As human beings our minds are constantly at work comparing and judging what’s best. Too many times everyone else seems to have it better than we do. To use and old analogy, the grass always seems greener somewhere else. If we are the grass, we are green but over there it seems to have a […]
I love sharing examples of seeing God work in our lives. It reminds us that He is real and present with us… Recently, our family was traveling to the East Coast and found ourselves between snow and ice storms. I poured over map and weather sites trying to select the perfect route. We were heading from Indiana […]
(Psalm 62:1-12 NASB) 1 My soul waits in silence for God only;From Him is my salvation. 2 He only is my rock and my salvation,My stronghold; I shall not be greatly shaken. 3 How long will you assail a man,That you may murder him, all of you,Like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence? 4They have counseled only […]
The New year is before us and several will be setting their New Year’s Resolutions. I would like to suggest only 3. Spend more time in awe of Jesus. Daily meditate on who He is and what He has done for you. Thrive on His word, in […]

We are not as alone as we think we are. There can be many reasons why we feel alone. Perhaps we have been rejected by the world at large. It could be that we are facing difficult times that seem different than anyone else we know or we don’t want to take a chance on the […]
We are up early and ready to catch the 6am shuttle. What a wonderful trip we have had growing closer to God, making new friends, and enjoying His creation in Guatemala. It seems to have gone so quickly; however, I can’t wait to hold my children in my arms again. We’ll be flying into Des […]
What a great privilege it was to work on the School Project/Ministry House with a team from all over the U.S. We were so focused that we didn’t even stop to take a picture until the very end. This unfortunately meant not all of our fellow workers are in the picture. One of […]
We’re worked on the ministry house again. More trenches and busting out flooring and walls today. It’s the location that will eventually house the Gym, staff housing, as well as a REC center. I have to admit with all the changes I’ve seen, I was a little surprised that this building […]
