		<title>The Abiding Journey Process</title>

		<title>Acting like a dog&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today while I was out on a hike with my dog I noticed that Buddy, that&#8217;s my dog&#8217;s name, would run up ahead of me until he couldn&#8217;t see me anymore and then he would stop and let me catch up.

		<title>Am I longing for my coffee more than my God?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This morning I had this thought, &#8220;If I were as consistent in nurturing my relationship with Christ as I am with getting my coffee fix each day my life would be so much more enjoyable and fruitful.&#8221; It comes down to what I believe&#8230; 1.
