Making A Difference

October 8, 2011
Today I presented my story, 
My life, 
to the 5th & 6th graders at Valley Center Intermediate School.  

It's so important to me for the kids to realize some of the long-term effects of bullying.  

How a word, 
something that seems so simple, 
so insignificant, 
that we are so careless with, 
can cut just like a knife, 
can leave scars just as bad.  

Can damage & destroy one's psyche,
one's complete sense of self-worth.  

Doing my part. 

Making a difference.

Allowing God To Use Me

September 24, 2011
Bullying.
How cowardly.
Such a horrific epidemic.
Often with tragic consequences.

As God uses me,
Uses my story,
My circumstances,
As I bear my cross for all to see.

May He use me,
Use my story,
My past,
My tragedy.

To make a positive difference to others.

May I be able to 

 IMPACT,


 INSPIRE,


 INFLUENCE,


 EDUCATE,


With my story.
 
By The Grace Of God.

I Honestly Don't Know

September 6, 2011
I know so little.
I am definitely the first to ADMIT that.

Each day.
Every situation.
Every encounter.

Brings more questions for 

GOD
.


About what 

HE 


wants.  About what

HIS

desires are for us.  And though I know

HE 


always hears me when I call out to

HIM,

The answer, the reason,  
is not always clear.

It's as if 

HE,
 
in

HIS

infinite wisdom, knows we're not ready, that we wouldn't "get" it, not yet.

So 

HE

keeps it to 

HIMSELF

for now.  One day soon, all will be revealed.

But we should keep asking questions.  
We shoul...

Wonder

August 28, 2011
I look up at your macro-skies, dark & enormous, your handmade sky-jewelry, moons & stars mounted in their settings. I look at my micro-self & wonder, Why do you bother with us? Why take a 2nd look our way?  Psalm 8:3-4
