  • Chasing Rainbows

     "Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?’ Your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given… Read More

    And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work. 2 Corinthians 9:8  When Ruby and I were walking in the park the other day, I spotted this determined little flower blooming in the middle of a patch of dirt and rocks.

Bridal veils are beautiful. We've celebrated the forgiveness of Good Friday and the joy of Resurrection Sunday.  But, as I read the Scripture, there’s an event that’s often passed over: the tearing of the bridal veil. At that moment the curtain of… Read More
