It is time to drag out my own picture book that I wrote in the summer of 2011 and do something with it. I remember the day I wrote that book. It started with the words and pictures . . . → Read More: Get Down To It! Surrendering to being God’s vessel is like going white water rafting without a paddle – you don’t get to steer – you just hang on!
