The Happy Three!



Isn't it amazing.... how God loves us!!!!! I look at these 3 and am constantly reminded of the way God takes care of us in ALL ways. In 6 weeks we'll have a new member of our family, and it is just awesome how God is working in their lives. Pray for this new family, as they begin their life together as a couple, together as a new family unit, and together in a new state. Pray for this grandma's heart.. and papa's too as we adjust to a branch of the family breaking off into a different place. I know the branches don't stay on the tree, how can they, and continue to grow.. So, it's changepoints.. the part of changing that is hard on a mom's heart. Why do we have to let go? Who said that? ha ha Time for me to do some changing too, isn't it wonderful that even though life doesn't always end up meeting our hopes and dreams, that God's grace is ALWAYS sufficient to meet us just where we need it?

Change is definitely hard...A piece of your heart will go with them, but it is a good thing! Change helps us grow and also helps us rely on Christ for our needs. I think of the song "Give me Jesus"....He's really all we need! You can feel confident that Jen will be taken care of by a godly man! Isn't that what a mother wants for her daughter's? Yeah, ask me that in 20 years when my girls want to move away! Love you!
