Time to get outside!!!

Today I was thinking and remembering three speakers that I have heard the past few mounts. They will seem to have conveniently been on the same flight all going to different destinations. All three told the same story. They were on a plane and heard a little girl say, “Mommy, Mommy turn off the light I can see to much!”



This must have been something that God wanted me hear. Since these three people do not know each other and probably were not traveling… Continue

I road my bike across the country this summer. That still sounds weird.



Before I left I knew I wanted to spend the summer trusting God. This happened.
