Do you ever wonder if you do any good in this old world? If your contribution matters? I do. All the time. Which is a problem, because it is not about me. “It” is any and everything I do from flossing my teeth, to blowing off running, to listening to the heart of someone. Driving the speed limit, embracing a red-streaked-haired rebel, praying for my kids…not about me. And neither is this blog. “It” is about you and me doing life purposefully. Just so happens that my purpose is to live for a God I cannot see, but that is so doggone present, that denying he exists seems INCONCEIVABLE! (Take that, Inigo Montoya!)
Sometimes I have no words. And this is why today, I am yielding this blog to someone else-who does not know me-but we are “family”.
His name is Brant and he wrote a blog about “Dealing with Crazy Christians“. After 40+ years of being a wee left of center and last night’s diving into the sewage of 9/11 conspiracy theories...he says what I wish I could say if I could say it in love…and humor. Please check it out-we are not related by anything but a life lived a long time ago. And if it offends you, please feel free to call me and tell me. You will be heard and loved.
I’ll leave the light on for you.

I thought it was quite good — told truthfully, lovingly, and with humor. He is right God loves all his/her creations – even if we fail to do so.
