“For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, but later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it”
Hebrews 12:11
O to grace how great a debtor
Daily I’m constrained to be
Let thy goodness like a fetter,
Bind my wandering heart to Thee.
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it,
Prone to leave the God I love;
Here’s my heart, O take and seal it,
Seal it for thy courts above.
Robert Robinson

I so love to see our flag as it waves and with the beautiful sunset as a backdrop…it made for a lovely picture. I’ve become so inspired with all the pictures of churches you’ve posted I’ve started taking my own, which I will one day publish into my own coffee table book. Happy Sunday!!
Thank you, Joann! Love you, sweet friend!
