You want to hear something that got to me today?

Today we went to church for Good Friday. Second year we've done this activity or event. It goes on all day and people just show up when they want. There are rooms set up for reflection and prayer and some activity to do or thing to look at. and each one is a station of the cross. There's a big booklet we get and with each station, there is a verse, a longer scripture passage and a place we can write what we're feeling that pertains to that station.

At one we take communion. My kids and my favorite part is when we get to write things we want forgiveness for on paper, fold it and nail into a big wooden cross. Near the end was a big "tomb" that we went to sit in and you see what was supposed to be the buriel cloth of Jesus. It's a really quiet time, not supposed to talk, lights are low and no more then a few people at each station at a time.

I have said on here all week that I kept hearing God tell me, "Be still and know that I am God".

So guess what the very first verse in the station book was when I opened it?

I cried.

picture of Terri a couple of years after the accident. Does this look like a vegetable? This picture was taken a couple years after the "accident" - before all therapy was forbidden.
