I lived in Broken Arrow, OK, during my Bible school years. From my parent’s driveway to my apartment parking lot it was exactly 1,000 miles. And like any normal 20-year-old Bible school student, I pulled an all-nighter one night to drive home for Thanksgiving. I was doing great until about 2:00 in the morning. And like any normal 20-year-old Bible school student, I didn’t have money for a hotel room. So, I had to press on. First I tried caffeine….but that only made me have to use the bathroom. So….I had a brilliant idea. I thought I’d feed tired. I found that if I munched on various things (chips, carrots, nuts, chocolate) that it really helped stay awake. The sugar gave me a rush and the protein kept me going. I stayed awake all night and drove straight through, but I paid for it for a few days. The Bible has a lot to say about rest….

I hope you all got to dive a little deeper yourselves. The word for the week for me was definitely Come to Me! Everywhere I turned, that scripture was in front of me. It’s what I ended my last post on…it popped up in conversations I had. I was able to catch a dear friend ministering via Livestream this week, and what was she teaching on? Come to Me, and…
Dive Deep!
I really love to be by the water, a fountain, a creek, a river…oceans are my absolute favorite. I could sit at the ocean all day every day just listening to those waves crashing on the shore and never get bored. There is something so peaceful and so refreshing about listening to water. There is something refreshing about drinking a cold glass of water on a hot day or diving into the ocean when it’s scorching outside. It cools you off. It fills you up. It re-energizes you…..
