Courage Like Esther

 Our family has been hearing from the Father that we should reach out more.       -that we need to be His hands and feet      -that God can use us even as the unique and peculiar people we are.  We are still determining exactly what that means, and how to do it.  It is so quiet and comfortable here on the mountain. My husband has lived here his whole life. As a young child, he spent hours playing alone in the yard. When he was a teenager he would often escape into the woods for days. He would take a few packages of Ramen Noodles and a fishing pole and hop on his dirt bike. I have lived here for 22 years now, and I understand why it is so hard for him to leave this hill. Our girls are young adults and love this mountain as much as their Dad. Our 11-year-old son is the only extrovert in the family, but, even he prefers to stay home.   The trees never complain about our singing and never interrupt us when we share our thoughts out loud...
