​     1 Corinthians 10:13 talks about God being faithful and will not letting us be tempted beyond what we can bear. It goes on to say when we are tempted, he will also provide a way out so we can endure it. I believe he also provides a way out when life becomes overwhelming and we feel like we’re drowning. We may be drowning in debt, in the darkness of depression, or struggling through disappointments brought about from others or from life not going as expected. God is always there when the spillway opens and the waters rush towards us. We just need to open our eyes and look for the way out, or through it, that he has provided. Many times, it is in unexpected places.
     Today's picture was taken a few hours after the spillway had opened at one of my favorite state parks in Oklahoma last week. The other pictures are of the same area. One before the spillway opened and the other a few hours afterwards. What a difference! Life can come at us fast and hard some days with strong, scary currents trying to pull us under.

     Everyone needs that special partner in crime to travel and have adventures with. Maybe it's a life-long friend, or someone you have only known for a short time. It could be a spouse or other family member. As long as it's someone with a similar sense of adventure, there should be fun and laughs no matter where you go.
     How did you meet your adventure buddy? How long have you know them and what is the craziest adventure you have been on?

I see an outdoor tub for one here. What do you see?
