I'm feeling convicted to try and give up the computer for Lent too. I just don't know though. Sometimes I think it is really good for me and other times I think it is my worst vice. Ugh.
Don's story is beautiful. Makes my heart ache and long to...do more. Being open that way, to God, to people, to the pain and the joy that God offers, to disciplines that will purify and strengthen us...I'm always awed by the few people I've met that are like that. It is so easy to start closing down, internalizing, not hearing the cries of the world anymore when the cries in our own houses and minds are so loud. This is an inspiring post. Thank you for sharing all of this.
