Run, Christian, Run!

Our Daily Bread
Sorry for the Forrest Gump reference, but it seemed appropriate today!  You remember that movie about a simple man that had an extraordinary life?  Christians have two things in common with him: we can also have an extraordinary life in Christ and we need to run-- to God!

The devotional talks about tempting it is in the world today.  We are constantly bombarded with the enemies' attempts to doubt our faith or stray from God.  Run, Christian!  Run to God!  ;-)  Yes, we can run to him to avoid the snares of the tempter.  To overcome evil and walk in the way of Christ!  Run today!

Lord, thank you for being our source of strength in our times of temptation and trial.  Please help us run to you!

Foodie Friday
So I leave for vacation in Orlando tomorrow.  Is there anything for a foodie to eat in Orlando, especially in the wonderful world of Disney?  Frankly, Disney is known for being the land of chicken nuggets, burger, hot dogs, etc for children.  Adults can have a hard time finding anything else unless you look.  Here is what noticed during my trips:

Downtown Disney
This is a open air shopping and eating area on a beautiful lake.  Lots to eat and do.  There are also a lot of adult eating places Raglan Road Irish Pub (great beef stew) and Bongos Cuban Cafe (owned by Gloria Estefan and family).  There are lots of other places, too!

Hotels
I think all of the Disney hotels have some kind of restaurant in them.  They vary a lot!  I like the restaurants in the Swan and the Dolphin hotels.  Very nice places.  Very nice restaurants for adults.

Universal Studios
The City Walk at Universal Studios had a nice selection of restaurants as well, though most are "bar food" kind of places.  There is an Emeril's, Hard Rock Cafe and Jimmy Buffets Margaritaville.

We will see what kind of places we go to.  We will also do some cooking in our condo, but probably breakfast the most.

Let go, my friends!  God will be there to catch you and hold you in his loving arms!
