IN THE WORD:

Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices
Tell God you are ready to be poured out as an offering & God will prove himself to be all you ever dreamed he would be ~ Oswald Chambers
IN MY LIFE
It’s official, we are about to sail away! Yesterday we flew to New Orleans, where we will be embarking upon the family life love like you mean it marriage cruise in just a few hours.
I will be honest, yesterday was a little rough for me. The last time I was in New Orleans was 20 years ago and I don’t have great memories, and even just walking two blocks on Bourbon Street brought a lot of those up. But once we were able to veer off the path and discover something new together, it reminded me that we all have a choice in our destiny. I am not a slave to yesterday or my past and it is up to me to believe the truth of who God has called me to be and rewrite my future.
Even in just the few hours I have been awake this morning, I have been able to work out, breathe deeply, read and meditate on God’s word. I am reminded of the importance of taking time for ourselves and investing in our marriage. While you may not be able to join me on the cruise this year, I hope you will learn from my lessons (& consider joining us next year! 😉
I don’t know if I will have Wi-Fi this week to be able to bring you the Daily Dash every day, but you know I will do my best. Make sure to follow me on social media @thesamicone & I will be using the hashtag #LLYMICruise. Ahoy!
