You know that feeling you get when you’re working on the computer but then the computer crashes and you freak out because you’re afraid that all is lost? It’s a very stressful moment!

For today’s Selah Saturday, I would like to share with you all a message written by my friend Emily Gorsky Bonanno. Emily is a dear friend of mine who was recently diagnosed with End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD).

This past week, my friends and I gathered on Zoom for an impromptu prayer meeting. Specifically, we prayed for Afghanistan and that God would bring peace to the land and healing to its people.

Last week I took a spontaneous trip to Round Valley. I set up a little picnic for myself over by the lake and just enjoyed the nature surrounding me. From where I sat, I was able to see a few beautiful hills rolling on the horizon. The hills looked so big and majestic, and I wanted to capture that in a picture.

Given that tomorrow is Father’s Day, I’d like to share with you one of my favorite memories I have of me and my dad. Maybe about 10 years ago or so, my dad and I went to go for a walk. It was cloudy out, and he asked me if I wanted to bring an umbrella.

Have you ever had a conversation with someone you’ve never met before and walked away feeling like God was using that person to speak to you in some way? I had that happen to me recently. This person I had just met one day openly shared with me his testimony and an encounter with God that he had the week before.
