The courage to care…
The commitment to create safe spaces for others is messy work, but it connects us and heals us. When we open the door for honesty, humility, and authenticity there is both great risk and great power. Safe spaces don’t always fix things, but they always allow us to know we are not alone. And that’s not nothing!

Setting sail…
But maybe it isn’t the need or the love of others, I should be considering. What if, rather than focusing on others love for me, I focused on my love for them. What if instead of need, I relied on love to motivate and engage my world. Not the world’s love for me, or my need to be loved and safe, but my love for others.

In the company of women…
I find myself at this moment in my life feeling as though some things that are both familiar and good no longer seem to fit.

Be strong and courageous…
To allow the Word of God to strengthen me, to meditate on it, to study it, to let it take up residence in my heart. Maybe this is what empowers me to Be strong.. to Be courageous… to not be afraid.. or give way to discouragement.

Jesus saw their faith… (Mark 2:1-5)
They dug a hole in the roof to get their friend to Jesus. They simply refused to let anything get between them and Jesus. It seems that this really isn’t a story about the paralytic, but a statement about what faith looks like.

Of Jesus and His Love…
I look around at these folks, and see folks. People just trying to walk it out. Folks with baggage, and wounds, limping along, doing the best they can.

What God has joined together…
Marriage is not for the faint of heart. It can be a street fight for truth, respect, humility, and love. Those of us on the sidelines would do well to remember that we don’t really know… what goes on behind the four walls of a home.
