Well, I’m done with the dishes and everything is in its place for a new week. It has been a great weekend of rest and time well spent with my wife and kids. I wanted to share our beautiful little Spanish style cross that hangs above our kitchen sink. My wife’s ancestors are from Barcelona, Spain (as recent as Great Grandpa). I also grew up here in Colorado with a Mother who loves Southwestern art, so I love it. Colorado history is cool and there is a lot of Spanish flavor here in the Rocky Mountain West! It is fitting for our home, and it is a beautiful reminder to keep our eyes on the Lord. Jesus Christ is Lord and He rules our home. Not me. I am not the king and this is not my castle. Jesus is The King and He has all authority here! He is the center of our family’s love, hope, and joy and I pray every day that our hearts would be centered on Him!
“Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.”
Hebrews 12:2-3

As we get ready to start a new week, I pray we fix our eyes on Jesus as He leads us in the good plans He has for us. I appreciate all of you and I want to thank you all for your encouragement and support! You are all brave for opening up your hearts and sharing your souls with others. I look forward to reading your blogs this week and I love chatting with you all! May the Lord bless, anoint, and protect each one of us in the power of the Holy Spirit and may our hearts be fully centered on Jesus! Amen!
It’s going to be a great week in Christ!
No matter what may come our way, He will see us through! Buenas Noches amigos!
Grace and peace to you all!
“He is the center of our family’s love, hope, and joy and I pray every day that our hearts would be centered on Him!” Amen, Ryan.
