Flowers Along the Occoquan. (Part of worship is stopping to enjoy and give thanks for God's handiwork.)
Volunteering, as I have been, on the NationalPrayerChapel.com website over the weekend, has an unexpected perquisite—waking up each morning in Pastor Ray Greenley’s guest bedroom with a clear view of the thin golden hair of pre-dawn light silhouetting the horizon across the Occoquan River.
