Good Morning,
It was a lovely morning on the Parkway. We continue to add miles, slowly for sure, but we are making progress. A busy Mother's Day Weekend ahead. We have Pete's girls this weekend which will be fun. Mark and Winja announced the new baby is girl. We are thrilled to welcome number 9 to the brood. The weekend is coming the weather should be wonderful so get out and enjoy! I hope you engage with Ashland this weekend we have great things planned.

Blessings, Doug

Today's Scripture

Colossians 4:5-6 (New International Version)

Be wise in the way you act toward outsiders; make the most of every opportunity. Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone.

Today's Thought

Paul is advising the church and followers of Jesus how to engage outsiders. We are not to be judgmental and accusatory, but to act with grace toward them. We should have conversations that are full of grace and seasoned with salt. We are to win people to Christ, not attempt to argue them into faith. Just a thought for today!
