Genesee County Matters: A life of expression for a larger harmony...
http://suefrownfelter.blogspot.com/2014/09/a-life-of-expression-for-larger-harmony.html
Tuesday, September 09, 2014. A life of expression for a larger harmony. I have been thinking a lot about what it means to “express” what is on our minds or on our hearts. Express. What does the word we use rather freely even really mean? I googled and discovered this: convey (a thought or feeling) in words or by gestures and conduct. Expression is defined as the process of making known one's thoughts or feelings. What of those who choose to express. What of those that express. Give me a break! But then I...

Thursday, September 04, 2014. As his zen koan sunk in. If you are given a mango. just eat it and enjoy the taste. Don't bother about the size of the tree or how many years it took to grow - otherwise you will miss the taste, the essence of mango-ness! And I just continued to stare at him wondering what point he was attempting to make with his zen koan. When one is longing for a nice, tall glass of iced tea, however, that cold glass of water falls a little short. In almost every area - or at least too man...

Thursday, August 21, 2014. Defining community in the wake of pushing for it. For the last four weeks – or so – I have sat in church services focusing on community; the need for community, the role of community, what community is supposed to look like, what the leadership wants it to look like. Every service, every week. We all leave the services nodding our heads affirmatively, hoping in our hearts that this would be true – but knowing deeper down in our hearts that it is not. How do members of the.

Saturday, August 09, 2014. When I entered the Saint-Étienne de. In Metz, it was as though my heart lead me to the source of these angelic sounds - and I sat among the other saints and sinners who also found themselves in the presence of the supernatural. Though I knew not the words, tears filled my eyes - with a beyond-me all encompassing joy. And I could have listened there in that eternal moment for the rest of my life. It is well,. With my soul.". It is well,. Posted by sue frownfelter. 8220;Souls lov...

Friday, September 12, 2014. Hoping for something more. When we feel suffering, it doesn’t mean that something is wrong. What a relief. Finally somebody told the truth. Suffering is part of life, and we don’t have to feel it’s happening because we personally made the wrong move. I wrestle a lot with the idea of hope - or maybe it is the experience of hope. And yet, how in the world can a person wrestle with "hope? Ahhhh yes heaven . Where there will be no challenges or pain or suffering. So few of the cha...

Genesee County Matters: The undertow of love...
http://suefrownfelter.blogspot.com/2014/09/the-undertow-of-love.html
Thursday, September 18, 2014. The undertow of love. So my spiritual advisor likened it to Lucy and Charlie Brown, Lucy promising to hold the football for her dear friend Charlie Brown, him believing her - again - and then regathering himself to finally experience kicking a football like he has always dreamed. I mean after all, there aren't that many episodes! That is how my advisor described it. My description was more direct: it's like being invited to come close, I do, then I'm slapped. Time an...I rea...

Wednesday, July 06, 2011. Detroit News gets it right with identifying Flint's aura. She's so mean but I don't care. I love her eyes and her wild wild hair. Dance to the beat that we love best. Heading for the nineties. Living in the wild wild west. The wild wild west. Well, so it isn't the nineties, but I am telling you I SAW the mean chick and "her wild, wild hair" as I drove down Grand Traverse the other day. I'm telling you, she was packing heat! Heck, we ALL are! She got that right! Donnelly's piece ...

Genesee County Matters: Surrendering to the Guiding Hand...
http://suefrownfelter.blogspot.com/2014/09/surrendering-to-guiding-hand.html
Tuesday, September 02, 2014. Surrendering to the Guiding Hand. 8221; (Job 2:10) …. I feel like I have bumped into him again and again in recent years. Why does it feel like this book in the bible was written for me? Do I need any more proof that nothing ever goes away until it teaches us what we need to know? Take 415 (415,000! I want to be more like my brother Job, like the late Brennan Manning - like the "grateful recovering alcoholic in Ireland" - more fully consumed by Love rather than consumed by al...

Friday, January 06, 2012. Ron Paul and me at Flint's Tim Hortons. Hey, I'm trying to steer clear of politics these days! I have decided there are too many people I love who claim to be from one party or the other. It's hard to keep my thoughts pure when I discover just who they are supporting for President - and we're a long, long way from the finish line, folks! But I ran into Ron Paul this morning at the Tim Hortons at the corner of Ballenger and Flushing roads. Go figure. Not so much. (See? Paul's CIA...
