Steps

Andrea and I went to the Kirsten Wolcott Memorial Walk in Virginia. The long drive was worth the few hours visiting with my generous cousins and the few hours we spent walking with the Wolcott family. I could have sat down for a good cry during most of the walk but no one else was crying. The people were overflowing with a peace and deep joy so strong it could only be from heaven. Their lack of bitterness made me want to let go of mine. I tend to excel at bitterness.



Restore to me the joy of Your salvation,
and uphold me by Your generous Spirit. 
Then I will teach transgressors Your ways, 
and sinners shall be converted to You.
Psalm 51:13,14
