Jason Bedell Online

This photo is just a few of the current ones, but I love Vans. I've been wearing their shoes for the past 18+ years. I just love the way they feel on my feet- comfort, but I can still feel the ground underneath me (not walking on a cloud like some of these new shoes out there). It always takes awhile to break in a new pair and it doesn't get just right until about 2-3 months into wearing them. But then- it's a little slice of heaven.

You probably have some shoes that you just LOOOOVVEEE. You wouldn't part with them for anything. My shoes not only are a source of comfort for me, but they each tell their own story.

Each pair of Vans is a moment in time. A reminder of the journey. A flashback. I can look and remember where I was, what happened, and what I wish I could forget. But it's my history. It's what has molded me into the man God has here now.

So, here it begins. A daily journey with these old Vans n' the man who wears them. I'll open up and share life's ups and downs as He's brought me here to this place where I am now a happily married man with a beautiful daughter and an amazing church.

But, life wasn't always so "peachy keen" and it never stays that way for long. The comforting thing is God never promised a safe and easy journey, but He does promise to be there all along the way. I'm excited and a little nervous to share through this series, but I pray my life may somehow speak to yours.

Until then,
Jason *over and out*
