I meditate on God's life and I read the scriptures. I read something about Him, go through it and spend a lot of time by myself.
I chalk up the fact that I got diabetes to my body saying, 'Dude, you have been doing wrong for way too long!'
I'm not the kind of writer who's able to block out the world around me. I'm mindful of our own haves and have-nots, how our culture often blames and punishes the have-nots. I worry about our precarious economic and political climate.
