Whoa - ten years have passed. So much water under the bridge that there's been a sea change. Lots of trial, tribulation, rough sailing. Divorce, bankruptcy, career reset, cancer, recovery from cancer. And, some wonderful things. Five beautiful grandchildren. Answered prayers. Finally, a soul mate.
In the midst of all of it, there were times when I couldn't think, or write. I didn't have any thoughts worth sharing. Still not back to where I used to be. Maybe I never will be: I can't turn back the clock, and I have scars from some of the fights I've had. Many, many people have had a worse time - my road has been rough and rocky, but not impassable.
At this age, with all that has happened, I think the advice of St. Paul applies - to focus not on what is behind, but on the prize - the finish line. After all, Lot's wife was turned into a pillar of salt - Why? Because she looked behind at what she was leaving.
Pray for me, please.
Peace,
Miserable Offender

Hey Miserable Offender. I was away from my blog for ten years as well. But I see you've been away from this one since 2016; five years, almost six. Anyway, from one Anglican to another, God bless and Happy New Year!
Fr. Paul
