You want to get out there and see what the world is all about. You love spontaneous travel.
You think it's good to get outside your comfort zone and change your perspective.
You have a good sense of irony. Sometimes you just have to laugh at life.
A quirky, unpredictable road trip is just your speed. Who knows where you'll end up?
But...I'm gonna be the driver!
Hi!
Bible in a Year:
I have swept away your offenses.
Alexa, Amazon’s voice-controlled device, has an interesting feature: it can erase everything you say. Whatever you’ve asked Alexa to do, whatever information you’ve asked Alexa to retrieve, one simple sentence (“Delete everything I said today”) sweeps it all clean, as if it never happened. It’s too bad that the rest of our life doesn’t have this capability. Every misspoken word, every disgraceful act, every moment we wish we could erase—we’d just speak the command, and the entire mess would disappear.
There’s good news, though. God does offer each of us a clean start. Only, He goes far deeper than merely deleting our mistakes or bad behavior. God provides redemption, a deep healing that transforms us and makes us new. “Return to me,” He says, “I have redeemed you” (Isaiah 44:22). Even though Israel rebelled and disobeyed, God reached out to them with lavish mercy. He “swept away [their] offenses like a cloud, [their] sins like the morning mist” (v. 22). He gathered all their shame and failures and washed them away with His wide, sweeping grace.
God will do the same with our sin and blunders. There’s no mistake He can’t mend, no wound He can’t heal. God’s mercy heals and redeems the most painful places in our soul—even the ones we’ve hidden for so very long. His mercy sweeps away all our guilt, washes away every regret.
Where are you most aware of your failures? How does the image of God sweeping away all your mistakes give you hope?
So many regrets, so many things I’d do differently. God, You tell me that You can forgive and heal me. Thank You for Your mercy and grace.
“Your Summer Vacation Should Be in Italy”
Yes. it should.
Shouldn’t be cynical in the cafe, but what’s a summer?
What’s a vacation?
Beginning to wonder if I’ll have either ever again.
You are laid back and always ready to go with the flow. Plans change, so why even make them?
You are a ton of fun, and you love to bond with others. You make instant friends with people.
You are very liable and charming. People simply enjoy being around you.
A casual beach vacation is perfect for you. You're always down for a little more rest and relaxation.
Your summer vacation should be a trip to Toadsuck, Arkansas.
Ahhhhhhh.....
My adopted home town.

Nope, somewhere by myself.
This bogus quiz is so wrong
I want to be in the mountains in the west, not the beach.
I like your plan.
Greetings to all at the Canteen!
To all our military men and women, past and present,
Your Summer Vacation Should Be a Road Trip

Camping. At one time that was right but not now.
My idea summertime vacation is the road trip.
Once you have seen one beach, you’ve pretty much seen them all.
Water and sand.
But can you say you have truly lived if you haven’t seen Mount Waffle at Toadsuck? Waffles piled up to the wispy white clouds floating through the beautiful blue sky. It’s like whipped cream on Mount Waffle.
Oh, how I pine for the pines surrounding Toadsuck.
Late at night, you can hear the lilting melodies of the Red-Footed Wrens in those pines.
It’s a little slice of heaven alamode.
You can’t go anywhere that there are not sick people. Stay at home, stay safe. Stay away form people with the virus also.
BAD day for problems at work today. I will post the ping, but then back to work.
Toadsuck, Arkansas.
The town motto is,
“YEAH, I GUESS IT COULD BE BETTER”
