For a while there I saw clearly, as in looking into a pool or a mirror. I only lasted for a little while. I looked and I saw myself as I want to be seen and known and loved. I saw an outpouring of my own heart of hearts touching others; and I watched how my joy fell like glitter upon the others present.
I saw myself the way I want to be seen, giving what I have and loved despite my faults. Cheriched among my own. A tool of the Father, meant to love – no more no less.
Jumijärvi is my second home and those young people and leaders my folks. I treassure you dearly and ask Father to keep you wise and safe. At moments like last week’s camp I realize life is Bigger and Better – not pumped up but full of reality and mystery bound together. For a while I dare to dream of the things I want to do in life. They are not mundane.
