During this time of uncertainty, it reminded me of these powerful words from Matthew 6:26.  While I understand that everybody may not share my faith, and that finding peace in all of this is easier said than done, I still hope it provides encouragement.  If you believe that prayer makes a difference, will you join me and continue to pray for our leaders, our country and world, our communities, and our loved ones? Pray for those who are vulnerable, worried, and struggling ... that they may find health, peace, comfort, and be encouraged. Secondly, I had a chance t…

First of all, I hope you, your loved ones, and your team members are safe during these unprecedented times. I picked up our son at the airport Friday night after his university closed in-person classes. On the way home, we talked about the history that we are all witnessing. While we can and should do our part, we cannot give in to fear of the what-ifs.  Isaiah 41:10 tells us to "Fear Not, for I AM with you." While everything that is happening is hard to understand, I believe we can rest in this promise. Whether we share the same beliefs or not, we CAN support and care for each other.
