From the Word

"May they sing of the ways of the Lord, for the glory of the Lord is great." Psalm 138:5

There's no place like home!

In the last week we have done a fair share of traveling and spent too many hours on the road! We are almost ready to put our Greensboro house on the market and let me tell you--that house never looked as good as it does now, at least not when we lived in it! In addition to the fact that it would be financially a wonderful thing to only have one mortgage, I really do think it is a great house in a super neighborhood. I pray the Lord will send the right family to come and make some wonderful memories there and I pray He will send them SOON! Brian is almost finished with his work, Edgar made a second trip to help, and the floors will be done next week. We would appreciate your prayers.

Now that we are back in our real home in GA, Ryan and I are going to VBS all week--he is having a ball and I am really enjoying the 5 year olds. We are teaching the kids to Know God's Truth, Speak God's Truth, and Live God's Truth--a big challenge for us all.

We are looking forward to several friends and family members coming by this summer for a visit and we will do a short trip to Tennessee for a little family vacation. I have recently learned that several people with home I graduated from High School actually live in the Atlanta area, this is something considering how many decades ago that graduation took place! Even more exciting is the fact that 4-5 of my dearest HS friends are among those in the area and we are planning to get together in July. Most of us have not seen each other, or had any communication in over 35 years, but the recent emails and phone calls have been delightful.
The really scary thing is that most of us were in Chorale together and we are planning to meet where there are guitars and pianos--could give all new meaning to 'joyful noise'.
