Blessings

I guess it must just be the time of year with the 4th of July fast approaching, but I have been noticing lately all of the blessings God has given me! How wonderful it is serve such a great and amazing God, one who desires to have a deep and personal relationship with me. Not only that (and we know that would be more than enough) but He also created me to have and enjoy relationships with others! How blessed I am to enjoy those relationships He has placed in my life, I thought I would share some of them with you!

Jason - the one God has created just for me! How grateful I am that God has given me a husband who loves me and is committed to me alone. Jason you are a hard worker and I am so thankful for all that you do to provide for our family. I know that one day we will see the fruits of your labor, until then I am so glad to see you loving and enjoying your work!

Jordan - how can I ever convey the joy God has brought to my life through you. You are so fun to play with and I just love how much you enjoy life. You never waste a moment...all play, all the time. You have been given a huge zeal for life, every day I look forward to new and exciting things with you.

Alissa - we have yet to see you, but I know God is creating and fashioning you to be our daughter. He is forming you and I can't wait to see the beautiful creation He is making.

Family - I am so grateful for the way you support me and Jason as we grow in our marriage, grow in our parenting, and grow in the Lord. We feel so thankful for all of your generosity and encouragement. How thankful I am that each of you know the Lord and desire to walk in His ways!

Friends - thank you for all of the love you show us, each of you in your own special way.

Well, I hope that as you approach 4th of July weekend and remember the blessing of Freedom that has been bought for our country with a great price, that you also remember the Free Gift of Life that has been given to us through a much greater price. Jesus Christ loves you and died for you, He desires to have a relationship with you. After all, that's what we were created for - if you don't have Him, you don't have anything.
