2 Interesting Links
 1. It’s been devastating to watch the horrors unfold in Israel/Palestine over the last two weeks. I thought THIS lengthy and personal testimony was very worth reading and meditating on.

2. The Radical Act of Letting Things Hurt contains a hefty dose of wisdom as well. Find it HERE.
