What a blessing

     Just recently I had the privilege to visit my in-laws. Yes, I said "privilege." Not many people can say that about their in-laws....BUT I CAN!!! I was visiting with them thinking that I would just be enjoying time with them and my new family additions, but God had other plans. Yes, we enjoyed time together. We played games, we cooked out (yes, even in December), we went shopping....well, they went shopping while I sat and watched people, but that's another day another blog. Anyway, we had a lot of great times hanging out with a lot of great people. As I was there with my in-laws and wife just getting away from the daily grind of life, God spoke to me often. He shared with me a few things that I needed to be reminded of (thank you David, Lynn, Jessi, Sundi, Mark, and Lisa very much!) and I am going to remember those moments. 
     In a time where I thought I was just going to get away and "take it easy," God took that time to say, "Hey, remember me?" I took time to read, time to have fun, time to study and it felt good. Now, for the tough part....to carry that out now into my everyday life. God shared with me a number of things through my family and friends but also in those still quiet moments. I may never share those moments with people but God knows what is going on and He wants me to answer, "Yes, I remember you and want to get closer to you."
     Take care and God bless. May He be there beside you today and forever.
