This time last year, I was driving down the road in Oklahoma and I realized my life looked strangely unfamiliar to me. It was a very difficult time in my life. My future seemed so unclear and uncertainty seemed to loom around me. I must be honest and say that our future still seems unclear and our plans for the future are still rather uncertain.  But we are making our way through the changes as best we can and  with God’s grace we are seeing our way through slowly but surely. As many of you know, in the...

In Oklahoma, we live at the end of a long wooded, windy, gravel road.  It is peaceful, serene and simply picturesque.  At the end of the road sits John’s parents’ home.  We reside in the Cottage, as we like to refer to it, about 200 yards from them.  The view is spectacular and I have always said that if you can’t find peace here you simply can’t find it anywhere.
