And yet we seem to worship everything, but Him. That’s the thing. We were created to be worshipers and all of us are really good at worship. We attribute worth to something in our lives for it is that which gives our life meaning. We can give worth to our looks, to our money, to our homes, to our families,…

Our grandson Riley (you knew if I was talking babies, I’d end up here, didn’t you), is without a doubt, the best-looking, fastest-growing, popular, smartest, and, in general greatest little kid alive.
