Caleb #19 in blue sacking the quarterback

Caleb, had one of the best games ever today! I heard his name called several times while I listened on the internet radio but with about 5 minutes left in the game he received what could be a very serious injury to his knee.They think it is his MCL but won't know for sure until they do an MRI sometime this week.He has it in a very large brace right now and has crutches.He is not in any pain which may mean that the injury is very serious and has damaged the nerve.Please pray for Gods will and his comfort in the next week or so.

Soaking In His Love Through Music

I know that at times of discouragement and pain God often uses gifted men and women to minister to my soul through music. I have spent the last couple of hours doing some billing for my father on the computer just listening to Roberts messages and so many songs.I love that song that Mike Butler introduced us to, on an average Wed night meeting, to the the newsboys version of the song about the African rain.Someone please give me the correct title.That brings me to tears in praise to our God as I cant wait till the day when the church at large will praise God together but it also reminds me that we are already doing that.We watched a missionary video from a family from our church that have given their lives over to one tribe in PNG and it showed the light of Gods Word and how Gods spirit was opening their eyes to the truth of Christ.I included some of my favorite songs in music video format at the bottom of this page.I have also included a list of missionary videos that include the voices of those believers from around the world. We truly do sing "Glory Glory... Hallelujah He reigns" with all believers around the world.

Taylorsville Homecoming Parade

The whole family went to this big celebration in Taylorsville last Sat. The boys were on a float for each of their football teams and Grace was in it with her Dance team.They had a great time with football games and fair food and fun.I will send pictures of them whenever we find our camera cord.

sadness in the cabin

Please pray for us... our dogs Roxy and Daisy have attacked each other for the second time in a month so we are having to have them put to sleep this afternoon.We love them dearly but can not risk this new sign of aggression. Please pray especially for Grace as Roxy was her special dog. We are thankful that God gives us companion animals for our enjoyment and in that enjoyment I believe God is glorified.These are painful times.

Encountering Genesis 2:6 on Wednesday afternoon.

“But a mist used to rise from the earth…”, this was the text that opened up yesterday in of all places a Hebrew class studying the imperfect qal stem of Hebrew verbs. For many people that would seem to be the last place that one would have an existential experience with the Word of God, but it that is what happened for me at around 4:30 pm. In my mind’s eye I beheld that mist rising and it was a wonderful sight to behold. Now I long for the day when I will be able to proclaim to those who will hear that “…a midst used to rise from the earth…” Why do I say that for many that would seem to be the last place they would expect to see such things? Because for them it is to academic. The real issue however is not a matter being academic or non-academic, it is a matter of the sovereign Spirit moving. The wind blows where it wills, so does the Spirit. The Spirit moves through his Word and the academy helps us to at least see how the Spirit has moved the writers to write and thus come to understand His word. In order to feel the Spirit we need to stand where the wind blows.

Robert

Sorry about being slow to add more pictures. Robert had last week off for a reading vacation HAHA .He is back in the thick of it this week.I am taking a couple classes as well and they started back up this morning.So...we have had a busy couple of days.Robert will be posting a message tonight so please come back and check but it will probably be late since we have church tonight and then he will probably come home and do a few hours of Hebrew. We miss everyone in Jacksonville so much! I have good weeks and bad weeks but you all are in my thoughts a lot this week and I long to see you again.We are praying for you ...please pray for us.
