Weekend in Review
This weekend was incredible! First off, I had the amazing privilege of being the best man in my brother David’s wedding on Saturday. It was an amazing ceremony. He and Emily are going to change the world for God! Also great to see so many family from out of state (Chicago, Kansas City, St. Louis, Houston)!
On the trip back from the wedding we found out that our dog ran away (this part of our weekend was not incredible, but the incredible part is coming). She had been missing for 8 1/2 hours when we got the news. It was getting dark by the time we were nearing home and… BY A MIRACLE OF GOD Jessica spotted our puppy walking along the side of a two-lane highway about a half mile from our house! So, praise God, our puppy once was lost but now is found!
Lastly, really enjoyed preaching Sunday from James 1:2-4 on how to face trials. We can allow trials in life to either strengthen us or devastate us. If Christ is the center of our life, he will carry us through anything. While he may or may not deliver us from the pain of all trials, he will always be present with us to strengthen us and prepare us for our ultimate home with him.
