Back in the saddle

Back from a great time with Connie in Florida. Awesome to hold a handful of sand and remember that "more than the grains of sand" are God's thoughts toward me. Unbelievable. His creation is amazing and hidden unless time is taken to look at it. A simple seashell shows creative love. It reminded me of His intentional attention toward me.

"We have become believers rather than experiencers. To know God in the Scriptures always went beyond information to intimacy. We may find ourselves uncomfortable with this reality, but the faith of the Scriptures is an invisible reality. We become connected to the God of eternity. Who you are at the core is spirit. God is spirit. To walk with god is to journey in the spiritual realm." (Erwin McManus)
