Back In My Place

I worked so hard during the divorce to defy the severing.  Refusing to accept the trajectory of anger and brokenness that is presumed when a marriage breaks down,  I chose words thoughtfully, managed timings carefully, not wanting either of my children or my then husband to be left with the memory of him walking away

Wrestling

Goodness…He knows how we  always wrestle…how we remember and long for Him as a deeply buried but constantly held memory of how we began, how we were created to be: one and in total peace and harmony with Him, no separation, no divide, held in continual, unbroken Love with Him. But there’s so much noise
