Come Follow Me: Week of Feb 18 - Feb 24

How is your "light?"

Let's be honest. Sometimes our flame is brighter than at other times. The ebbs and flows of life happen to all of us.

This week, my family is the sickest we have ever been. All of us. At the same time.  So our light is barely flickering over here. But we have wonderful friends who are making sure we are ok and providing food. I love that we can use our strength to help others when they need it the most. And our turn to help will come around.

So, I'm sorry that this week's plans are late. I'm just hoping to be able to get next week's done!
