God's timing is always perfect. After talking to my almost-college-graduate son (four more weeks) last night I became aware of his feelings of uncertainty as to what his future will hold.
Then as I was looking through some blogs this morning I came across SALT's challenge. The theme was " believe" and this verse was shown.

With that divine inspiration, it took me about 20 minutes to put together this clear clipboard to send him and, hopefully, encourage him about this future. The little pocket on the bottom holds another tag which lets mom write something more personal that not everyone will see:0).
