Greetings, friends!
Just wanted to post some photos to share the latest of our lives. Hope yours is wonderful. I've been growing in deep ways as a daughter of God, mother of Abi, wife of Andrew, and a pastor at our church. Jesus has come to me in such beautiful, sometimes difficult, sometimes joyful, ways and I'm gobbling up every second He chooses to show up. This doesn't mean I get to spend devoted hours with Him every day, but I choose to get up early in the morning and be with Him, then actively seek Him and commune with Him while playing with Abi, or doing the dishes, or making dinner, or taking a walk with a friend, or working on something for my beloved church, or whatever is going on. If we seek Him, we will find Him, through the times we are flourishing or the times we are desolate. The key is that we seek Him.
May we all continue this awesome pursuit. Blessings!

I love seeing your family!!! Abi is ADORABLE and I absolutely love the picture of her looking at you!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love these pictures. What a perfect weekend it was! It was a once in a lifetime experience to see you and Andrew marry Wally and Kristi. I could feel Jesus blessing this event and see him guide you and Andrew as you spoke with both families. I know that it means so much to each one of them and they will remember and draw strength from those words in difficult times. Thank you. Love, mom and dad
