First, I’d like to wish ‘Happy Thanksgiving’ to everyone. “Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His love endures forever.” (Psalms 107:1) ‘To give thanks’ is the simple response of a grateful child. May such an attitude always rule our hearts. “Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with THANKSGIVING, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:4-7)
Next, I’d like to thank Steve Wolf for investing a ton of time and energy in organizing close to ten years of writing. Steve and Julie, who now live in Colorado, are beautiful people and dear friends. By clicking on ‘Dana’s Christian Journey’ you can easily find past writings. Feel free to share with anyone.
Finally, I have some family news to share. Saturday night our daughter, Kinsey, called to say that she said ‘yes’ to a certain question. Jordan Stanley asked her to marry him. He asked me for my daughter’s hand a few weeks ago so we knew the day was approaching. I really like Jordan, but I have to admit the engagement of a daughter is hitting me harder than the engagement of a son. Why should a grown man cry when he thinks of giving away his little girl? (I’m not saying I cried… I’m just asking the question…)
So it looks like we will have two weddings this summer… Taylor & Emma and Kinsey & Jordan. We are all happy and curious about the days ahead. Feel free to send advice and feel free to rejoice with us.
Love,
Dana and Susan
