          "Please try to look cute and happy", she said. "We need to take pictures to remember how much fun this was."

First Wonder of the World

Sometimes I read a certain Bible verse for years and never really feel all that much connection to it... and then one day I get an "aha" moment when the verse becomes tangible. I think this is probably because we're such visually and emotionally wired beings that we need God to make His Truth real to us in His timing. I had one of those "aha" moments yesterday and these verses became beautifully animated.     For you created my inmost being ;      you knit me together in my mother’s womb .     I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;      your works are wonderful,      I know that full well.     My frame was not hidden from you      when I was made in the secret place,      when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.

Transition. Its my word of the week. I sit here in our tiny dark cool apartment this morning feeling both blessed and distressed. I am blessed by God’s never ending provision for those of us who call him Dad. But what distresses me is the fact that because of His awesome provision, we only have less than a month left in this tiny dark cool apartment. All too soon we will be trading this for a much bigger and more open house .   I suppose that should sound far more appealing… I mean,who wouldn't want to go from 750 square feet to 1300+ square feet, right?  Vince and I have gotten quite attached to our “dark hole” as we have affectionately named it. Not dark in a bad way, just dark in a cozy delicious way. And mostly dark because I prefer living with the blinds closed 90% of the time.                                ...
