December 31, 2012

The last day of the year. Makes me ponder and reminisce about the previous 12 months.

We knew one year ago that we would be returning to the States in June.
We knew one year ago that Renee would be graduating from Belair in June.
We knew one year ago that Ryan would probably have his A/G credentials in 2012.
We knew that he would be in ministry in Boston, MA.
We knew one year ago that Denny would be a guest missions professor at VFCC.
We knew that we had a lot of work to do on our Missions budget and expected to have lots of time to do it!
We had no idea that Costa Rica was in our new year future.
One year ago today we had no idea the twists and turns that 2012 would make, but here we are at the end of the year and so excited about the way the year ends!

Renee is starting her second semester of VFCC.
Ryan is in the ground level of a new church plant in Boston, called Anchor Church.
We are on our way to Costa Rica, a position we never dreamed of having.

I am asking God to keep our family secure, our marriage tight, our ministry beyond anything we could have ever imagined. I am asking God to bless my friends with increase, and that their lives will have an indelible touch of Jesus' presence. I am asking Him to turn our world around, that more than ever people will believe again. I am asking Him to turn despondency to hope, depression to joy, and despair to wonderment. I am asking God to put water into our dry wells and fruit on barren trees.
