Merry Christmas my friends!

Betty White and John Madden in the same week! 😔😔😔 #RIP

If you haven’t watched The Alpinist on #netflix you’re missing something extraordinary! Wow!

ADVERSITY IS A GIFT Adversity demands honesty! Honesty about yourself, about others and about life. Honesty, in the end, always leads to more freedom. Let adversity do its work. Don’t be afraid of it, don’t numb it away, Stare it down! It’s not an indictment, it’s an invitation!

Who needs enemies, when you got friends like this!

“Brokenness is an inevitable part of your story. And it is not something to be hidden or numbed away or ashamed of. Shame has zero healing properties. There is not one thing redemptive about shame.” ✌🏼Chad Bruegman✌🏼

I'm far from fully realizing this yet, but it's my prayer of faith every morning: May the Kingdom of God be my passion, my guide, my instinct, my reflex, my classroom, my accountability and my government. Amen.

I can't stop watching this...

The older I get, the more this proves true: Honesty is the fist step in all problem solving. Probably the final step as well.

Forgiving someone is akin to salvation. It's both an authentic decision in a moment & also a life long journey. The initial decision to forgive takes a lot of bravery, and the ongoing decision to to let go takes a lot of trust. Give yourself grace in the process, you're growing!

Pearly Young, 77, was killed today in #Buffalo shopping for groceries. For 25 years she ran a pantry where every Saturday she fed people in Central Park. Every. Saturday. She loved singing, dancing, & being with family. She was mother, grandma, & missionary. Gone too soon 🕊
