We just got back from our first test this semester. It was for Romans class, from chapter 1 - 3:20, where Paul argues that ALL mankind is condemned whether "heathen", moralist or Jew, we are all condemned.
Praise God that Jesus has paid all that we could never have paid!!!
Today in Chapel, our speaker shared from Matthew 11:27-30. What a privelege it is to be a Christian and to be conformed to the image of His Son through getting to know Him. The context of this section is on getting to know God and Jesus says that we will learn from Him. When we take His yoke upon us He will teach us, just as a mature oxen teaches the young oxen as they plow a field. The mature oxen leads and does all the work until the young one learns. Isn't it GREAT that we can and do learn from Jesus, through His Word!!!!
We thank every for thinking of us and praying for us as we, by faith, follow God's plan for using us in this fallen world.
We can't wait to hear from you and to hear what God is doing in your life.
Please continue to pray for our kids as they have started school again and will have a busy schedule again. Tori is planning on play soccer with her school and we are hoping to get Chloe and Ellie back into Saturday morning gymnastics class.
Wednesday, September 5
