We settle for false securities, for a cheap refuge in the busyness and noise of life. We cling to temporary attachments and passing pleasures. But if we would ‘send it all across the river,’ and find ourselves alone, then we can wait.
And when we wait, we will find our salvation in God alone.
Take a moment. Be still. Wait upon the Lord.

Today
Today is the first day of the rest of your life. The old has passed and the new is here. It is a brand new day, and the best is yet to come.
Every morning and every moment, offers new mercy, full forgiveness and the opportunity to experience more of God than you understood yesterday. His love is inexhaustible and has no limit. His plans for you are greater than you can imagine and His presence is available every minute of every day! -
Seen
I do still wonder if the most known in eternity will have been the least known on earth. We will find out one day. Until then, keep serving and know that God loves you and sees you. Be faithful. The example for us all is our Servant King!

You never stop worrying about your kids. How could you? They might be older but they’re still running around unsupervised!

Toolbox Memories
My Grampa, my dad’s father, built this for me when I was a young boy, about 8 or 9 years old.
The toolbox came with a saw (original still in the box), a hammer, screw drivers, pliers and a number of small glass jars containing various sizes of nails. I still have some of those glass jars too! The box is very well constructed and has a lock which was quite magical as a young kid. Something I could lock up and keep secrets in. Sadly, the key has gone missing.
My earliest fond memory of using the tools was in Sudbury on a sunny Saturday afternoon out in the garage cutting up various bits of scrap wood and making my version of a toy boat. Something like this only less fancy. I thought it was a masterpiece! After all I did it all by myself!
Fancy Toy Wood Boat Over the years this toolbox has held lots of childhood treasures and good memories.
When we had Eric and Scott my dad decided to keep the tradition going and build our boys similar toolboxes.
