GUMBO

"Growing up in south Louisiana, whenever a hurricane was coming, somebody would take out the cast-iron kettle, make a big pot of gumbo, and after battening down the hatches, invite the neighbors over to eat, tell stories, make merry, and ride out the storm together." (emphasis mine)

As For Me

This is, so much, the heart of my son and his girlfriend; and something I need to learn.  Can you feel the warmth? Fun? The un-aloneness? Survival?

It feels, to me, like something our society has let slip away. It feels like something our churches have let slip away.

What A Loss!

Give Me Such A Heart, God,
Lonnie
