When the news is good to great...

When the news is good to great... The idea that expression, in written form, is good for the soul has always intriqued me. Are we more alive when we identify that conflict exists? If you are connected to the One, the Savior...He who shed His Blood, hung upon The Cross...will it make us any more aware of this conflict situation? You know it needs to be expressed, with truth, with compassion and with empathy. We need to be the hope of redemption, the church that truly lives the Good News, the Gospel, and gives this wounded, fallen world a way to go. Let's proclaim it in our homes, in the streets, in the marketplace, at school, here and there and everywhere we go with the Spirit of the Living God sealed in our hearts. An interesting thing happened when the guard came down...vulnerable, confession, truth and some not so easy to accept. Competition seems to churn through this chapter in a way that requires an amount of distance, or at least a respite and reflection moment in silence. Listening for the voice of Him, needing counsel, hoping for peace...somewhat desperate for assurance. Trusting in the Word. Knowing the Truth, living in Believing.

Praising God that you've had some good news. Not sure what it is but excited for you all the same. Missing you all. How about we meet up in Plainwell with all the fams and hit Applebee's sometime soon? Is it a date?
 
hey Shelly...we would love to do that...Patty says to set a date. I know you girls seem to do that very well, but here we go...how about next Wednesday the 24th at 6:00pm?
