400 Plus

When you meet the thickest darkness in life, pray for the brightest light.” ― Ernest Agyemang Yeboah  

Def: Dark  -8: closed to the public “Life is dark in shutdown”

Over 400 days Terry and I have been living in this new land of shutdown. Even with vaccines, things remain fuzzy on what is allowed and not allowed. For sure this time is the first darkness we have had hit us that has lasted over a year in length. When our nation was shut down in early March 2020, people were sentenced to stay home with their children and a virus spread across our country. Both Liberals and Conservative have their slant on the last year. For Terry and me, it has brought us closer… closer to God and to each other. Never did we believe we would be tested with times like those from the Bible. 

This morning in my reading from Seed Bed came the words, “Why Don’t We Live in America Anymore?”   The next phrase was “We must let go of America’s good ol’ days…” 

Terry and I have sought the light almost every day. We both had our days of darkness creeping in, and the other one would light the way out of that darkness. Even our tempers flared at times.  If you want to read how we did it, read more here.



“And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil.” John 3:19
