I saw a dream today. In the wind she came to me- made my heart feel free, put my mind at ease- the simple thought of world peace. Of children singing songs and hearing no more bombs. Of one love in this shared land- people holding hands- leaving ... Read more >

The following letters are a cry against the injustice I have seen in our social systems against the homeless. I believe God's heart is so very tender for the 'least of these' and that He has shared His burden for the poor with me and I will spend the ... Read more >
