"I do!"

Hey everybody! Sorry it took me so long to write, but with the Christmas season rushing like a whirlwind I hardly had time to even think about writing. But finally after everything has settled down somewhat, I remembered I do have a blog site! And the latest things I could think of was Rachel and Daniel.... and now Sarah and John Paul!! CONGRATS to our newly engaged couples!! Our blessings and support to both of them as they get closer and closer to their wedding. Well it looks like we'll have two weddings to plan on in the near future. One on March 29 and the next on June 14. Congratulations once again to both sets of couples!! We love you!!!

Please bear with me as I try to begin writing posts again!

Congratulations to our friend!!

As I'm sure you've all heard (and read Emily's blog), Sarah Schuurmans is now being courted by John Paul Tate!! Blessings to her and John Paul! We all love you Sarah and are behind you 100%! Keep looking to the Lord for what will come next in life. He never fails to surprise us with blessings when we follow Him!

How good is our God. He is so great and wonderful! He knows all our needs and even our wants. He knows what our dreams are and is so gracious to us. We're wrong when we doubt Him or wonder why He's not answering our prayers. He does everything in His wonderful perfect time... not ours. Sometimes we forget that His timing is the best. He does everything in His perfect time. Learning to trust in God is a life long endevor. If we commit everything to Him and believe that whatever happens is His will, there's nothing to worry about. I'm glad God is always looking for my best interest. He cares about me and does those things He knows is right for me in my life.

Thank you, Lord, for such a blessing for our friend... Sarah.
