The   Fourth   Life

Living   Intentionally

A Bit of a Pause.

​Hello Friends,
I had not planned to miss three whole days of writing, but unfortunately, a sore shoulder that I have been dealing with for years decided on Tuesday to bloom into full-grown rotator cuff rip, tear, and, well, you can guess.  I did get to experience an MRI, and take even more pills in addition to the many I have already been privileged to take over the last week or so.  I honestly did not think I would have all these various maladies to deal with, but I guess I have moved fully into not-so-good health at least for a while.
This morning I am typing one finger at a time, but I wanted to connect with you all. Over the coming weeks I will have all sorts of procedures and operations, so frankly that means my focus will be there, along with trying to find a comfortable sleeping position.
I say all that to give you the unfortunate news that I will have to push the pause button on my time with you all.  I’ve still lots of stories to share – It’s just that the idea of putting it down on paper has become a literal pain.
So, for now I will have to think of you fondly and hope for a speedy healing so I can get back to this thing that I love.  Thanks for your patience and your prayers, and know that all will be well in the end.  Live intentionally, and treat other as kind when you can, and just when you must.
See you soon….. Peace.

    After 43 years of ministry, Randy Cross lived his "fourth life" and shared about retirement, living boldly and intentionally in our world. To be sure, there was some North Dakota thrown in.

    His son, Aaron, now operates this site in honor of his father.
