I think it hit me….

I have really grown to love this little place in the country that we have made home. I love every inch of this house, it’s not much in the eyes of others, but in my eyes it’s priceless. 2.5 years ago I began to pray for a house, and the Lord has answered my prayers in every little detail through this place, to me it is one of the most amazing blessings. I think of all the memories, all the friends and family we have been able to love on in and through these walls, there is my sister Jen, probably my most fondest memories of them all. God did amazing things in her time here, in her and in us. All the bonfires, at times we have had up to 50 people gathered together around that fire, my very favorite times though are the times when it was just a few of us lifting our hearts to the Lord in song. All the many meals we have shared under this roof, and I will cherish each and every one of them. It’s crazy , it feels as though I have waited forever for this place, and now I have to leave it so soon. So far every season has been better then the one before it, so I can only imagine what awaits us in Colorado. God has family every where after all, I’ll just have to make new memories as we meet and get to know more of our family.
Tears of sadness and tears of Joy.

Matthew 3:8
"Bear fruit in keeping with repentance. And do not presume to say to yourselves, ' we have Abraham as our father,' for I tell you, God is able from these stones to raise up children for Abraham. Even now the axe is being laid to the root of the trees. Every tree therefore that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire."

What a wonderful gift - the memories you have from that house.
God is generous in big and small ways. Look forward to your stories from Colorado.

Chanda! I found a link to you from Amy’s blog tonight. How great to sit here and read of God’s faithfulness and provision for you over the past many months. What an adventure life is with Him. Love it!
