Beach Bound

















Today, my husband and I will travel to the Outer Banks. We will be driving two separate cars, because he will return on Monday and I will stay through the end of next week. We were extended an offer by a close friend to share their vacation. They rent a "huge" home, ocean front with many amenities. GOD has truly blessed us.When my husband returns, our son will leave for lake Gaston with other close family friends.

Please pray for safe travel and safe adventures for each of us. Each of us are fortunate to share our adventures with close friends. We are thankful for the opportunities God has given us. These vacations for each of us are beyond what we could do on our own and they are certainly "extravagant."

GOD knows our needs down to the smallest detail. He cares deeply for us and wants the best. Sometimes we take these abundant gifts for granted. I praise HIM for all the opportunities He has laid at our feet.

"I'm ready, GOD, so ready, ready from head to toe. Ready to sing, ready to raise a GOD song: Wake soul! Wake,lute! Wake up, you sleepyhead sun!" Psalm 108:12 The Message

I am ready for my adventure!

Andrea

  1. Hey sis,
    Congrats on getting away! That's fantastic! I will pray for your travels and trip. I'd love to get together when you get back. Also, would you please pray for me and the writers conference? I am dealing with some emotional garbage about going. I know God wants me to go and I look forward to getting away, but it will be a major undertaking for me (and my hubby alone w/kids for 3 days). Get some sun and fun for me. Love ya, Laurie

  7. You deserve every minute of this vacation. Your heavenly Father knows, as you said. He is the God of the surprises and He is the God of the more than what we ask for or imagine!

    I am rejoicing with you, dear Andrea.

  15. When we lived in NC, we spent every summer at Myrtle Beach. Living smack dab in the middle of the country, I so miss the ocean. Enjoy!
