DON'T RUN AWAY OR BE FEARFUL OR SAY NO TO GOD!

  From the dock at Bluewater, Hilton Head Island, SC Hello! Last post I was talking about running away. We shouldn't run away from God but to God! I think that there is a song about running away from God. Here it is so listen to the words. I think that we have all been there at some point in time. Fugitive from God I did sort of run away and go to the beach, alone. You say, how could you do that? Well, we had an extra week paid for and hated to let it go to waste. My husband had to work.

I believe that I didn't even finish the blog through the Choctaw Mission Trip. I always have great intentions but then we get so busy and exhausted that  I don't get take the time to finish. Then I get home and I choose to make a slideshow, video and picture DVD and then burn 40 or so DVD's for each team member (2 for each family because I couldn't fit it all on one) and write thank you notes and figure out our financial records for the week and send those to our ministry that registers and insures us.
