Finding God and Marriage in Destin

August has come and gone. I hope the “Dog Days” treated you well.

This summer we went on a vacation with family. I had never been to Destin, FL, so it was a personal treat. It was also a time of talking to God in a special way. There is something about getting yourself in a location where you cannot grasp it all as you encounter God.

The ocean does that for me. You simply cannot completely understand or “solve” or get your hands around the ocean.

… or the mountains

… or the Grand Canyon

… or a problem you’ve got in your marriage.

It’s right where He wants us to be. In a place where we simply have to believe in – and trust in – Him.

Trust Him. He wants to work on your marriage issues. But He won’t force Himself. It’s your choice. Choose life. The abundant life He wants you to have - individually and in your marriage.
