All Things New...

"And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make ALL THINGS NEW. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful." ~Revelation 21:5

Well, Lindsay and I agree that it's about time to start back up our quiet time blogs. And I'm so happy about it, because I've missed it and the LORD is doing some amazing things. We'll be picking a book of the bible to study and blogging our thoughts, prayers, and insights.

But, until then, I just want to give glory to God for all the amazing new things He has done and is doing in our lives.

This summer was a time of huge transition and blessing for our family. We moved into a larger and more beautiful house on campus (5 bdrms...PRAISE GOD!!), Bart started his masters' program, we welcomed our baby boy, Sellick Joel, and Belle started kindergarten...just to name a few things.

Sooo...it's a perfect time to restart this blog. As the verse above says, He makes all things new...and directly after that the hearer is instructed to WRITE. I want to write down and remember all that God is doing in our lives, share it with the world, and save it for my children. Just as the Israelites of the old Testament often built altars of rememberance...this will be one of mine. I'm excited to see where He takes us!
