I’m walking a journey with God.
I walk with a husband, eight children, family, friends as well.

I’m told it’s extreme, but God prefers hot or cold to lukewarm, so I accept the criticism as an honour: I seek to see God in everything, reflect His holiness, learn to worship Him, think of Him *constantly*

This journey is like building a picket fence; one picket on its own doesn’t do a lot, but as picket after picket goes up, a line is made, a fence takes shape, a boundary outlined.
I pray my pickets of praise and thanksgiving will lead towards God.
