The last three weeks have been crazy.  I am amazed by the grace of God and his provision.  Over the next couple posts I will explain little chapters of His provision and faithfulness.  To start, I’ll clue you in on the calendar of events.

January 19-23: Scout trip for Hawaii including an overnight flight Jan 22/23.

January 23: meetings all morning after getting off the plane, nap in the afternoon then great dinner out with the family (I missed them so much).

Grace,
Brian
