Dec 2013-Jan 2014 update

Hi everyone,

How is 2014 going for you so far? I am sorry it has been so long since I have blogged. Here is some of what has been going on in my life since my last post.   I was challenged and encouraged by a Bible conference that I attended in Tennessee. Then we had good friends from Colorado visit us. We also hosted a wonderful concert at our books and coffee shop last week. http://www.lifehouse.org
The musicians were the Wissmann Family from Nebraska. Check out their blog for more info. http://wissmanns.blogspot.com/

Here is one of my favorite songs of theirs: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9O3HRO4aAc

That's all for now.

I pressed these leaves in between the pages of one of our Encyclopedia Brittanicas. The leaves are from our Bradford Pear Tree in the back yard.

      I like polka dots.

We had an ice storm. Then it was sunny and warm for a few days. Then the next week it was snowing. Talk about crazy weather. :)




 The trees looked especially pretty when the sun was shining through the ice.


 I flew to Nashville, TN for a Bible conference.

    A magnificent sunrise in Nashville.

 Another sunrise.







 The Theme of the conference: Fight the Fight  
                                                 Finish the Course    
                                                 Keep the Faith

New friends I met at the conference.  They flew all the way from Japan!

I've met those people from Japan!! I can't remember their names off the top of my head, but how cool is that?! The Church makes the world a very small place. :-)

Happenings in my home...

“The same Jesus Who turned water into wine can transform your home, your life, your family, and your future. He is still in the miracle-working business, and His business is the business of transformation.”    ~ Adrian Rogers “A man ought to live so that everybody knows he is a Christian… and most of all, his family ought to know.”     ~ D. L. Moody                                                                                                   I just started reading "The God Who is There" by Francis Schaeffer. It is an excellent book.                                   This cat has been hanging out by our back door, and w...

Jesus Christ - and We

Jesus Christ- and We Christ has no hands but our hands ,   to do His work today; He has no feet but our feet   to lead men in His way; He has no tongue but  our tongues to tell men how He died, He has no help but our help   to bring them to His side. We are the only Bible,  the careless world will read; We are the sinners' gospel,  we are the scoffers' creed; We are the Lord's last message,  Written in deed and word- what if the line is crooked,  what if the type is blurred? What if our hands are busy,  with other work than His, What if our feet are walking,  where sin's allurement is? What if our tongues are speaking, of things His lips would spurn, How can we hope to help Him,  Unless from Him we learn? By Annie Johnson Flint  (1862-1932)    I was going through my old school folders and found this great poem. It is so true. We as Christians are to show the world how Christ would act and ta...
