Everything can change in an instant. That’s what just happened for Joanne. She had a stroke four days ago and her condition continues to worsen. Her family ask for our continued prayers.
Joanne is a wonderful wife and mother. An inspiration to me and for everyone who comes in contact with her. You can follow her writing here. Her motto: Living simply is not so much about the particulars of our lives as much as it is about the principles that govern them. Knowing what God has called you to do, and then doing it–that’s living simply.
I don’t know what Joanne’s mission is, but I cannot think that it is already complete. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers.
I have had this quote told to me twice this week.knowing what God has called you to do ,and then doing it.
