Itty Bitty Seeds....

I just got a message from a dear friend of ours from NOBTS who is serving as a NAMB missionary in Nevada. He and his wife are starting a church in a Volunteer Fire Department. Last night they had their first service which they had 12 in attendance!! He asked for prayer for a particular young man who came to their first service last night, but left before it began. While reading his message a childrens song that we used to sing at the Seminary daycare came to mind....it's below......

The Word of God is like
Itty Bitty Seeds - scattered all around,

The Word of God is like Itty Bitty Seeds - scattered all around
there's some in the road, some in the weed,
everywhere you look you see itty bitty seeds.

The Word of God is like BIG HONKIN TREES - scattered all around,

The Word of God is like BIG HONKIN TREES - scattered all around,
there's some in the road, some in the weed,
everywhere you look you see BIG HONKIN TREES


All that to say -- we just have to scatter the
itty bitty seeds, and God will grow the BIG HONKIN TREES!!!

I'm Back - I hope....

Well, I started our blog a while back, but with things have gotten so busy, that I just seem to have let my blog slip. Anyway, I'm back!! I hope to post often...not going to commit to everyday, but often!!

Update on the family. We are still living in Notasulga, Alabama serving at Salem Macon Baptist Church. The kids are doing great - Benjamin (8) is in 3rd grade, Bailey (5) is in Kindergarten, Brody (3) attends 4 year old preschool, Bowman (2 in 8 days!!!) and Beckah (6 1/2 months). We have a very busy life, but don't ever seem to get out of the house or yard!!!
