A Christ Follower: The Journey

The Psalmist once wrote the following words from the deep part of his heart:   "Trust in HIM at all times you people; pour out your heart before HIM; God is a refuge for us."    It seems that when He wrote this Psalm (62:5), he knew a very important secret about language.  Sometimes language is a frustrating tool.  You know what I mean.  Don't you.  When we want to express the deepest thoughts of our hearts, words simply fail us.

Oh... I didn't mention the name did I?  Sorry.  No can do.  Have to protect the identity; however I know you need some kind of identity.  So, you may ask, "Who is he?  Good question.  The only thing is he is not a he at all.  She is an 88 year old great grandmother who is coming to the end of her journey but still a hero in my book.  (By the way.  I did not get this story from her.)  True h
