As we prepare for a family vacation. This time it is a little different. Since our last trip to the beach as a family, we have added a grandson, Drew and Ashley's second, and Stacy's husband Kyle. The anticipation for a trip all boils down to arriving at your destination. While that is true, I want to slow down and take in the joy in the journey to get there. The laughs, memories, and sometimes best sermon illustrations actually come from the journey itself. I am going to be looking for those kind of things on this trip, this adventure! As a Christian, I pray you are finding joy in the journey of serving the Lord. God gives us something to celebrate, and that is a peace that the world cannot produce.
This summer slow down a step or two and take a look around.
