I Have Kept to His Way

But he knows the way that I take; when he has tested me, I will come forth as gold. My feet have closely followed his steps; I have kept to his way without turning aside — Job 23:10-11


I haven't actually kept to God's way.

Even so, He knows the way that I take.

And His hand guides me, catching me when I veer off the course He has planned for me.

My feet have closely followed His steps some of the time.

Occasionally I have kept to God's way.

But I am guilty of turning aside more often than I care to admit.

In spite of my errant footsteps, He loves and cares for me.

Thank You, Lord!

He Knows the Way I Take

Welcome, March!

Last night we had choir in person.

Socially distanced and wearing masks.

Really fun to be back singing together.

Working on music for Good Friday and Easter.

On Saturday we will sing for our service for the first time in about a year.

And Abby will get her first vaccine this week.

Praise God for His goodness.

He cares for us in many ways.

God knows the way that we take.

We are grateful.

Jesus, Our Cornerstone

So this is what the Sovereign Lord says: “See, I lay a stone in Zion, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone for a sure foundation; the one who relies on it will never be stricken with panic. — Isaiah 28:16

Rita, Kelly, Gary, Liz, Carol, Kirk Christmas Season 2009
This week we celebrate the life and legacy of our dad, Gary.

Next week will be anniversary of Mom Rita's death.

We are sad and miss them lots.

At the same time, we have wonderful memories and happy family moments with both of them.

We created this slideshow to be able share some of those memories with our family members and friends.

God has laid a precious cornerstone to give us a sure foundation in Jesus.

Even when we are sad and grieving, this foundation is our rock.

We will not be stricken with panic or desperation with Christ as our cornerstone.

Instead, we rejoice that Mom Rita and Dad Gary are in heaven with Jesus.

One day we will join them there.
