Unity

"You all are always together." Families - individuals uniting as one.
"I do." Marriages - individuals uniting as one.

The individual is still there - it makes the union what it is.

Wishing....

I guess my feet know where they want me to go
Walking on a country road

My girls

Talking to my girls.

"All I need is an orphan and a widow!"

"I remember them, but I don't know them now." Jonas Racey Miller about his friends at First Church.

Today brought ....
preaching in a small country church
leading hymns accapella
lunch with a beautiful little girl with a beautiful smile (who also was wearing BIG GIRL PANTS and had to show them to EVERYONE much to her grandmother's chagrin!)
watching rainbow trout in the spring with Jonas
playing drums on the benches with Zeb
having Katie Hannah pose with us for a family picture

oh - and great food!

Natural Bridge seafood buffet

"These are NOT eatin' britches!" - Pastor Dava of her jeans after eating piles and piles of crab legs.

Cracked pots

"I needed this."
"I wasn't going to come today, but I'm glad I did."
"Some messages push people out to the corners of the sanctuary. This one pulled them in."
"God is with you."
"I knew it was going to be good when you stood up with so much confidence."

Evidently, God does use "cracked pots."
