back

at the end of the day...

blessings are many!

three sure things

Life is hard.
God is merciful.
Heaven is sure.

mini-break

We can’t really experience a place until we do a couple things: intend to stay and then actually stay.

Our new house is feeling more like home.

Why?

Because you are here.

emmanuel

Every year Emmanuel means something different. Life peels back more layers and we’re left standing raw until they heal. But God coming down to this gritty, dusty, land of the dying makes every difference in our hope for living. 


He is with us. He is in us. He is here.

home again...

i ate both of them.
it was a bit bizarre, but with an enthusiastic guide, i was able to get into it in true east coast spirit.

in that 4 day trip i also ate scallops, mussels, shrimp, and salmon.
by the way, they didn't bite and they didn't try to escape from my plate...although i was half expecting them too!

hope

...some days you have to choose JOY
when you choose JOY, you begin to live JOYfully!
