Hi! With the events still unfolding in my neighboring town of Ferguson and my commitment to continue to pray for the people involved, I will be taking a week away from the blog to rest, seek God, join with others in prayer, and regroup.<\/p>\n

In my absence, I’m leaving some sites I visit frequently. (Yes, I was a school teacher; these are sub plans.) The links are various daily devotionals from different denominations and perspectives. I have found gems on each site.<\/p>\n

I don’t endorse everything on these sites, including the ads. Nor do I necessarily agree with everything I read in each entry. However, I believe that you, my readers, have discernment, Bible understanding, and wisdom sufficient to \u201chave as much sense as an old cow\u2014eat the hay and spit out the stubble.\u201d<\/p>\n

As it stands now, I plan to return to the blog in a week on Monday, August 25.<\/p>\n
