Fear

Everyone here lives in fear of my mother. We do a dance for her. Even the cats. She is mentally ill and dangerous. I am praying for Jesus to find her and lead her to seek treatment for her lifelong illness. Instead of seeking refuge in mine.

Sorting it out

Well today has been a watershed day, I believe it is called a red letter day; yesterday was the watershed.
