In my attempt to find something fresh and new for each day of May, I happened across the above meme. I’m not a big Star Wars Fan, but the phrase May the force be with you, will always require the Lutheran in me to respond with, “and also with you.” I would guess this would also be a Catholic response, and maybe Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian, etc., etc., etc.,
Isn’t it funny how words and specific sentences can garner automatic responses from our past. As a Lutheran, I learned to recite the liturgy, so I would be able to respond without looking at the words. Soon those words became rote and lost their punch. So, in the spirit of Star Wars, with a Lutheran touch, my wish for you is that the true force will be with you, and also with me.
As I reach the end of my years, I find I have a lot of good information stored up in this old decrepit mind of mine. If I don't write it all down, it may vanish and no one will have the advantage of my thoughts. This is why this blog exists. I love the Lord, Jesus with all my heart and soul. I know I'm undeserving of all He's done for me, but I also know that His love is beyond my comprehension.
I've always wanted to write. I never kept diaries, but tucked my thoughts in my head for future reference. I use them now in creating stories, plays, poetry and my blog.
I continue to learn every day. I believe the compilation of our time spent with God will have huge affect on the way we live. I know I'm a sinner and I need a Savior. I have One through Jesus, Christ.
My book, "Stages - a memoir," is about the seven stages of life from the perspective of a woman. It addresses all the things girls and women go through in life as they travel it with Jesus, and it is available on Amazon.com.

Life is a patchwork of moments — laughter, solitude, everyday joys, and quiet aches. Through scribbled stories, I explore travels both far and inward, from sunrise over unfamiliar streets to the comfort of home. This is life as I see it, captured in ink and memory. Stick around; let's wander together.
God's amazing grace removes walls and replaces those barriers with Jesus, freedom from sin's consequences, freedom to forgive, and freedom to love unconditionally.

Lutherans are not the only ones that say that, but Presbyterians get confused as to when to say “And also with you.” Sometimes it can get awkward.
