I woke up this morning in the bottom bunk of a set of bunk beds. Wednesday morning I woke up in a sleeping bag on the hard wood floor. It is likely in the next week or so I may be in a tent in the backyard or on the couch holding a crying infant. Such is my lot in life as the father of three girls.

We all go through different stages of life. Some are just strating out in elementary, middle or high school working on academic and social skills to prepare you for the basic needs of life. Or you may be in college, honing your craft so you can find your niche. Maybe you are recently married and you are discovering what sharing life is really all about. Maybe you are where I am with the addition of kids and all the craziness that entails. Or maybe your kids are gone and you are learning to cope with life as a pair again.

Wherever you happen to be, all of your needs from friends, family and curch are going to be different. But we all need two things: Jesus and each other. So talk to Jesus and talk to people today. Don’t shut yourself off from either. They will always make your day a little bit better.

On the Journey with You,
Scott
