R.A.D.I.C.A.L. Thoughts for R.A.D.I.C.A.L. Women

My mom died last night. How it all happened was a testimony to God's goodness. She left an absolutely incredible legacy of faith and fun and joy. She prayed that I would be short and have curly hair. I am the only one in my family is short and has curly hair. My brothers are both over six feet. She lived a life of amazing trust that good things are in store for all of us because God loves us so much. When I told my Dad this morning that she hadn't made it through the night, he said, "Bless her heart. She was a miracle in my life." We are all celebrating what she taught all of us about living full out and with boldness and secure that all the big stuff in life was already decided and that our job was just to live every minute as passionately as possible.

Love to you all on this site. God is good. He has good things planned for you. My mom cried tears many times, but I have never known anyone who lived with full expectation that with God everything would turn out just right and her life was a testimony to that knowledge.

I don't know for sure when I can be back on this site. The funeral will probably be Friday. Live your life today with complete joy and trust and faith that your life is unfolding just as it should. And my mom would say, "and remember, I love you from the top of your head to the bottom of your toes."

Love, Suzy
