Thanks so much for stopping by. My hope is that you will be encouraged and comforted by traveling with us on this adventure as you see how God can take the challenges of life to assure us of the living hope that is available by faith to us all through Jesus Christ.

Thanks, also, to each of you who have personally ministered to me and my family through your thoughts, prayers of faith, visits, messages, many acts of kindness and words of encouragement, especially during those dark days, and then for the long haul during my extended recovery season.

A young boy with great faith

David and Goliath is a familiar story but after reading it again today I was thinking about David's great faith as he took on the giant Goliath.  Even his brothers ridiculed him for even thinking about going up against Goliath.  His faith in God was unwavering and he knew that even though he was just a boy that the Lord would take care of him if he called on His name.

That also brought to my mind a song entitled "His Name" by New Life Worship.  This is the chorus of the song:

Your name is a strong and mighty tower
Your name is a shelter like no other
Your name, let the nations sing it louder
'Cause nothing has the power to save
But Your name


What a powerful God He is!  We thank you for your prayers for Hu especially since he had the bump in the road this week.  He has been gradually improving for which we are thankful.

We have appreciated the prayer requests that some of you have sent for us to pray for from time to time.  Please keep them coming as we want to share in your burdens as well as you in ours.  Together we can call on His name. 

The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.  Prov. 18:10
