What is mercy?  I asked myself that question one day, and on another day it just made perfect sense to me.  Mercy is truth reveal.  God is so patient with us.  He is patient in how He guides our awareness into truth, and He is patient in our acceptance of truth (1/2/22 in His light). His patience is so patient, it is almost like His faith is in us (1/2/21 …that we will make sense of it all in time and at most be grateful for each step.)   (4/17/24 This talk came to me, and I am growing deeper in understanding of mercy  https://youtu.be/SGS7Dz1Ez7o?si=Ew0OwHLVDRX-BKks ) (1/4/22 And when you reach the depths of that kind of gratitude, the waiting begins to become weightless. #waitless I just had this thought - could the feeling of waiting on God actually be Him truly waiting on us?  He draws us nearer, but our steps nearer are our choice.)  That’s how I answered my own question.  [1/11/22 Mercy is God’s truth.  People have the power to con...

This day I am remembering was like any other, I did not wake up with the thought about a tattoo.  I have never had any opinion of tattoos other than - I cannot see my personality in a tattoo.  I can see my personality in a hairbow, rather.  This same ordinary day was like no ordinary other, either.  I have witnessed my loved ones bravely battle cancer, but I did not understand the war.  They battled the war themselves, and I only recognized them in their grace.  I was invited one day, and I will never forget how I was received when I arrived: “You’re the only one who could make me laugh right now.” - Leanna  She had won her first battle, and she was in the midst of surveying her second, though, this was a more forceful one.  I waited alone as she was called back to scan her brain for metastasis.  She informed me before she was called behind the door we were getting tattooed together afterwards.  I did not wake up knowing I was going to r...

Matt and I sat down to breakfast, and he told me the news buzzing about this trending children’s book.   It was a strange news story.  I also had to come to terms this was trending news; it did not feel important, just urgent.  I was curious, and I watched a read-aloud of the story to a group of children.  The look of real confusion on even a child’s face in the audience was not surprising.  What is the true intention of publishing a children’s book that takes the reality of imagination too far? What is the true intention of a community embracing it? What is the true intention of publicizing the book and its response in mass media?  It is a title published and being recognized within a genre it does not belong, in my opinion.  It is a title for adults to ponder the confusion over, not children.   I asked Matt in response: What is the matter with being who we are created to be (reality) and encouraging expression within that true reality yet still ...
