I awoke in the middle of the night and wrote–
Life is to be lived in honoring God-loving and serving Him. This happens by honoring others–loving and serving them.
And it begins at home—just that simple.
For years I have wrestled with the knowing and the discovery of “what I am to be when I grow up”. I must have thought this process of being somebody or something was complicated or that it had to be quite the spectacular . . .
But now at 66, I realize just how simple it has always been. The being is in the everyday; the ‘be’ is in the becoming. I have worked so agonizingly to find the “perfect plan and place”–you know, just for me— that I have failed to rest in the journey of today.
“The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your love, O Lord endures forever–do not abandon the works of your hands.” Psalm 138:8
a journey to now 
My mind is filled with happy thoughts – – – all of you. Just wanted to let you know you brought
a smile to my day today.
I thank my God every time
I remember you. Phil 1:3
