I’m honored to be guest posting on Carol McLeod’s blog! Please visit Carol’s blog to read, “Sheltered in His Arms.” The call came late at night. ‘One of the boys is missing … It’s Jack.’ Hastily, my dad put on his coat and drove to the Boy’s Home where he worked as Executive Director. Rain and ice pelted the car and the windshield wipers brushed away furrows of frost. The tires struggled for traction on

Will you stare longingly but never move? Will you open, yet never allow Him to enter past the threshold? Will you throw wide the door, enter in His presence, experience His freedom and grace, and dine in His limitless love? The choice is yours. “The world rams at
