Thoughts from my friend, today. Thanks, Bonnie ~
I went to church four times last week, but I never stepped into a church. How did I do that?
No, it’s not one of those logic riddles where the answer is some obscure at first, and then ever so obvious, detail that just leaves you feeling obtuse.
I grew up in a family with a strong faith and a particular religion, it was just who we were. I embraced this all through my teens and young adult years, but then there came a time when I began to question it all.

How beautiful! We, as an elderly couple, have also learned that you don’t have to be inside the walls of a church to find the heart of God. He and His beautiful creations are available for all to enjoy. We are surrounded by blessings, if we just take the time out of our busy lives to be still, listen to His voice, and look at the beauty He has provided for us. Thanks for these thoughts today.
Well said, my friend ♥
