Friendships that Honor God
Write 31 Days Challenge - Day 30
What a beautiful reminder this quote is for me from Chapter 6, Friendship Breakups, in Lysa TerKeurst's "Uninvited". The whole message of the book is getting past rejection and to "live loved".
At times friendships and relationships can be easy and other times they can be hard. In the hard times, God has reminded me that the friendship . . .

Retreat
Write 31 Days Challenge - Day 28

Write 31 Days Challenge - Day 26

A "fun" game at youth group or other team-building events is the "trust fall". A person stands in front of another person or group. He/she closes their eyes and leans . . .

Direction
Write 31 Days Challenge - Day 24
I don't know about you, but sometimes driving can be a pain. It's nice to go places, like on vacation or to a friend's house for dinner; however, at other times, driving can be a headache. Especially if you live near a big city like I do.
Some mornings on my way to work, I ask the Lord which way I should go. A few times I feel like . . .
