Re The 40-acre Poplar Bush, March
Barb Alston’s 40-Acre Poplar Bush is a quiet but profound reflection of that quotation Laurence DeWolfe gives us in the same issue: “The essential thing … is that there should be a long obedience in the same direction …” (Nietzsche). Birth, life and death … deep joys and sorrows, sadness and happiness … all of this held safely in the loving hands of our gracious God. Thank you, Barb Alston. You have offered us a peaceful and affirming picture of faith journey. Well done!
