Greetings from the south!
Greetings All,
There are many things that I enjoy about the South but certainly one of the best things is the food. So far I have enjoyed such goodies as turtle pumpkin pie, fried okra, chicken casserole, orange cake, the best BBQ I have ever had, and many other delicious goodies as well.
E has traveled so well. He is slightly tired of being kissed on and held by different people but is in good spirits. We are so blessed to have such a smiley and content baby!
Tomorrow night many of the family down here will be going to Fuji's for sushi and the hibachi grilled food. This is espeically fun for K and I since Fuji's is where we held our wedding reception. Well, traveling has worn us all out - time to hit the hay!
God's Grace,
~L, K, and E
P.S. As you can see from the pictures E's favorite part about presents is the wrapping paper!

God is still God!
My heart is heavy this morning. Not because of the outcome of the election, but because as I listen to Christian radio, see many Christian’s blog postings, and talk to fellow believers many are acting as if all is lost.
Somewhere along the line Jesus and Uncle Sam became the same person to many American believers. Somewhere along the line too many Christian’s hope was placed in the god of America instead of the God of the Bible. Somewhere along the line the Gospel became not a message of Christ crucified and risen for me but a message of social change.
What a comfort and joy to know that God is still God! What a comfort and joy to know that God can use anyone to accomplish what He desires. What a comfort as Christians to know that we don‘t have to fear the future or have anxiety about our country. Because of Jesus’ sacrifice for us on Calvary we can rejoice in our “present troubles” knowing that they are only temporary and that soon we will see Jesus face to face!
Remember Jesus’ call to pray for all people, to love them, to serve them, and to share the “Hope that we have" with them!
Marantha! Come Lord Jesus!
