To you, dear readers

I just wanted to drop a note here to you, the readers of my words:

I have prayed for you.

 

Few come to this blog for casual, happy reasons.

Many people who read what I write are probably wading the cold, dark waters of heartbreak.

A couple of days after I share a post here, I come back to see how many people have read my words. I look at those numbers, and I think of the weariness and sorrow they likely represent, and I pray for every person represented by the data.

I pray for comfort, and rest, and hope for you and for your families.

I pray that you will feel seen, and a little less alone on this hard road.

I am grateful for every one of you who comes here and reads what I have written.

Your presence here comforts and encourages me. Thank you.
