It is interesting to think what he would have done were he still here.Sheri Ellwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12521018942479639251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5083638296820168853.post-85041251673821533272011-10-03T17:49:20.856-05:002011-10-03T17:49:20.856-05:00It's interesting to think about, but I probabl...It's interesting to think about, but I probably wouldn't be here with my little farm trying to change a corner of the world if it wasn't for Matt. He recommended Tom Brown's books to me, and, well, it's been an interesting journey from there. And I too keep wishing I could see all the things he would have done by now.Charlenenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5083638296820168853.post-14606069136648211202011-10-01T09:27:05.859-05:002011-10-01T09:27:05.859-05:00Thanks Lynn and Laurie.

Yet we believe that not only is the light there but that God can work through us to fan the flame and diminish the darkness.Sheri Ellwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12521018942479639251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5083638296820168853.post-40585113652379699102011-09-30T21:34:30.244-05:002011-09-30T21:34:30.244-05:00Thanks, Sheri...it's always difficult to compr...Thanks, Sheri...it's always difficult to comprehend good coming from suffering. I too, appreciate your vulnerability and what you're able to give to the rest of us because you have lost deeply and yet not lost hope. It's tough to see the light sometimes, but that doesn't mean the light isn't there.Laurie Hesednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5083638296820168853.post-2570517446703908022011-09-29T16:00:23.646-05:002011-09-29T16:00:23.646-05:00Yes!

This isn't pie in the sky hope, or hope that denies grief and suffering, but hope that is rooted in the harsh and beautiful realities of this life - this hope can indeed change our world....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
