Life at the Wee Cottage in the Woods.....Our memories can be a garden of delight as well as a garden of pain. Some days we walk through this garden and stop and enjoy those memories that bring us joy...that bring a smile to our hearts. Some days we pause at those moments that are painful...at the memories of things that have hurt us. Together these memories make up the tapestry of our life woven in rich colors as well as subdued colors. The overall effect is of who we are in this journey of life.
The purpose of this blog is to capture the garden of my life with photographs, inspirational quotes, stories of life, recipes of friends and family shared, and my own thoughts. This site is my legacy in my words and photos............. |

Good Friday
I see out of the darkness into the light and love of God.
Friday, April 19, 2019
Commemorating Jesus’ crucifixion on Good Friday can seem contradictory to positivity. What good can I possibly find on this dark day? I find it through admiration and gratitude for the courage of Jesus, who always knew his ministry could end in arrest and execution. Still he persisted, teaching all who we truly are—God expressing in physical form just as he did. He showed what divine love looks like and modeled how to live a human life grounded in divine nature.
I do not turn away from any seeming darkness in my human experience. Instead, I contemplate where any shadows may lie.
Good Friday is my reminder of redemption, knowing good can result from even my most difficult days.
Father, into your hands I commend my spirit.—Luke 23:46
