Great-grandkids

Here we are with our daughter Janet and all 8 of our great-grandchildren. They are a fun bunch of kids! We always appreciate their parents for bringing them to visit us.

Moving ahead

Just thinking that sometimes we get stuck with old ideas which really hold us back, when we need to trust the Lord to guide us into new ideas, processes and programs that will move us forward. I think that's what the Apostle Paul meant in 2 Timothy 1:13b-14 "...But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus." This can apply to each of us individually as well as to "us" as a group.

Attributes of Love

Love

Love is patient and kind.
Love is not jealous, it does not brag, and it is not proud.
Love is not rude, is not selfish, and does not get upset with others.
Love does not count up wrongs that have been done.
Love takes no pleasure in evil but rejoices over the truth.
Love patiently accepts all things.
It always trusts, always hopes, and always endures.
Love never ends.

–Paul, in 1 Corinthians 13:4-8a (New Century Version)
