Saying Goodbye...
We had to say a temporary(we'll stay in touch!)goodbye to our friends the Lassetts tonight... They've been serving at my dad's church, but we met serving at our very first church in Indianola,Ms... We had our boys two weeks apart and have really enjoyed watching them grow the past ten months. I know they are sad, but are excited about serving in a new church. We wish them luck and will be praying for their new church and also for the friends they are leaving behind. Good luck GL,JL,CL, and CL.. We're going to miss you! I'll be posting pictures of Cooper and B hangin' out later...

My first blog....
I have to be honest...I'm not sure how good I'm going to be at this, so be patient! I have enjoyed seeing everyone's blogs and have been so inspired to do this myself. I also decided it would be much easier to stay updated with pictures on this blog!
We have had several requests for prayer lately that made me think of this devotional I was emailed a couple of years ago. The author is Dr. Adrian Rogers... I hope it speaks to you as it did to me.

Bible Meditation:
"Casting all your care upon Him; for He careth for you."
1 Peter 5:7
Devotional thought:
What happens when you worry? You bring tomorrow's difficulty into today. God didn't give you grace for tomorrow's difficulties. He only gives you grace for today. When you reach into tomorrow's troubles, you overload today's circuit. Worry doesn't take the sorrow out of tomorrow, it takes the strength out of today. When you meet tomorrow, you're out of breath because you're already overloaded from today. Worry, therefore, does not make you ready for the future, it really makes you unready. Yesterday is just a canceled check. Tomorrow is a promissory note. Today has all the cash you can handle. Spend it wisely.
Action point:
Worry will eat your lunch! It'll eat your breakfast and dinner, too! Confess your worries as sin(because they are). Put your concerns at the throne of Almighty God, trusting Him to provide.
