JOURNALING GOD AND GOLF
Let God's daily bread grow your faith, so you are spiritually healthy and prepared to live your best life. This is my personal journey with God and golf.
This is my 3rd time reading the bible from beginning to end, and each day I have learned something completely new. I say that to say….I am no scholar with God’s Word! This is my personal journey, my personal adoration, love, excitement, and reverence, but also my doubts, questions, misunderstandings, and fears. It’s a daily journey I’ve committed myself to, and the only difference now is that I’m inviting each of you to embrace it with me.
“May the Lord bless you and protect you. May the Lord smile on you and be gracious to you. May the Lord show you his favor and give you his peace.” (Numbers 6:24-26)
