Rambling Through Everyday Life Podcast

This week’s conversation is a little more on the spiritual side, although y’all know us well enough to know there is some ridiculous, too.  We loved our time with the ladies at Malesus Baptist Church last month and wanted to share some of that conversation with you.  We discuss what it means to grow in Christ and how to know if you are entering a growing season.  There is discomfort in growth, and there is discomfort in staying the same.  We will never change if we aren’t challenged!  We talk about abiding, pruning, watering, and other favorite takeaways from...

Psalm 31 (The Message version) 

I run to you, God; I run for dear life.
    Don’t let me down!
    Take me seriously this time!
Get down on my level and listen,
    and please—no procrastination!
Your granite cave a hiding place,
    your high cliff nest a place of safety.

You’re my cave to hide in,
    my cliff to climb.
Be my safe leader,
    be my true mountain guide.
Free me from hidden traps;
    I want to hide in you.
I’ve put my life in your hands.
    You won’t drop me,
    you’ll never let me down.
