The other day this verse came across one of the feeds that I do read every day. On that same day, I had conversations with a few different people in different places, at different times,… Sunday Series – How To Never Lack For Provisions

Perhaps, as we walk quickly away from another season that our sons and daughters played,
we should pause for perspective, all the focus on them, and for our enjoyment, the prices they paid.
We all entered these overlapping eras the same way, from the back door, before dawn on a late November morn,
but did you get through the months that followed unmarked by the passion? Love of the game reborn.
