Through their eyes
They will all arrive this week…swarm our church campus…and wrap ribbons of Hope around our hearts. Global workers. Some call them missionaries, some call them non-profit workers, some call them “ministry” organizers…all are tuned to the heart of God for the nations (either here in the US or around the
He is here
Do you ever feel like drawing in the sand? Setting up stones for remembrance? I feel like that today. Nothing amazing has happened, no significant life-change, no raise, or extra baby coming…but I feel as if I just need to draw in the sand. Set up stones. To remember. To

Looking forward to 2012
