What a blessed time it is to come and visit our family in OKC. The first full day, Sunday, we got to hear our daughter preach the sermon, our son-in-law teach the Sunday School class and then spend the rest of the day with them and their friends. These friends are like family members since we have been coming here for over20 years now. All of them have kids similar in age. It is just a fun time and always very memorable.

Our granddaughter and her new husband have been accepted by their denomination to become missionaries. They will be going on a month long trip this summer. Once Julia graduates from college they will begin to pursue full-time missions. This is all a few years away, but it is so rewarding to see God working so well in the lives of our family.

God is always at work everywhere but I sometimes forget this when I’m so caught up in the work I’m connected to at home. Things become about what I’m doing instead of what God is doing (even though what I’m doing is what I believe God has me doing). Our basic nature is so selfish centered. It is a breath of fresh air I’ve needed to get away and see the refreshing work of Jesus taking place. God is so loving and amazing!
