Reed Between The Lines: Right Where I Am
http://www.reedbetweenthelines.org/2014/11/right-where-i-am.html
Friday, November 14, 2014. Right Where I Am. If I had the time to write as I want to…what would I even say? To summarize all the thoughts that float in and out (quickly) of my momma-weary mind…the task seems too daunting…. So I write nothing. But I still long to. I still long to be fully alive – to live fully right where I am.even if where I. I heard it said once that. We need to stop seeing things as interruptions to. Our day and see unplanned moments AS. This little sea of constant need. Lord remind me...

Reed Between The Lines: February 2015
http://www.reedbetweenthelines.org/2015_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 24, 2015. Aunty’s hands glide over the aloo tikka she is lovingly making. Watching her cook is like watching a dance. She is in her element – making food from recipes that have taken decades to perfect to serve to the people she loves. She is dancing because she is fully alive. Learning how to live in a new culture after 30 years on the other side of the world feels so much. More like falling flat. But how we long to dance. So these days we are asking ourselves,. Thanks for stopping by!

Reed Between The Lines: August 2015
http://www.reedbetweenthelines.org/2015_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 24, 2015. Like a Seal on My Arm. For 2 full years I sat in the refiners fire – all manner of things being painfully removed and cast aside…praying one day for Gold. I had spent all this time finding out who I was not, who I didn’t need to be. I felt every piece come away. The only thing that remained was Who He Is, and who I am because of it. Just as I am formed from the dust, dust is all I am. But I am Beloved dust. I am my Beloved’s – and my Beloved is mine. Free from my narrow world view.

Reed Between The Lines: July 2015
http://www.reedbetweenthelines.org/2015_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 22, 2015. She welcomed me into her community. This stranger with even stranger customs who towered over her and struggled to say the simplest things. Her kindness shone like a beacon on hard, hard days. As our entire community lined the streets to mourn her and support those left behind, I still struggled to figure out how I fit into this place. Would my presence be confusing since I did not know her or her family well? Speak with men they do not know, especially on the street! She was no...

Reed Between The Lines: Monsters and a Call to War
http://www.reedbetweenthelines.org/2014/09/monsters-and-call-to-war.html
Wednesday, September 17, 2014. Monsters and a Call to War. Our three year old is currently a little obsessed with monsters. A few months ago at bed time she prayed:. Fank you for food like ketchup and rice. Which is all she would eat at the time). And for monsters…. In my closet… right there. 8220;Jesus was saving us from the monsters? Monsters have sharp teeth and long claws.”. And as I assured her that monsters were not real…I started to wonder…. Is that really the truth? Live in a war zone. Satan.

Friday, December 19, 2014. Sometimes there are now words. But the images from the last 2 weeks will always remain. We said Farewell For Now. To 2 years in our new home….

Reed Between The Lines: October 2014
http://www.reedbetweenthelines.org/2014_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 23, 2014. A river of trouble has run through her life, and as the unrelenting current swept over her, she fell into my shoulder and cried. Because it’s been broken arms and factory accidents and tropical illnesses and four children to clothe and feed and send to school and long days with no end in sight. And now her son in the hospital with doctor bills looming over her. She has become our family on this side of the ocean. I want to tell her what Ann Voskamp said:. The One whose heart w...
