For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

As summer 2007 slips away, it is time to remember that God is with us at all times during the whole year. Even during times of ups and downs when we feel the pressures of the world.

This image reminds me of summer days of rest, vacation, swimming, and swings. In particular, I remember recess. Recess was such a great break from studying and working on school problems. With that blue sky and puffy clouds, can you imagine that child (or yourself) jumping into eternity?

For you educators (Alexis), education administrators, school employees (Hicks), and students (HY working on her dissertation and Chris), I hope all of you have a great semester.

By the way, the picture title comes from Jeremiah 29:11.
