Take my hand, walk with me
I know where I'm going.
Really, I do.
Sort of.
Okay, so I don't
Know exactly the route
We are going to take,
And if the way is . . .

The world is full
Of hurting people--
People who reach
For something more.
I cry to God,
"You know I want to be
More than I am.
To heal, to save
Everybody." . . .

"I think I've been depressed." I told my sister, Kathryn,
"Oh, I could've told you that." She informed me.
I swerved my head to read her eyes. "How'd . . .

Come on into our clique
Said the spider to the fly.
We will make you welcome.
(We won't make you die!)
Come and see things our way
It is not too hard.
We will talk of many things.

I've been getting a few new friends on Gather lately and I worry. I worry that after they have been friends with me a while they will discover that we are not always on the same page.

I was young, maybe nine or ten, when we moved to Palmetto, Louisiana in a little white house almost directly under the water tower.
My Daddy had been an unofficial preacher for years to everybody he . . .

On Feb. 11th, twenty-seven years ago, I met my husband.
About three months prior to that, I was living in Rising Star, Texas. A single young minister had come to visit. I liked him, . . .

When the Spirit of the Lord is strong upon me
I am fearless.
Do I need to face down a legion of demons?
Bring 'em on!
Do I need to walk on water?
Not a problem!
Do I need the wherewithal . . .

One last thought before I go
I leave you with.
We are all of the utmost
Importance to the Lord.
Let us not take ourselves
Too seriously.
But careful, now, let us not
Take ourselves too . . .

Lord,
I forgot to remember
that you have everything under control.
Forgive me for my doubt.

Okay, Lord. I admit it.
I slipped off the wagon.
You told me to think only about
Good, pure, beautiful, lovely things
To focus on the joy.
But today I threw
An angry, rampaging fit,

Lord, why do I
Do so many of
The things I do?
I want to do
So much better
Not because I,
As I might, fear
Eternal damnation.
But just because
I love you so
And I love people. . . .

A funny thing happened the other day. There was snow on the levee!
What made it funny for me is that the day before I commented on someone's Gather post that it never snowed in Louisiana. . . .

Fresh in the morning I wake up
Renewed in my body and mind.
Yesterday's pain is over now
Mercies anew, I find.
Tears of the past are gone away
Smiles of the past are, too.
All that I . . .

I look into your eyes and see your pain.
It must be horrible, living where you are.
You want to believe. You want it so badly.
But the so-called facts convince you otherwise.
I see darkness . . .

It's Tuesday. This is the week I get to judge all of the Easel Musings groups stories. (I know the Lord said 'judge not', but I'm sure he meant people, not what they do.) . . .

Peter wanted to cut somebody's ear off.
He was so mad, he was ready to fight.
The Lord told him, "That ain't right!"
Jesus took that man's ear, (The man with
That bunch who . . .
