Low Country Haven
We’re spending the week at the Snow’s wonderful house on Edisto Island, SC. If there ever was a place in God’s creation to recover from the stress of the world, this is it — and we haven’t even been fishing yet! The photographs were taken out the picture window in the bathroom of the master suite. You can sit in the tub looking out over the saltwater creek and the marsh and begin feeling like The Prince of Tides. We are planning to spend the day in Charleston and I am looking forward to my first visit.

I ran across a passage from Thomas Aquinas last week that has caused a good bit of reflection and encouragement. "‘All the ways of a man are open to His eyes.’ (Prov 16:2) Our feet cannot carry us beyond the vision of God. The most wayward heart is still within reach of His understanding eyes. Triumph and failure, faded dreams, the ebbed courage, the flicked insults of ingratitude, and all the tantrums of childish rebellion do not have to be explained to God. He knows us, knows better than we can ever know; and loves us infinitely from the infinite depth of that understanding knowledge. His image is in us, however deeply buried under the debris of our living, and heaven is never beyond the reach of our fingers."
