Gerald Ray and Timmy were walking through the park. They had just finished playing ball with their friends and were on their way home. But they were not quite ready to go home. The two brothers decided to sit by the small pond and skip stones across the water. “Wow! That was a good one!” Gerald Ray shouted! “Timmy was always good at skipping stones,” he thought to himself. Have you ever wondered how God talks to you or...
