Life at the Ranch

Today is the first day of Vacation Bible School. This year we are visiting the Saddle Ridge Ranch, learning about the God who has answers. It’s a good thing. I think we’ve answered about five hundred questions already this morning, and that we just from the first child who registered.

Our theme scripture is one of my favorites:

James 1:5
If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him.

I need wisdom every day, but especially the week of VBS. The first day of VBS is always a wonderful, chaotic, beautiful mixture of children enjoying new experiences to learn about Christ’s love. I’m grateful for every person who plans, paints, constructs, teaches, sings, runs, and creates to make this week possible, and especially to the God who makes it worth all the effort. We look forward to a great week!
