As we start getting back into fall and a routine (as we talked about last week at the podcast), I wanted to share a bit of encouragement for all of us today. Who doesn't like to be encouraged? Our time today is just a reminder that no one out there has it all together. We are a continual work in progress in the Lord's hand.

Every business seemed to give away free calendars, and most meals seemed to be eaten at home. My grandmother always had a list going on what task she was going to get to ... continue reading...
