I hope you have a refreshing break, and look forward to your return:)<BR/>Oh yeah, and I noticed it's not up anymore, but I wanted you to know I was really blessed by your post about allowing God to protect our children. Sometimes keeping them shielded from all of the evils of this world can feel like such an overwhelming task, and that verse you shared from Psalms just really encouraged me that I need to have more trust in God's protection over them. <BR/>God bless, and have a fun summer:)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32444916.post-5328103342725547802008-07-09T17:34:00.000-05:002008-07-09T17:34:00.000-05:00Five very important people will be very glad you a...Five very important people will be very glad you are taking this (much needed, it sounds like!) break from blogging.
