Tunes Tuesday:__________________________________________________________

“I found my mind, I’m feeling sane.  It’s been a while, but I’m finding my faith.  If everything’s good and it’s great, why do I sit and wait until it’s gone.  I’ve got peace and I’ve got love.”  ~Benson Boone’s “Beautiful Things”

What are a few of the beautiful things you cherish?  How might you show a little extra love and appreciation this week to your people?
