I want to thank you for you warm and well spoken message; honestly I was torn apart that day and did hear all the words. Your message is very strong and powerful and yes my son today is free from all his pain and suffering. Living a lifetime full of dreams…God Bless…My tears of sorrow and now tears of joy…

[...] also appreciated Les Ferguson’s Ruminations on Lost. Was the LOST finale everything I hoped it would be? [...]

Les -

Tom & I were big LOST followers and watched last night, as well. Tom lost the younger of his two daughters in 2002, so the ending meant a lot to the both of us. It felt RIGHT, leaving all of the mysteries and insignificant things of life behind.

Thanks for your impressions, Les – and for your comment, John.

It was an intriguing view of people’s lives while it lasted and the ending is the one we all face. Farewell, LOST, but welcome all the characters into a happier place.

Well done!

Dee

Thanks for your thoughts Les. I think LOST resonated because of the characters, as you said. But it was surrounded by adventure and mystery. It had lots of humor…but it really was the people who were interesting. I was sad, too, to see it end. And i cried too…at the vision of meeting together on the other side.

LOST is just a story. But it contains so many elements of THE STORY… that it is a powerful parable at the same time.

And for the record, John Robert was a LOST fan as well. He and some of his friends would come over and watch it at the house together. That was fun.

love ya!

Comment on No Perfect People Allowed/ Come As You Are: Practically Speaking by Trey Morgan

The best thing I can do is confess the fact that I’m not perfect, and yet the worst thing I can do is use that for an excuse to live below what God wants for my life.

Sadly, I’ve met too many people in this world that feel like the need to straighten up their life before coming to Jesus, yet they need to realize he wants us to come with our life screwed up.

Good thoughts Les

Blessings

Oh, Les – I grieve for you all. With you all. How long can this go on?

My elderly mom, who is 88 1/2, is beginning to have fairly severe short term memory loss and I am having a hard time with THAT, so have no idea how I could deal with something such as you are undergoing. She is still able to live at home (in Abilene) alone and still drives, even, but I think the time will be soon when we (the kids) will have to deal with it – her – and I do not think she will be cooperative at all, unfortunately, although she’s always been a very sweet, loving person.

She has a strong will, and I think her survival instincts are going to kick in against us, and I dread even thinking of us. Already, when we’ve tried to approach her with some of these things, she bristles up and balks – is very disinclined to listen to us at all, taking offense.

In your situation, it must even be worse and I really am so sorry for all of this pain in your lives.

I will continue to pray with you and for you. But, I am glad you shared.

Dee

You guys are in our prayers. I am so sorry that you have to experience this with Cole. I can’t even imagine seeing my son going through what he is going through. Miss you guys.

Dear Les,
Every time I read one of your posts I can’t help but tear up in pain for you. I know you write them to share with us so we can pray specifically and I do pray for you in your struggles and with all that your family has endured and
continues to go through. I do know God has given you extra measures of grace, love and humor to be able to keep on.
Every time I see any kind of post from you on Facebook I lift up you and your family in prayer and will continue to do so…even your brief comments that have nothing to do with Cole. They are just brief reminders to me that you are there and need prayer.
God bless!
Love in Christ,
Linda
