onward we travel...

we are so critical and judgemental of people too often, too fast; even those we love. why is it this is the route more often taken rather than love - unconditional love? with those we have already traveled so far with this attidute hinders us from running the race together in unity. for us we find it to be a viscious circle. we feel judged, thus we judge or we feel loved, thus we love.

fill us with grace. fill us with love. fill us with courage to remove the spec from our own eyes to love those around us and not greet them with scorn.

this weekend we had the priviledge of gathering with a group of people that we love and admire. we are all different yet we came from a similar place, our University. a girls Bible Study that started in our dorm grew and has lasted for five years. everyone has moved on: graduate school, marriage, medical school, children, ministry, seminary, etc but there is a bond the Lord developed to be kept by the 'bond of the unity of peace'.

this is of three men who have been added to our numbers: Brandon, J, Ben.


many of us girls at J and I's wedding.
