This was a fun outing with the PWOC ladies last week! Getting off post is quite the trip here, so it is really special when the opportunity provides itself to spend time away with the girls. This night will always remain in my memory for several reasons…. I was so thankful to spend time with sweet friends. […]
Vacation Bible School!
What a sweet, sweet week this has been for me! As we transitioned into our usual routine, different time zone, and being around the kids without family present, we needed a CHANGE of scenery! We had the awesome blessing of serving at VBS this year and I had the wonderful opportunity to work with the […]
Sweet comfort and joy to my soul…
Much of my time with Lewis so far has been spent doing this: However, truly, if you train them up in the way they should go, when they are old, they won’t depart from it. I really believe this promise in childrearing. If we allow ourselves to be a vessel of the Lord to teach God’s commands […]
An amazing adventure…!!!
We are back! I am still processing so much of the beauty and love we experienced the past two weeks on our trip to Canada and back. We had the most amazing time. The trip there and back was definitely one of relying on the Lord for strength. Lewis only had one moment each way […]
Embarking on a pilgrimage….
As we embark on our pilgrimage to Canada–a long trip there, a beautiful, pristine 2 weeks basking in God’s creation and with people we so dearly love and who so dearly love us…and then a long trip back…we are praying God’s grace over each step of our journey. God has told us to go from […]
A respite from the desert- A Trip to San Diego
“But you would be fed with the finest of wheat; with honey from the rock I would satisfy you.” -Psalm 81:16 Praise God that we have a God who delights in satisfying us and taking care of us so sweetly, gently, and lavishingly. Isn’t He AMAZING??? As I stood before the beautiful sandy […]
Vows
I was always a bit timid of making vows to the Lord…as I never wanted to break them. I think vows come from a genuine desire to give something to the Lord, out of true adoration, trust, and thankfulness. God helps us keep these vows. And they come, I think, at the perfect time to make […]
My comforter, energizer, and encourager!!!
God has comforted me today…as I struggled yesterday. Yesterday the Enemy attacked much of the day and I was downtrodden…and my body was hurting too…but the Lord lifted me up! He lifted me up with victory in the moments of temptation, He lifted me up through friends who care so deeply…about me and the things […]
A thirst for souls…
God wants us to have a thirst and hunger for the salvation of souls…as He does…and sometimes, the desire for salvation can be overwhelming for us…and of course, way outside our control. We can only do the things God asks us to do…(plant the seeds)…and thankfully, the rest is in His hands. There is weeping […]
Trip to the Top of Mount Blackie!
I wanted to take Lew Lew to the top of Mount Blackie the other day, because he has been asking to go again since his cousins left in April. He loves to hike and had fun hiking with daddy on their camping trip to Big Bear too. Daddy said Lewis was a trooper and hiked […]
