February, 2010

We had a wonderful Christmas and New Year with our family.  Joe and Carolyn drove up from Ashville, N.C. to join us.  Our daughters surprised us with a 40th anniversary present.  They hired a professional photographer to come and take some pictures of us.  We even got Paul and Christin’s dog, Jessie, in the picture.  We had a blast posing for the expert.  You’ll receive one in the near future to hang on your refrigerator.  All our family is healthy and multiplying.  Paul and Christin are pregnant and due in August.  Please pray with us for Paul and Christin as they will soon become parents.  Cori continues to love her job teaching at Rowan University, and Catelyn is at top of her 3rd grade class.  She takes after her grandfather!  Don’t laugh, I was pretty smart in the 3rd grade!

 We finally made the big decision.  We’re moving.  We’re down-sizing.  Our house went up for sale three weeks ago.  If you know someone who is looking for a beautiful home in the Paoli, PA area, give me a call.

 I have been reading several books in anticipation of teaching a new series from February to May entitled, “Power-Money-Women-Wisdom.”  Of course, the main book I will teach from is the Bible.  Please pray that God will open the hearts and minds of men to hear, understand, apply God’s principles, change and become better husbands, fathers, grandfathers, friends, workers, and citizens.  What a privilege it is to share the Gospel and love men to Christ.

 The thought that has grabbed my attention in the last few weeks is this.  Though I am a great sinner, God is a greater Savior.  Though I fail to love consistently, God loves the same all the time.  God is for me.  He is my provider, protector, and friend.  He is my strength when I am weak.  He is my hope when I am worried and fearful.  God will never leave me or forsake me.  He guides and comforts when I turn to Him in faith.  He continues to pour out His love when I am unlovely and insensitive.  I am overwhelmed with his grace, mercy, kindness, and goodness. He is our God and through His power at work within us, He is able to accomplish more than we ever dare to ask or imagine.  To our God the Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ be honor and glory forever.

 All Because of Jesus,
