GUT Happy

June 22, 2012

Altering Plans

May 14, 2012

“…every plan, priority and goal should be held against the backdrop of eternity because it is from that backdrop  (life’s backdrop) that our priorities are validated, our calling confirmed and our time best invested.” source We have a running joke in my family, if you ask the “Cotters” what their plans are for the day, [...]

March 15, 2012
