Some Thoughts
Why Waiting on God
I have been asked why I named my BLOG “Waiting on God?” It comes from the novel I am writing called “HoJo: Waiting on God.” I am slowly working on this book and I find that just like my main character in the book I am still, even though I am nearly 69, waiting on God for direction and strength.
Freedom is Not Free
While we specifically remember, on this particular day, those who gave their all ... I think I am beginning to realize the depth of the trauma for those who gave, but still came home. The losses they witnessed are not to be minimized. They may not be able to talk about what they saw ... who they lost ... what they endured ... and how their lives have been profoundly impacted by those experiences, without a tremendous amount of support and acceptance, and help ... to begin to heal.
Pentecost 2023
Today is Memorial Day in the United States of America. This is the day we set aside to remember and pay our respects to all those who have given their lives protecting the people and freedoms of this great country. While you do this, take time to thank God for the thousands upon thousands of people who have given their lives, and still do, for the Gospel of Christ. They are the heroes of the church.
