    Greetings!<\/h3>\n

    While we were waiting in the checkout line last week, the customer ahead of me asked, \u201cHow are you doing?\u201d It wasn\u2019t the \u201cHow ya doin\u2019?\u201d I\u2019m accustomed to. It was more like \u201cHow are YOU doing? Are you okay in all of this?\u201d Maybe the question was prompted by the magenta ink smear on my nose. (I was there to buy printer ink.) But I could tell the stranger was really concerned.<\/p>\n

    Times like these bring out the best and worst in people. My dear sister Andrea mentioned in our last in-person home group meeting that she is not always \u201cthe best version\u201d of herself. For days after that sweet time of fellowship I pondered her words.<\/p>\n

    Sometimes we don\u2019t have the right words to answer the question, \u201cHow are you?\u201d Hence the word wheel above. For more thoughts on this all-important question, read The Greatest Gospel Question of This Moment: \u201cHow Are You Doing?\u201d<\/a> (Christianity Today).<\/p>\n

    In case you\u2019re wondering, I\u2019m feeling thankful and hopeful.<\/p>\n
