How to respond?
Brian’s heart was burdened today by the happenings in Syria…God has given him a continual burden for the direction of our country and also its role in international relations. He talked to me about it in the car today…and Lewis was in the back seat listening so intently…his little heart has been grappling with big […]
Promises to Cling to.
I am still pregnant (wouldn’t you know?) 🙂 And I am still battling being too emotional. BUT…God is giving me victory through His promises. Yesterday, I woke up really sick once again with morning sickness at 23 weeks. Hannah has dropped her afternoon nap mostly since we moved here (it was a big surprise as […]
Rich words…

I love this song….and even more lately. Some days […]

Living Sanctuary
“Lord prepare me a sanctuary, pure and holy, tried and true, with Thanksgiving, I’ll be a living Sanctuary for You.” He gives us these trials, not that we may Run, but that we may seek the One who gives us everything we need, that we might be pure and holy, tried and true…beautiful and pleasing […]
Walking on the Tightrope…
Isn’t it amazing when we think from looking at the past, that we may have conquered a fear…but God shows us how MUCH we continually need Him to keep taking our fears away? Perhaps you’ve heard this story before, but I’m going to tell it again, because it was an amazing story of how God […]
SNOWMAN FUN!!!
My heart is full of thanks to the Lord for the great things He hath done in our hearts and home 🙂 It has been a bit of an adjustment coming to a particularly snowy winter here in Kansas from the desert 🙂 We LOVED seeing the fresh snow and playing in it though…well, most […]
