PRAISING GOD

I had not spoken about it on my blog much but Mickey & I moved a young man from our church into our 5th wheel in our back yard on August 21st. Mickey also gave him our 92 Chevy S-10 pickup to drive. On August 27th another couple from our church hired him to work for them.

He & his wife were facing some difficult times and decisions. They have 4 precious young children ages 2 to 7.

It has been such a joy to Mickey & I to be able to minister to this young couple over these past 10 weeks. More to him than to her because we saw him on almost a daily basis.

About 4 weeks ago he began to once again attend church with us and they sat in the pew in front of us. It was such a joy for all of us: them, us, and the Church Body to see them worshiping together.

Two days ago, on Tuesday, he moved back home where he needs to be. We thank God for the opportunity Mickey & I had to be able to extend help to this couple and watch as God has begun to restore their marriage. To lay that firm foundation that can only be laid by God and upon God. That foundation on which to build the marriage and the ministry that God had in mind for this young couple, and their family, from the very beginning.

Praise God, Praise God, Praise God!!!!!!!

May we each be the Lords hands extended when the opportunity arises. Most importantly of all let us not shoot our wounded Christians.

Thank you Lord.....

for what you HAVE done, what YOU are doing and what YOU will do

in ALL our lives if we will but let YOU.
