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.

Who Am I Imitating?

During the broadcast of the Summer Olympics story after story was told of different athletes who, as a child, saw someone that inspired them, and became determined to achieve the same goals as that person.  Because of someone that we knew and admired as a child many of us can recall wanting to grow up and become like them.  

This past weekend one of our pastors was preaching from Ephesians 5 and reminded me that as a beloved child of God I should be an imitator of Him.  What a great challenge and opportunity I have to share Christ's love by imitating Him.

Hu still finds his therapy sessions challenging.  Each visit they raise the bar of intensity and/or repetitions. Daily activities continue to be difficult due to his breathing limitations.  We are looking forward to that improving in the days ahead.

Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known.  But we know that when he appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. -- 1John 3:1c
