Whenever I read your work I always feel like I actually needed your words without knowing it. Thank you for letting God work through you. It really is a blessing. 💛
Jae - I’ve been negligent in expressing my gratitude for your very kind words. I aspire to be of “much benefit” (Mosiah 8:18) to those who find my Stack. Joy to you!
Just today I received a letter in the mail from our electric company evaluating our energy usage compared to those that live near us. The words from the letter that were meant to be encouraging actually had quite the opposite effect on me… “Keep up the good work, you’re almost great!” ALMOST great?? Thank you for your timely message of encouragement to start stupid, even if we’re “almost” great.
We’ve got this, because He’s got us. All the best to you, my friend.
I really enjoyed this article. It helps me feel more confident in my unsure places. Knowing that I'm growing because I'm doing things I haven't done before, feeling things I haven't felt, and making connections is thrilling...and scary. Learning with real intent is something I've been attempting this last year. I too had a long list of "good ideas" that stayed in a journal until I realized that's all they were and it was time to put them to the test. Here's to 2025. Also, Cole made a friend on an HXP trip to Thailand, and he is Richie's son. :)
Thanks Amy! I love this so much. We see ourselves so unclearly at times (ok, most of the time.) And how cool is that that Cole met his son in Thailand!

I love this commentary. It rings true and gives me a shot of motivation to find the courage to make my feet move.
Thanks Bryan! Good wishes on your walk!
