Bible Reflections are triggered by my current reading of Scripture from the Holy Bible.
A few months ago, we moved to a new suburb. We now had to travel in the opposite direction on the freeway to church. It was very unfamiliar traveling the opposite way…it is amazing how we get quickly used to a particular way. As I approached the freeway exit, it just didn’t look familiar and…
