Grief

Posted on April 28, 2020 by Kelly Patterson

I didn’t cry ugly hard when my mom died. People say I’m strong and I am. I did cry appropriately, but then I dried my tears, washed my face and went on with life. Until several months later, when a friend asked me to pick her up at the airport. Happy as can be, I … Continue reading Grief

My Nature Walk

Posted on September 15, 2019September 15, 2019 by Kelly Patterson

My bible study assignment was to find God in nature. I headed out for my walk in search of a “God experience” in nature. I headed toward a quiet pond, but my walk took me past the largely Hispanic populated trailer community where I have met so many wonderful people. As I walked, I began … Continue reading My Nature Walk

Be Still

Posted on October 12, 2018October 12, 2018 by Kelly Patterson

I am a doer…a shaker…a mover. It is easier for me to “do”, than to “sit” in what I am doing. I am task oriented. I think many of us are. So, when God calls me to be still, it is a difficult assignment. I wait anxiously for my next assignment. “What are we going … Continue reading Be Still

Dance

Posted on June 19, 2018September 15, 2019 by Kelly Patterson

This week, whether I am quieting my mind to listen to God, praying, or scrolling through Facebook posts, wherever I turn, the same word keeps coming to me...DANCE. But God, I don't feel like dancing......"Dance." But God, I am so very sad.........."Dance." But God, a dear family lost their son this week. It would be … Continue reading Dance

Reflection

Posted on May 20, 2018May 20, 2018 by Kelly Patterson

Going through an old journal, I came across something I wrote in 2011: Father, when you see my face, do you see Your face too? I’m such a dim reflection of the Light I’ve found in You.   Father when you search my thoughts, does the love You give shine through? Have I emptied me … Continue reading Reflection

Dear Momma

Posted on May 9, 2018May 9, 2018 by Kelly Patterson

I wrote this letter to read to the moms at the Center of Hope shelter on Sunday, Mother's Day. It's almost a letter to myself as we prepare to launch our latest young adult. Hope you enjoy. Dear Momma, I see you with that baby, so cuddly and sweet. Don’t you love baby sounds, the cooing … Continue reading Dear Momma

Running from God

Posted on April 26, 2018May 2, 2018 by Kelly Patterson

I ran, and ran, and ran. I ran from God for a ridiculous amount of time. I was always running or hiding, but in my heart of hearts, I knew He was pursuing me. That’s what God does. He pursues us … even while we're feigning indifference or choosing outright rebellion. He waits. And while … Continue reading Running from God
