Dad's Lessons from the Sandlot: Encourage

Dad's Lessons from the Sandlot

Dad's Lessons from the Sandlot was written in 2006, two years before Billy Crain passed away suddenly on June 3, 2008. He never got the book published, but our family felt inpired and led by God to find a publisher and get the book in printed from. The book uses the transparency of Billy's baseball stories to expose God's hand in the details of our lives. The ultimate journey leads us to see God is in our stories and to train us to recognize it is really HIS STORY in our humanity. To order your copy today contact jennifercrain@sbcglobal.net.

Encourage

This will be short. I just want to thank all the people that comment on the blog. Even if your answer has been a simple "Yes". It feels like food to my spirit that has been so worn down with grief.Steve Meeks (pastor at Calvary Church) preached today on How to Love God. I have been so focused on trying to see how He is loving me that I forgot Mark 12: 29-30.The Message Bible: Jesus said, "The FIRST in importance is, Listen, Israel: The Lord your God is one;so love the Lord God with all your Passion and Prayer and Intelligence and Energy. And here is the second : Love others as well as you love yourself. There is no other commandment that ranks with these. My friends, I believe that as we put our desire and wills to loving Him, he will give us the rest and encouragement we need to keep on, keeping on. I love you, Jennifer
