I have to keep in mind who God is. He is good and kind. He is our strength and our hope. He is in control. Nothing ever catches Him off guard. He is the answer and He is the healer.
This morning we walked in the ALS walk. It was a great experience. My friend's Dad had so wanted to live to be at the walk. God had a different plan for him. This man lived a life that glorified Christ. His daughter, my friend, sings in the church choir and she always sings with such joy. I love to watch her sing. I know this has been a hard year for her but I know her strength is in the Lord.
Life is hard! But God is good! Read the scripture on Steve's back. I needed to hear that verse this week. God's timing is perfect. These were our shirts today for the walk.

That mascot scares me, too! Oh my!
Ella Grace has that same dress Sarah Kate is wearing. I think our girls have the same wardrobe...Gymboree!
Evan loves gum too and calls it "candy gum."
I love cafeteria food, too. When I was pregnant I couldn't get enough of cafeteria dressing. It grossed Derek out. I think I could still love it. ha!!! I even liked some things at Walt's like his turkey cutlets. hee hee hee
And that thing (what IS it, anyways?) would have scared me too!
I attend Andy Stanley's church in Alpharetta, GA. His sermon last week was called Pivitol Circumstances. One of the best sermons I have ever heard!! It talks about exactly what has happened in your life in the past week. You can go to www.northpoint.org and listen to it...click on messages and then 5 Things God Uses to Grow Our Faith. It is the last sermon in the series. It helped me soooo much and I gave it to a friend of mine who lost his 19 year old daughter to cancer almost a year ago. I am always very careful before I tell someone to listen to a sermon, but I really think this would minister to you.
Blessings,

Poor Emily, she looked terrified of Sasquatch.
