This week my dad and mom have been teaching a girls club at VBS at their Church.
Josh's dad is at camp counseling young boys and two of our nephews are there too. And Josh's mom is faithfully working for PRC counseling young pregnant mothers.
What a gold mine to have all of our kids' grandparents spending their retirement days adding to God's family!
Josh and I pray that our children's bling bling will be for the cross of Christ and the rich love of God!
I love these verses in Isaiah 55 claiming God's richness.
"Come, everyone who thirsts, come to the waters; and he who has no money, come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without price...Seek the LORD while He may be found...as the heavens are higher than the earth so My ways higher than your ways."
Well, thanks dads and moms for being great examples!
I hope they see Christ even through the reality of Josh and my squabbles and our everyday attitude struggles:)
