it was really November...but right now worked better to plan an event

whenever it's convenient for you. Super simple, Snacks, a slideshow,
family albums, fellowship, maybe a game. We hope some of you can make
it!! PS I, Elizabeth, hacked mom and dad's account, I thought I better
let you know that :) Oh, one more thing, if you ever received a page to
fill out for Mom and Dad's album you are more than welcome to do that
still :) Better late than never! Photo Credit goes to the amazing photographer Emily Mitton.

The National Bible Bee was such a special time. Matthew and Rachel were planning on going to help judge the competition. I thought that is sounded like they were going to have a lot of fun. Mom said "Elizabeth why don't you go along with them?" So that's what happened. Having only ever flown when a baby, Flying was definitely exciting for me! I was so thankful for all the divine appointments that God sent my way! I would appreciate prayer for Christopher and Stephen, two Catholics that I had a really good witnessing conversation with. </span></td></tr>

I will always treasure the first evening we spent there. Matthew and I met Rachel for the first time in 3 months. Rachel had been in Ok serving and ministering in some of the schools there. We enjoyed long talks, an elegant meal at a fancy restaurant and a cool evening swim. We really need to treasure the moments that we have with our loved ones. The time with them truly is a precious gift from God.</span></td></tr>

What do we do to deserve such a loving God and family?? Absolutely nothing!! I can't explain this paradox. Then I think of these all familiar verses that we all need to be reminded of again and again.<br />
It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. Lamentations 3:22-23<br />
There! If that doesn't explain things than nothing ever will. It is a matter of faith. Faith in a infinite God who though we can't always wrap our minds around him we can absolutely trust him. He makes no mistakes, nothing is ever random change. Whatever God sends our way we have the opportunity to embrace it as part of God's will for our lives, or we can doubt and question this incredible God.(Which will only lead to trouble). Yes, this type of faith might be mind blowing to think about. <span class="text Heb-11-6" id="en-KJV-30179"><sup class="versenum">Hebrews 11:6 </sup>But
without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God
must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that
diligently seek him.</span><span class="text Heb-11-6" id="en-KJV-30179"> </span><br />
<span class="text Heb-11-6" id="en-KJV-30179">So let's put away the doubting Thomas of our minds, and put Christ back on the throne of our hearts and minds where he belongs. Expect great things from God attempt great things for God. William </span><br />

<span class="text Heb-11-6" id="en-KJV-30179"><br /></span>
<span class="text Heb-11-6" id="en-KJV-30179">So I had first come on this blog to share some pictures from our autumn experiences, but I guess God had some other plans :)</span><br />
<span class="text Heb-11-6" id="en-KJV-30179">Ok, I suppose I will share those pictures after all, be warned their are a lot of pictures. My mother suggests I share the pictures in several different blog posts. Wise woman! The first set of pictures date all the way back to Labor Day Weekend. We took a family trip to Cooperstown Family Bible Camp. Though we were minus Matt and Rachel (and the older boys who are out on their own) I am learning that you must embrace new normal's and enjoy what God has given you. There is always something you could wish for or long after, but God has put us each in the perfect situation for us as an individual and until we are content with just that, we will never live up to the potential that God has in store for us. </span><br />

So thankful for the foresight of those before us who were willing to plant apple trees. Just think, they might not have even enjoyed the fruit of these trees that they had planted so many years ago. What a good picture for us. We are given the command to spread the good news of the gospel. So we faithfully hand out tracts, find creative ways to witness to co-workers, memorize scriptures that will help us have an answer when we are asked, pray for opportunities to share Christ, and then give God all the glory when we see souls saved. Yet there are many times that we don't see the fruit of our labour. Are we going to throw in the towel, and say "What's the use of all this work?". Please don't!! </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Galatians 6:9 says </span><span class="text Gal-6-9" id="en-KJV-29198"><span style="font-size: large;">And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. It is God who gives the increase so leave success up to God and keep on being faithful, you will not be disappointed in the long run. We all want to hear Christ say to us, Well done thou good and faithful servant. So how to we start being faithful? It's a choice that you must make every day, and it's starts in laying aside your will and letting Christ rule in your life. Christ being Lord of your life will show itself in the small things...Having a cheerful attitude when you are sick, giving up your idea of what you want to play when with siblings, a kind word vs a unkind word, being quick to forgive, spending time in God's word and loving it (!!), ultimately having a true genuine love for Christ and others!! Your love for Jesus will compel you to share Christ with others.So how is your love life today with Jesus? Are you being a faithful spreader of the gospel? Wow!! I really needed to hear this today...maybe you read this and are discouraged because you figure you will never get witnessing down...call unto Christ and he will answer you and show you great and mighty things which you don't even know!! </span><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">Caleb got this grand idea to put the applesauce maker on the very edge of the picnic table. Typically we put the maker in the center of the table and we only have a flat plastic container the sauce drains into, and someone has to take the sauce and transfer it into a large plastic bowl to be sweetened. As you can see with the maker on the edge of the table the sauce drains into a large plastic bowl. Yes!! one step was eliminated in our applesauce process. We are always looking for ways to save time...and yet with all the years that we have been making applesauce none of us had ever thought of this idea!!</span></td></tr>

She will be gone for three months helping teach character classes in the public schools. In the afternoons their team will also teach Bible clubs. I am sure that she would covet your prayers!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">One thing that we always enjoy doing in the fall is helping at the Country Corn Maze. Since Rachel was going to miss out on doing that this year, we were able to go the Corn Maze on opening day, and make some memories together. Then Dad, Mom, Jo and Esther brought Rachel down to the cities to hop on a plane for Oklahoma City.</span><br />

What is it that we do, that makes life meaningful, worthwhile? The Bible talks a lot about time. Ephesians 5:16 is a great one on that. "Redeeming the time because the days are evil." Redeem means to ransom or to buy...And just how do you do that with time? God gives us all kinds of opportunities in life. Do we choose to have a good attitude, to respond cheerfully, to have a slow answer to wrath, joy in the midst of sorrow, trust instead of fear...the opportunities in life are endless and numerous. I would encourage you to take that next opportunity that God sends your way and redeem that moment for Christ. One choice at a time choose Christ.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This summer for us has been a memory building one, and we would like to share just a few of the last few highlights with you!! Our family again had the privilege to be part of the
Bible Bee. Across the nation hundreds of children spent at least part of
their summer memorizing God's Word, and studying the first three
chapters in Genesis. My Dad hosted a local bee , and it was encouraging
to get together a couple times over the summer...we also made some new
friends, which was a plus :):) Our last meeting was at our house...</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">We woke up one morning to find that a wasp nest had formed in one of our flowering crab trees overnight...that was fast and unexpected. How often do we go through life and let little things creep into our lives, thinking that we can handle it or that it really does not matter. A sharp tone of voice, skipping devotions just once, letting others cover your work now and then, stretching the truth ever so slightly...you know yourself what it is that you let creep into your life! <span class="text Gal-5-9" id="en-KJV-29172"><sup class="versenum">9 </sup>A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump. Galatians 5:9 Don't let Satan decieve you and make you buy into the lie, " oh, that sin is really not that bad"!! Why did Jesus have to die?? It was because of SIN!! If we don't take care of this little wasp nest it <b>will </b>grow bigger, no doubt about it!! Another interesting thing that I learn from this, is that the wasp nest will hurt others if I don't get rid of it. When we let sin grow in our lives, it not only hurts us, but it hurts others as well. Don't think that you can waste time, yell at others, think bad thoughts, boast and dominate conversation ect. and others won't be affected. Today if you are one of those who is compromising and letting sin in your life, cry out to God to forgive you and to start out anew. "If we confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. I John 1:9 Praise Jesus we find forgiveness at the foot of the cross. </span></span><br />

A time to work hard, play hard, sleep hard, and all the while making memories with family and touching other peoples lives for Christ!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">July is a busy birthday month for us...I remember ten years ago when I was turning 13...Mommy was having quite a few false labor alarms, making her pretty tired. The night of my birthday we celebrated and then my sister and I slept downstairs. I woke up the next morning to my daddy gently shaking me and telling me that Mommy was going to have her baby now, and we needed to get up to go to Grandma's house!! I asked Dad "Is this for real now?" and he said "Yes!!" Several hours later Esther was born.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Esther is still my favorite birthday gift!!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">How do you spend your summer days? We could not hope to tell all the things that happen in our summer. What really matters is, if we are drawing closer to Jesus and sharing the love of Christ with others. Our lives are compared to the life of a flower. What a short life span a flower has, and yet our lives in comparison to eternity is also very short! What will you do with your life? Turning twenty three this year caused me to do a lot of thinking. Am I doing what I want to do? More importantly, am I doing what Christ wants me to do?</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">On Dad's birthday we opened a few gifts before we had some people over for cheese cake. JoAnna has gotten quite famous for wrapping her gifts in many layers of paper and lots of tape!! This particular gift took about 1 and 1/2 hours to wrap, due to the fact the she used newspapers as wrapping paper! If you have an extra minute please share a scripture to bless my Dad!! </span><br />

She would let Grandpa hold her and play with her, she was all smiles with him. I think God let Rachel enjoy her time with Grandpa, because just a year later Grandpa passed away quite unexpectedly!</span></td></tr>

<span style="font-size: large;">In this life it is easy to get so busy, caught up with all that God has for us to do...but do we remember God? Take time today to praise God for who he is. Take a walk outside and enjoy his creation. Find time to spend alone with God and pour out your heart to him. The Great God loves to hear YOU talk to HIM!! You will find yourself refreshed and energized, really ready to tackle whatever God has for you to do! God has designed us with spiritual bodies too, ones that need to be fed from God's Word and ones that need time spent with God alone. I know that you have a big to do list...we all have those. But don't let that list become more important then time spent with the Lord and with family. Cherish the moment of today.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />Be still, and know that I <i>am</i> God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.</span><span class="p"> Psalm 46:10</span><br />

Equally so should we celebrate the fathers in our lives...God never makes mistakes. God knew that when he made a family that it needed a Daddy and a Mommy. Sadly the world is going far away from the design that God has for family! </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Enthusiastic</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Reverent</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Mom...three small letters, and yet they hold a treasure chest of meaning to a family. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Nurse, seamstress, gentle teacher, cook, housekeeper, adventurer, gardener, organizer, researcher, advocate, holding a PHD in child rearing... truly the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world. It is hard to wrap the mind around the large job that a mother holds...24-7! </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The Bible has much to say about women. Here are just a few a verses.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span class="text 1Pet-3-4" id="en-KJV-30429"><sup class="versenum">4 </sup>But
let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not
corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in
the sight of God of great price. I Peter 3:4</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span class="text 1Tim-3-11" id="en-KJV-29743"><sup class="versenum">11 </sup>Even so must their wives be grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things. 1 Timothy 3:11</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span class="text 1Tim-3-11" id="en-KJV-29743"></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span class="text Prov-11-16" id="en-KJV-16705"><sup class="versenum">16 </sup>A gracious woman retaineth honour: and strong men retain riches. Proverbs 11:16</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span class="text Prov-14-1" id="en-KJV-16774"><span class="chapternum">14 </span>Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands. Proverbs 14:1</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span class="text 1Tim-3-11" id="en-KJV-29743"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span class="text 1Tim-3-11" id="en-KJV-29743">There once was a man and a woman. They got married. This couple decided to let God decide the amount of children that they would have. As the children started to come, the parents gave up time, money, sleep! The children brought along a lot of struggles, pain, and sorrow; they also brought along, joy, opportunities, and adventures. This couple also decided to blaze a new trail, and home school their children. As the years continued to roll by, their love for God and each other only continued to grow not diminish. Their children would see them reading God's Word and would see the value of the Scriptures. In times when money was tight, they faithfully leaned on God. Opportunities for service to others came and were embraced as gifts from God. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span class="text 1Tim-3-11" id="en-KJV-29743">I can't say enough how much I value, appreciate, and honor my parents. They would be the first to say they are far from perfect, that they are a work in progress.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span class="text 1Tim-3-11" id="en-KJV-29743"><b> But he that hath begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of judgement. </b> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span class="text 1Tim-3-11" id="en-KJV-29743">Mom has been right by Daddy's side every step of the journey that God has placed them on. What a blessing she is to our family. Please let us know in a comment how she has touched your life.</span></span><br />
