I know I have been away from blogging for awhile. I might have lost my 5 people that actually read this ;-) So much has happened, its hard to know how to catch things up. I am in Thailand right now, awaiting my new visa (That's a whole story in itself). Last week, I went whitewater rafting with a friend. And this picture makes me laugh because of the expression on my face. I sorta have this 'pained, grit my teeth and bear it' look. And it pretty much sums up my view on life recently. Oh its gonna hurt...its gonna hurt...please don't let it hurt too bad. But I was reminded...that as we face the different challenges in life...the Lord leaves little evidences of His grace that illumines the pathway of the unknown. And for today, that's enough.
