His Hand

May the glory of the Lord continue forever! The Lord takes pleasure in all He has made!

Psalm 104:31

We also take pleasure in what He has made: the earth, the creatures that walk, swim , fly and crawl upon it. He amazes us with His beautiful creations.

Daily we are blessed with the gifts of our children as they are fused together with the works of His hands.

I will sing to the Lord as long as I live. I will praise my God to my last breath!

Psalm 104:33

Join us as lift up our voices in songs of praise to Him for all He has made.

Blessings from afar

Email is wonderful; handwritten cards and letters even sweeter.

Hugs in person....precious.

Tim's mom and dad arrived in Alotau yesterday with hugs from them and hand-delivered hugs from my mom and dad. We feel very blessed.

They will be staying several weeks with us and we look forward to sharing some special times together. Tim's dad will be lending a much needed hand to some center repairs and boat maintenance as well as some technical encouragement for Tim. Karen will be happily entertained with grandchildren who want to read and play games, though I know she too will lend a hand to the needs of the center.

We're thankful for their presence.

Lesson Learned

Lesson # ........
Salt water and camera equipment don't go together.

Our regular camera and video camera both filled with water after a recent dinghy trip. Such a sad lesson. I won't elaborate otherwise I'll lament.
