Just want to use today to give a special shout out to our supporters. That includes any one who prays for us or gives to our ministry. You rock. Quite frankly, without you we can\’t do what we are striving to do: reach the unreached in Brazil. We need your giving and more importantly weContinue reading “Thankful Thursday: Supporters”

Thankful Thursday/Journal Entry Combo
It\’s been, well, Thursday. I have been trying to decide all day what I want my Thankful Thursday post to be about. It\’s not that I don\’t have anything to be thankful for. I have a ridiculous amount of things to be thankful for. I\’m just in a bit of a slump. You\’ve been there,Continue reading “Thankful Thursday/Journal Entry Combo”
Thankful Thursday: The Grandparents
So, I only have 8 more working days until I officially become a stay-at-home mom and I couldn\’t be more excited! But I can\’t help but look back over the last year and think of how blessed we have been that Elliott has such great grandparents! Cindy (Richard\’s mom) has watched Elliott nearly every weekdayContinue reading “Thankful Thursday: The Grandparents”
Thankful Thursday: God doesn\’t live in a box
Some reasons we may wish that God did live in a box: Just looking at Him makes your face all shiny. I don\’t think any amount of Biore strips can help that. [Exodus 34:30] He can make the earth eat you. Which I imagine isn\’t a pleasant experience. [Exodus 26:10] He can turn people toContinue reading “Thankful Thursday: God doesn\’t live in a box”
Thankful Thursday: Seventeen
Today I am thankful for the number 17 because that\’s how many working days I have left before I get to be HOME with my little man! That means more of this: ….and this…. …and this… …and this… …and I get to squish these little cheeks a little more! So thankful for the privilege ofContinue reading “Thankful Thursday: Seventeen”
Thankful Thursday: The Calling
Today, I\’m thankful for the calling that God has placed on mine and Richard\’s lives. Sometimes, I\’m scared. I have no idea the trials that may await us in the Amazon Jungle. I don\’t know the culture. I don\’t know the tribal language. I\’ve never lived without running water or electricity before. I\’ve never hadContinue reading “Thankful Thursday: The Calling”
A Beautiful Ending
My Thankful Thursday post this past week mentioned a young man, Austin Foraker, who died tragically last weekend in a drowning accident. He was only 19. Austin was in Richard\’s small group for a couple of years and his sister, Kaylee, was in mine for three years. One of their biggest prayer requests that IContinue reading “A Beautiful Ending”
Thankful Thursday: God is Always Good
I\’m thankful that God is always good. Even when everything is lost. Even when tragedy comes. Even when we don\’t understand, God is good. Last Wednesday, tornadoes took hundreds of lives and destroyed thousands of homes. But God is still good. This past Saturday, one of Richard\’s former small group boys and the brother ofContinue reading “Thankful Thursday: God is Always Good”
Thankful Thursday: A Tough God
The past couple months have been a sort of roller coaster ride for me spiritually and emotionally. I feel like God\’s been vamping up the hard lessons and trying to teach me something… just not sure exactly what. Just being a bit transparent here. Today I\’m thankful for a tough God. And I mean thatContinue reading “Thankful Thursday: A Tough God”
Thankful Thursday: Servants of God
This morning I woke up and I thought it was Saturday. But it\’s not. It\’s Thursday. I came in to work today and I sat at my desk and pulled up our blog. I saw that there was a new post by Katie, a missionary to Uganda. I don\’t know Katie and the only wayContinue reading “Thankful Thursday: Servants of God”
