Happy New Year!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

For us this year has held many joyful experiences along with much "waiting."

We look back on much waiting and we look forward to more in the coming year.  The LORD reminded me this morning of the following.

Psalm 33:18-22  Behold, the eye of the LORD is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his steadfast love,  ¹⁹ that he may deliver their soul from death and keep them alive in famine.  

²⁰ Our soul waits for the LORD; he is our help and our shield.  ²¹ For our heart is glad in him, because we trust in his holy name.  ²² Let your steadfast love, O LORD, be upon us, even as we hope in you.

We look to the LORD as our help and our shield as our soul waits before him.  He is the ONE who has made glad our hearts.

Below are some pictures from our New Year's Eve Celebration in Thailand:

Visit to the Dolphinarium!

OUR GOD IS A GREAT BIG GOD!!!!
Yes there is much sand here.
But recently we were able to enjoy watching a little water.
We were astounded and amazed at our God once again as we enjoyed a show at the local Dolphinarium.
It was almost impossible to catch what they can do on camera but we thought we would share some of the joy with you.
Just imagine and be reminded...
What a GREAT BIG GOD we serve and know and love.

Christmas 2009

John 3:17   For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.

We had a wonderful time celebrating the life we have in Christ and the fulfillment of all His promises to us in Christ.

We had several parties, caroling, giving out candy canes and times together as family, sharing the story of Christmas as often as we could.

We decorated our "Jesus Tree." Each ornament declaring something about Who God is or who we are because of Christ.

We opened our stockings Christmas day after sharing what our gifts to Jesus were this year.

I think Bliss found something she liked!!!

We enjoyed an all American meal of turkey, potatoes, sweet potatoes and more!!

"HAPPY" Christmas from us all!!!
