Doug White and I go back 77 years. We lived within a block of one another near 26th and Holman in Portland. He and his wife, Kathy, live in Eugene. This afternoon, Sunday, March 11, 2018, Doug sent me a remarkable TED presentation by Dewitt Jones. I have just listened to it. No, that’s too pedantic. I have been inspired and ministered to by it. Incredible, causing laughter, tears, remorse, resolve, but more, to understand that the energy of love is passion and life brings fear and scarcity but also possibility. The choice is ours.
I share it now…without anything less than an invitation to help the lens by which I live, by which you live. This speech impacts with favor and warmth and such deep value. Give yourself a gift…Doug has gifted me and through him Dewitt Jones has blessed my life. Indeed that is happening. See how the dandelion becomes a puff-ball and the world rejoices. And how a five year old boy has a camera with “juice in it.”
Grace, peace and love to each of us,
Mark.

About Mark H Miller
Diane and I live in Leander, Texas. This past June 17, 2015 I celebrated the 49th anniversary of my ordination. We returned to Texas after three years in Washington, during which I served as interim minister in Bellevue/Eastgate and Mercer Island. Am planning to begin a 5th novel that will have my protagonist, Tricia Gleason, serve a year in licensed ministry in Snoqualmie, Washington. The novel, "The Lemon Drop Didn't Melt," will find Tricia wrestling with ministry challenges. None of which more daunting than someone wanting her breathing to stop. All the published novels are available on Amazon and Amazon Kindle under Mark Henry Miller.
A primary goal in our return to Texas is to make sure grandchildren get lots of attention--here and in Chicago and Washington, D.C. Traveling is definitely an activity that will not slow down. With that, of course, fishing will happen. To that the t-shirt is apt, "I fish; therefore I am."
In addition to novels, the book of Blogs, "Voice Of My Heart," is also available on Amazon.
