TIME - Mine or yours?

What does her future hold?

Playtime on Sunday afternoon.

This little boy is a year older now, not strong enough to make the right choices.

Time is running out for our world. Time is running out for the children of the world. It is not my time or your time - it's God's time. Let's give it!

DEEP WATERS - Count me in

Late this afternoon we went to Newport at the Little Corona del Mar beach. It's a small place with tide pools, lots of great spots to sit, perfect to watch the frothy waves unfurl and crash endlessly on the rocks. Many times, as it was the case today, you will see scuba divers, professional photographers, young families with a pooch or two. It is a picturesque beach.
If it wasn't for the occasional jet, you might think yourself to be somewhere away from crowded sunny California. When you first get in the water, it seems that there are too many pebbles, but take a few steps and, there, you're in the sand.


When we finished playing, I went and sat alone on a rock as the tide was coming in. After a while I could not see the pebbles in the water ahead of me. The powerful rolling waves covered everything.


You need to get in deep enough, most of the time the edge is uncomfortable. Eventually you'll want to get out.

You need to get in deep enough for the "pebbles" to disappear. In shallow water, they stick out. Not very inviting.

You need to get in deep enough to let the powerful waves carry you. As long as you are in control, it's hard work and it will wear you out.
