Self expression and God directed and led opportunities to challenge, educate, lift up, and enlighten others.. I'm happiest when others are happy...... Hopefully help a few to travel on with a spring in their step, and a joy in their heart.... A joy that will trump any wordly happiness they may be seeking or believe they have found. We journey, for the most part, through an ever increasing, dangerous, angry and lost world.... This is not our home, people. We are only passing through... Our very purpose is to count and give thanks to God for our blessings and then move forward to make those blessings count for others.. I have and am daily, stumbling, falling, learning and discovering anew, God's forgivness, his great reasons, growth and purpose and wisdom for any stumbling or suffering endured and then claiming that for myself first and then others. One can not effectivally reach out and help anyone in any way unless they have understanding, worn their shoes, experienced their pain, felt their sorrow and then emerged out of the dark tunnel into the light... Christ did that..... He's our example....... Sometimes the light is blinding and there is no mistaking it...... Smooooooth sailing! Other times it's faint. So very difficult to see or even believe it's still there. That's when faith kicks in.... Eventually, the light will emerge and along with it comes a peace that passes all understanding, a wisdom that is not of this world. One from God's own perfect mind. One that this world calls foolish and for that I grieve but remain ever vigilent in attempting to show the huge inner and outer difference of choosing to live in God's ways and for him or the world... The choice for either, remains to each..
