Matthew 15:14 - Do not listen to them, for they are blind guides. And if the blind lead the blind, will not both fall into the ditch? Out our way, as you may recall, we often have tourists driving through the area on their way to Glacier National Park. Granted, the Bear Paws are not as spectacular as the Rockies, nor do we have the multi-millionaires from California and Texas building their majestic mansions along the way.

Let me tell you a story about a very wealthy rancher who lived a long time ago. He and his wife had 10 children, a thriving ranch teeming with herds and flocks.

Now I can say without hesitation: almost nothing turned out as I expected. “I can also say that I have lost my faith that things would be the way I wanted. Instead, I have found faith in the redempt...
We count the days and then the weeks - though 'lone-ness' feels like years. A picture, dream, or special thought is sure to bring on tears. As parent, child, sibling, or spouse; will we survived this pain? They're gone ahead; they're just 'beyond'! We'll see them once again. Grief and onions - do they compare? Peel one, you'll cry a lot. This time of grief, will we survive? It's not what we've been taught. We're not to panic, hurry, hide; we'll 'peel' - not hold tears in. God...
