Everything that is good in the world comes from love, land, and labor. ~ Van Jones My previous Yellow Brick Road posted on August 14. Today is Labor Day, September 5, 2022. This may be the longest time between posts EVER. Or perhaps it isn’t, but it has been (for sure) quite some time. […] The past few days have unfolded very differently from my plans. I had expected to share fish-fry with Linda and Larry and Linda and Fred and play Hand-and-Foot on Friday evening, and to make vegetable beef soup with my mother’s cornbread for dinner on Saturday with Janis and Larry. I planned a visit with Delcy […] Today is Monday, January 24, 2022. I wrote in my journal: Dear Holy Spirit, Three weeks ago today, on January 3, 2022, John had CABAG (open-heart, quadruple by-pass surgery). That feels otherworldly.

That evening we got to see the barn on the property at Bradyville. Soooooo happy for Brad and Christina! Three weeks feels like a lifetime. John received the Monoclonal Antibody Therapy […] John will receive Monoclonal Antibody Therapy today. Stacey recovered sufficiently to drive 2 and 1/2 hours from Smyrna to Cleveland, Tennessee, to be a support for our granddaughter, Courtney, after she and our great-grandson, Jackson, also tested positive for Covid. Four-generations navigating Covid…. not a claim-to-fame I would have chosen. At this time the […] Jesus came to teach many things, but forgiveness is chief among them. And yet with compassion there is nothing left to forgive. Forgiveness is only needed when there is something held against another, some kind of blame. When you see deeply into another, that judgment falls away and there is nothing left […] The other evening we were talking about our favorite childhood book/s. Mine was The Boxcar Children. It is a story about four orphaned siblings who must find a way to fend for themselves or risk being separated.The children have a grandfather they have never met, but they are afraid he is mean because he did […] |
