Our lives are a journey that we walk together not in order to become "good christian women," but rather to draw near to God so that we can reflect His light to those around us. Our stories, our paths, our dreams and our message are all unique. But we hold hands and walk boldly, fearlessly......onward...creating joy, hope, faith and peace in our wake.

Playing Favorites

Today I played.  I floated in a river with my favorite people.  I realized at some point how comforting I find it to be with them.  Peace inducing.  Laughter provoking.  It was a great day in rafts going six miles down a river.  We almost didn't do it.  I'm so glad that we did.  Aren't so many things in life like that?  I can stay with the familiar.  I can do what is easy or what I'm used to.  Or, I can risk.  I can do something new and different.  Today was that way.
And frankly, we weren't very good at it.    We struggled.  Spun.  Didn't pay attention.  WE had troubles.  But, we laughed.  We made memories.  For a little over a hundred dollars, nine people paddled and floated their way down a beautiful river.  Laughing and falling and getting terrified.  Together.  It was wonderful.
Now I think...how else can I play along the way with my favorites.
blessings.
