Trampolines

This past Saturday, we went to our cousin's birthday party. There were so many trampolines to jump on, places to run around and a big pit full of noodles to jump into! Here are a few pictures of our fun.

Choices

"And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her, and he did eat." Genesis 3:6


As we think about the fall of man and the story of Adam and Eve eating of the tree of life, we must remember that it was a choice that they made to eat of the fruit. Even though they were tempted and told that it was okay to do this, they still made a choice to go through with it. 


Our world was not made to be full of bad things. God created this place to be full of life and good things. To be a place to live and love one another and God. But because of one's choice, others have been hurt and  affected. 


As you reflect on the anniversary of 9/11, what type of choices are you going to make? Are you going to portray the attitude of hatred towards the ones involved or are you going to make the choice to do as God commands and love they neighbor? 


I pray that you make a conscience decision to have a loving and forgiving heart. I pray that you will think twice before you act as you never know how many people will be affected and for how long the hurt and pain will last. I challenge you to not just pray for our military and those we love who are fighting to turn things around, but also those who are choosing to make the bad decisions. That their hearts be affected by the love of God and choose to stop the violence and turn to God for guidance and live a Christian life.
