This past week I basked in the sunrises and sunsets over the ocean of my "happy place" and praised the Creator of all creation. As I sit in reflection on the past week of jubilant celebration and reverent memorial of those gone on, I can only ask myself, "what shall we say of these things?". And a better question, what shall I do today? President Obama in his eulogy of Senator John McCain quoted Ernest Hemingway "Today is only one day in all the days that will ever be. But what will happen in all the other days that ever come will depend on what you do today". What shall I do today to best impact the days to come? How best can I touch one life for the better? How do I make this gift of being count for something greater than myself? These are the questions I ponder as I take a step into the deep being obedient to the voices in my head. I thank all of you who have reached out to me, who have FB'd, texted, stopped me and given me feedback. Thank you! I've listened, I've pondered and I've prayed. So....on this day, I open myself up to you and the who knows? I have no idea where this is going. I have emptied myself. Poured out my deepest thoughts. Stopped trying to silence the voices in my head. I can only hope that someone, somewhere will be encouraged by something said. Know that all that I speak and do, be it all to HIS glory.

Happy Sunday Saints!
