2012 In Pictures

When reflecting back on the past year, I couldn’t remember all the highlights until I was going through the pictures on my computer (trying to get organized!).  Memories and moments came back to warm my heart.  2012 was a good year!  As I work to clean up my pictures, I’m posting them to cherish and resolve next year to capture more moments.

Sometimes We Score, Sometimes We Block

Our family is in the midst of little league soccer season. My youngest son is playing and his enthusiasm is contagious. He is pretty good at the sport, but what makes it so great is that he loves it! He counts the days until the next game or practice. He loves his coach and teammates. He has moved up an age level this year and the players are working more like team, passing to each other and watching out for each other during play.

We dream about it and work to make that happen. But in reality, relationships are a challenge. The bridging of values, lifestyles, interests and sacrificing for another are simply hard things to do!

The gift of free will allows us to choose to say Yes or No to Him.  Romans 12:18 says, “If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.” Take notice of the first two words: “If possible …” This implies that some
