Today I am trying to get back in the swing of things after being gone for about two weeks! Our family had a wonderful time in California! It was a joy to watch my cousin get married and celabrate his new life that he is beginning with his wife Michelle. After that we got to go down the coast and along the way visit with some of our friends and family.

We had some interesting things happen while we were out there where we got to witness to some people. It is amazing how open people are when you start talking about the Lord and also about their background. When we were in San Francisco it was sad to see the homeless and there was one guy who was in the train station who was on drugs I am sure and was trying to make a penny by singing and playing the guitar. It crossed my mind that these people probably had a job and a family and lost it all and look where they are now.

No matter what we need to remember that other people are struggling and have nothing to hold on to. That is why they need the Lord and we are the ones to tell them about it. We will be doing a series coming up where we will be talking about the great commission and what the Lord commands us to do and what it truly means for our life. This is a challenge that I have taken to heart to do.
