I have been thinking a lot and praying some over the forces we perceive giving structure to everything and coming back to "It's just God doing what God wills." All the structure- seasons and jobs and physics and homes- has been feeling like a wish.
Another wish: the best for you and Alex and Rory. Hope your barn is filled with comforting wishes.
Perhaps this is a Sabbath Rest time for you (or year of Jubilee if you prefer.) We get so hung up on productivity and doing, that we forget that the uncomfortable in-between may be just what we need for a time. Allow yourself the time and space to just be. It's ok.
I’m waiting to find out when the lay ministry formation program I’ve applied to will start; rather a liminal space it seems.
Your essay is wonderful and I’m so glad to hear that you are loving your new home. Please, whatever you do, keep writing. I love your work. Being an ELCA person, like me, is just a bonus.
I thought it was going to get dark while I read.

Thank you, Marty!!
Gaaah, thank you, dear friend! We miss you guys.
Likewise. I have a fantasy visit to you guys that is planned in my head except for the when part. If we get to a when, I'll reach out.
Yes, open invitation!!
I trust that. To be honest, sitting on a porch and hearing one of your sermons sounds great.
