Lyssa enjoyed a day on the farm!
Here's a few things I am thankful for this week...
- Lyssa spent a day helping her friend paint the inside of her house. (The picture above is from that adventurous day.)
- Our church staff had a dinner and I was reminded how blessed I am by the life God has allowed me live being in pastoral ministry...and we work with a great bunch of people.
- Saturday we celebrated 5 graduates in our church, and again I was struck by the precious relationships in that room and what a wonderful church family we have.
- Sunday evening Lyssa, and her boyfriend Jered, made dinner for the family. Be still my heart.
- Kyle helped teach Sunday School in the 2-5 year old class on Sunday. I think he actually had a good time. I was touched by his openness to help out.
- Sunday someone blessed me with a gift for my upcoming trip. I was touched by their generosity and God's provision for my splurge vacation.
- Lyssa has been working each day this week. So thankful she found a summer job.
- One night both kids were piled up on my bed, chatting up a storm, and I loved that. These days are few and I want to treasure each moment as they come. (Picture below, thought it's not very good. My teenagers like to take their own pictures, but fight me when I want to take a picture of them.)
God has been so evident this week and my heart is filled with reverence and awe.
Lord, I am thankful for the life you have given me. I am richly blessed. I love the ways I see your hand at work in Alyssa and Kyle's lives and know that you are continually wooing them to yourself. Thank you for being a wonderful Savior, Protector, Father, and Friend.
