On Sunday, we were having a special coffee before church to send off one of our members who is headed to the Middle East. Jon was standing off to the side and one of the little girls ran up to him, looked at him with big eyes, and ran back to her father. She then whispered very loudly, “Daddy! There’s God!!!!!!”
Jon is not going to live this down anytime soon. 😀
Jon and I are headed to Seattle in mid-November to see family. My mom just informed me that she and my dad, my brother, and his girlfriend are going to fly up for two days while we’re there so that we can have an early Thanksgiving.
I am shedding tears of joy right now…
I’m redoing my domain site and I’m asking if all y’all could send me questions you think should be answered when one does a page on their faith. Just use the contact form that you get by clicking “Contact” on the lefthand sidebar.
Thanks!
Happy Thanksgiving to all my Canadian readers and sites on my sidebar. May you rejoice in your many blessings and have a wonderful time with friends and family.
“Hope… means… a continual looking forward to the eternal world… It does not mean that we are to leave the present world as it is. If you read history you will find that the Christians who did the most for the present world were just those who thought most of the next… It is since Christians have largely ceased to think of the other world that they have become so ineffective in this. Aim at Heaven and you will get earth ‘thrown in’: aim at earth and you will get neither.”

Michigan won.
Washington won! (Finally.)
Washington State lost!
Ohio lost! (Sorry Dawn)
Oklahoma shut out Texas. (Guess they *did* mess with Texas, eh Mike and Kristen?)
The lovely people at JibJab have another cartoon out. It’s not as good as their “This Land Is Your Land” parody, but it’s not bad.
