I’m usually pretty capable of cranking out 1,000 words at any given moment. My husband will verify this, especially at bedtime when he’s drifting off. Whether those slurries of words are of interest to people outside of marriage vows (and sometimes even in them) is another story. I would like to start a new feature here on TheGoodNewsFamily to make it easier for me to share my heart for our global launch to serve at the Home of Life in Costa Rica. A picture is said to be worth that much in verbiage, sometimes even more. Please enjoy a few of my favorites and the (brief) reasons why.
Our home for 5 weeks this summer. There is a beauty to doing life in a small house when you are surrounded by glorious weather (I even love the rain) and warm people. Itty bitty living space, phenomenal cosmic life.
Every morning of our stay, the skyline above was the breathtaking view from the rocking chairs on our front porch. Cue the symphony of birdsong, crickets, and gecko chirps, pour the coffee, and breathe in the presence of the Lord. Blessings!
The Good News Family 
it’s a beautiful place with wonderful people in a simple setting, free from most complications and worries of the rat race that we’re accustomed to….in short, this place is……..Pura Vida!
Pura Vida indeed, Ken. And your team this summer made it even better.
Gorgeous! Oh, how I miss it there! And the patter of the rain on the ground at 2 pm every day like clock work. Pura Vida!
One of my favorite things, too, along with the rolling rumbles of thunder and all the covered porches to enjoy it from.

You are so gifted with words! AND, you are extremely inspirational. I could sit down and read a book by you so easily. So, please write one!!

Cathie, you are so sweet. I would love to write a book if God would give me one to write. Right now, He’s warming me up on blogs. So glad you are enjoying them. 🙂
What a beautiful post and a glorious view! Love you so much!!!
Love you, too, Sister! God has given us both some great views lately. 🙂
