Spring!
Winter is almost over I can't wait I feel like I live in a dark cave in the winter Ohio weather can be so grey and dreary and depressing I love the spring !
New beginnings... New growth
Darrell and I started on a walking program this morning We were supposed to get up at 5:00 but one of us didn't roll out of bed until 6:30 :) We'll see how long we last this time It's so hard to stay motivated We're trying to get rid of our "winter fat"
We met a guy at DLM this morning who was buying a "grass shot" He normally grows his own but he ran out I don't think I'm up for that Darrell was getting the scoop on how you grow it and make it I have a feeling I'll be seeing a juicer in the kitchen soon (even though he's highly allergic to grass and takes allergy shots)
I'm reading a book right now that I would highly recommend It's called "God in the Alley" I found it at Borders last week when I went to see Bethany Dillon It's written by Greg Paul
Sam has survived physical,sexual, and substance abuse,terrible violence, and life on the streets. Wendy lives for the next high on crack, oblivious to her boyfriend's love. Neil is dying of AIDS.
These are the people of inner city Toronto Look into their distorted obscure faces their fractured lives and catch a glimpse of the sublime. Greg Paul calls them tragic heroes---individuals who can offer a testament to God's love and mercy.
With emotional depth and spiritual internsity, Greg's compelling stories reveal that people with desperate lives have precious lessons to teach us about the character of God. "God in the Alley" offers a profound message of grace and calling that each one of us needs to hear.
It takes you out of "safe Springboro" and shows you the reality of inner city life and ministry--something I think we all need a dose of.
