Counting to 2000
I reached 2000 this week. So next week I will be saying – Counting to 3000.
Someone handed me a paper the other day that said:
Things to Do Today
- Ask God to help you prioritize your life.
- Ask Him for guidance and courage.
- Make God’s priorities your priorities.
- If you do, you will receive God’s abundance and His peace.
As we head toward Christmas – this second week of Advent – may you be filled with God’s presence and peace.
