CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
“I will hasten and not delay to obey your commands.” Psalm 119:60

“Obedience is faith put into practice.  Without action, James 2 reminds us that our faith is not real.  So without arguing, let’s quickly obey, even when we don’t fully understand why because we’ve seen God’s love demonstrated to us in Jesus, and we’ve seen the protection that His will has for us when we obey Him.”

Trust in God on any adventure!

MOLESKIN:
Safe travels to all those who are journeying.  Good luck to Blindside on his dissertation defense!
