Slide Time


This is what Grace woke up to today after her nap! She loves slides. We can play with it inside or outside. After our first week in TX being super hot....we are glad for the functionality of the slide. Grace does not like swings. I do not know if she feels like she is out of control or what. As soon as we put her in a swing or we hold her on a swing, she starts crying and wants to get down.

One thing I would love for Grace to learn at a young age is that we have control of nothing as much as we like to think we do. God has all control and authority. As believers we are called to trust and believe His Word. My prayer is that Grace sees her mom as a woman who lives out her faith and belief in God through her actions, words and lifestyle. "what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe according to the working of His mighty power." Ephesians 1:19


Today Eric preached in John 6:60-71. One of the last verses of the text in verse 69 Simon Peter says "We have come to believe and know that you are the Christ the Son of the living God." In the verses before 69, Jesus asks his disciples some tough questions and He asks us tough questions too. He does remind them from verse 65 that He is the initiator of life, sustainer of life, author of life and He is sovereign over life. May Grace see in Eric and I that our lives reflect more than just we believe in God but that we know Him!
