What Would You Ask of Your Genie?
These days I do a lot of reminiscing. I’m not looking in a rear-view mirror to pine away at the memories of the past. I go back in time to cherish the sweetest times when God proved His faithfulness time and again. While our precious family from Canada has been here, we did some of…
The First Day of Spring
That was yesterday, March 20th……and Spring has sprung! How sweet it is! As spring begins, the length of our days increase dramatically in most regions.
