Our lives are a journey that we walk together not in order to become "good christian women," but rather to draw near to God so that we can reflect His light to those around us. Our stories, our paths, our dreams and our message are all unique. But we hold hands and walk boldly, fearlessly......onward...creating joy, hope, faith and peace in our wake.

Simple

I had lunch out with my college son.  He's only here a few more days.  I admire his courage at going back to school.  And of how he does it though he'd rather be around the familiar.  He has my admiration and respect.  He does what many adults do not....he chooses what is best.  I'm glad for him.  But, I see in his eyes the pain of getting geared up to "do it again."  New classes.  New professors.  I was nervous each new semester.
But, having lunch with him...just the two of us...was so simple but so very nice.
I don't require much.  My needs are kind of simple.  Mostly...I need peace.  I am learning that that isn't simple anymore.  Breaks my heart.
grace to you.
