My New Home!

Ok followers! I finally put all my writing in one place.. So come on over and visit my new home! Hope you will decide to follow me there as well!
I will be writing my own daily devotionals in the very near future. You will also see a page called "At the Well", where you will find post about my "life" testimony, with some Mennoite history.
  I love taking nature pictures! I will be adding some there with quotes and scripture. Right now I still have a few things to organize before I will begin all of that!
 Everything I have posted here, you will still find over at the new place.
 Thank you for joining me and would love to hear your comments and insight over at the new place!

Hop on over for A Splash of Living Water .... Hope to "see" you there!

Our First Born Son

 I did a guest post  on Threshold of Heaven  about  our first born son. The website there was created by a friend of ours, who has had to say bye to his son Jesse  as well.  Check out his story while you are there!

Jesus Our Foundation

 I was looking out the window as my husband and sons came driving up to the front of the house. My oldest 2 daughters were playing behind me but I'm not even sure where the baby was at that very moment. As I'm watching the van drive up it suddenly started to spin around in circles. I figured I better tell them to stop that and headed for the door. As I opened the door, a massive, strong wind began to push against it. Very quickly this storm began to wrap itself around the house and I got this feeling in my stomach as if we were being lifted. I screamed for the girls to come grab my hand, but we just weren't able to reach each other at this point... Oh and the baby! Where is the baby!?  That is when I woke up! Immediately the parable popped in my mind about the wise and foolish builders in Matthew 7. 
²⁴ “Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: ²⁵ and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.

²⁶ “But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand: ²⁷ and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall.”

I am reminded that Jesus is our rock. We need Him as the foundation in our homes.

⁹ For we are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field, you are God’s building. ¹⁰ According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I have laid the foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one take heed how he builds on it. ¹¹ For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.  1 Corinthians 3:9-11
