Susan LaffertyI took it for granted growing up. A sense of humor was encouraged and nurtured in our home.
Laughter has refreshed my heart often in the years since. And humor helps me endure. Persevere. Through the mundane. And when the going gets tough.
The challenge given to us that day was purposeful. Powerful.
To stay in the Word like our lives depend on it. Because they do. And to speak the Word like their lives depend on it. Because they do.
We caught the urgency. To share with the millions. And with the neighbor across the street.
Ancient paths. The image fixed in my mind is a smooth clay trail in the bamboo forest. A path of my childhood. Worn by years of feet traveling from one ridge to the next. Winding through the valley. Around boulders and past simple thatch homes.
It’s an old path. A good path. That takes me where I need to go.
