Good afternoon Col Burroughs and all of my brothers and sisters here on VFV. Every moment of our life we grow, many ways that we don’t even think about, our sleep for example is an opportunity for our bodies to grow strong, from the rest we give it. Every challenge or blessing we receive is an opportunity for us to grow. Do not ignore them, instead embrace them and grow in the knowledge and Love of our awesome God. Have a blessed day today and always.
