Easter with Family

easter-with-daddyIt’s not often that we get to be with family on Easter. We’ve been blessed to have services each year on this special day! This year, however, my Daddy came to spend Easter with us. Well, not exactly, he came for opening Turkey season in Colorado and New Mexico, but nevertheless, we had the benefit of spending Easter with him! My Mama doesn’t travel well, so, she wasn’t able to be with us and for that, we are sad. We were able to see 3 people saved on Sunday. Two of them were a couple and have been attending faithfully along with some discipleship lessons and will be baptized this coming Sunday. Praise the Lord for fruit, but PRAISE THE LORD for remaining fruit.

Mesa

img_0041Who is Mesa? She’s our, now, 2 year old Pitt Bull ‘puppy’ that weighs about 65lbs. We purchased Mesa in Farmington, NM that is surrounded by mesa’s. (A ‘mesa’ is a flat-topped mountain) We wanted to name her something relative to the area where we purchased her, hence, Mesa! She is technically a Staffordshire Terrier which is a Pitt. Mesa was 4lbs and only 4 weeks old when we got her. She’s been professionally trained and has silent hand signals that command her to sit, down and come. Most importantly, she is off-leash trained. We really do love her as she’s been a training ground for us. You might find it interesting that the trainer taught us to give commands only once. We are still working on this, but we’ve discovered that, like teaching children, we must be clear in the commands we give. I’ll write more on Mesa later, but I thought you’d like to know who the dog was in our family picture!

Children

After writing the post on Travelling, I thought that I would address all of the frequently asked questions, and another one of those is “Do you have Children?”. The quick answer is “Not yet”, but our hearts answer is “The Lord hasn’t given them to us yet.” Which means, we are still praying that the Lord would give us children, but He hasn’t yet. Many well-meaning people often feel they ought to console us by saying, “Well, it would be hard to travel with children” or “You couldn’t do the work you are doing if you had children.” But the reality is, we would LOVE to have children and the Lord would equip us to do what He wants us to do with what He gives. I am thankful, beyond all imagination, what the Lord has taught me these 11.5 years of marriage. I have grown Spiritually and Mentally and know the Lord will give me exactly what I need when I need it. So, feel free to pray with us regarding the matter of children. And feel free to let us know you are praying. It is a blessing and encouragement.
