organized chaos

Me and crying don’t get along. It’s not that I’m insensitive, I’m just uncomfortable with displays of emotion that I have no control over. Actually, I feel things so deeply that I’m afraid once I start I won’t be able to stop.

We’ve sponsored two children through World Vision for as long as I can remember. Sometimes we barely have enough money to pay bills and get groceries, but we are so much richer than so many people in other countries and right here in the U. S.

Really, I could go on about this. For whatever reason, God has granted me a very soft heart toward people without enough. Enough to sustain life on. Just thinking about the state of some of these people’s lives and how they are forced to live is enough to bring me to tears. It’s very painful for me to consider such things. But I do what I can, and maybe someday God will grant me the resources to do more.

I found this new video by my very favorite songwriter, Sara Groves. I love this lady’s work. Her music is genuine and connective and I always love every CD she makes. She also seems to have a heart for struggling peoples and that’s the heart of this video. I hope you watch it.

I Saw What I Saw - Sara Groves

My man found this very short clip of this contortionist on YouTube. So naturally he thought of me, since I do this for guests and family all the time.

In fact this is me, in a disguise. My Man just thought it was high time I let you in on one of my hidden talents.

And here’s some philosophy from Jackelope for you to chew on.

” If I wasn’t a person,

I would be dark.”

Now, go forth and think noble thoughts.
