Ah Leah… this is just so beautiful! Your journey is inspirational, and I’m sure your words were a gift to all. I am trying to move beyond the more formal and doctrinal view that I have of the Lord and toward a more welcoming and open relationship. So much of my upbringing in an Irish Catholic and military family has influenced my faith. It’s a strong faith, but more formal than I wish it to be. Reading and knowing great folks like you continues to uplift me, and I thank you!

That was inspirational. A dear friend told me Jesus wants an up close personal relationship with each of us. I’ve been under Grace, blessed. I get entangled by my participation in a world I want to

Direct to another way.

“Bend” like the big trees in the wind. Their strength is in their flexibility. Their strength comes from strong roots and character. The rigid breaks.

The only peace in this life is Jesus. Once I invited in the Holy Spirit into my life my work home relations

Life has become a constant thanksgivings.

Our Father who Art in Heaven… Hallowed Be his Name… the Lord’s Prayer is soothing.

Paper God becomes experiential always present

Even tho we all stray we return.

In the big picture the Spiritual war is very real.

If we don’t bend to thy will we will be broken by the world.
