Heavenly Father, my brothers, my sisters and I bring our tiredness and our striving to You. Meet us with rest; teach us Your gentle way. Replace our heavy load with Your light yoke, steady our heart, and give him strength for what matters. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

“Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

Marci and I watched 'The Woman in Cabin 10' on Netflix last night, and my main observation is that the writer is wildly optimistic about how long people can stay alive when they go for a swim in Arctic waters.

The trivialization of women exists as an ongoing, malevolent belittling: whatever is consistently and without opposition declared to be irrelevant – like so much that women experience– loses its language; perhaps it may echo for a while within a person, but it creates no response.

When your husband comes back from the storage unit with “a bunch of our winter things”, including an overcoat you were sure you had donated last spring, and now you have to explain why you went and bought a new overcoat “because you didn’t have one”. 🙄

One thing I’ve been trying to do (and wish the media would also do) is to stop using the euro-centric term “Middle East”.
Other terms like “Arab” or “Islamic” world also inaccurately reflect cultural diversity in the area, and deny the existence of Arabs and Muslims in other parts of the world /1
