A Birthday Celebration!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOHNSON!!!!

Today we are celebrating a VERY SPECIAL day!!! Johnson is a ADORABLE child that we sponsor through Compassion International and we are going all out to celebrate his 6th Birthday! We love our sponsor relationship with him...exchanging letters, praying, learning more about Kenya! It has been a wonderful experience for Bryan and I.
But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen. ~2 Peter 3:18

We encourage you to consider sponsoring a child through Compassion International or to consider making a one time donation to one of their programs. Visit Compassion for more information.

Sanctuary

I'm linking up with Lauren for To love Their Husbands Tuesdays finally!

Every Sunday night Bryan and I read out of a devotional book called "Devotions for a Sacred Marriage".  This past Sunday night when he finished reading Bryan put down the book and said "That was beautiful". The topic? Being a sanctuary for our spouse...
"There are those who will tear us down, assume we have evil motivations, be inclined to think the worst of us and even misrepresent us to others. They will gossip, slander and ridicule. But God has given us a mate, a shelter in the storm, who knows us better then anyone. When that mate loves us, adores us, and respects us, what it does to our souls is without question one of the most gratifying experiences in all of human existences. It is a powerful, powerful ministry to honor and adore your spouse, to become his or her sanctuary in a world that often seems predisposed to hate, to wound, to hurt, and to tear down........I would face all the demons in hell to defend her (wife). She has been my sanctuary- and I will adore her for all of eternity."
 ~Gary Thomas
So....this week I am devoting myself to the JOY of being my husband's sanctuary. Do I given him 100% of my attention when he is expressing concern, fear, joy, or love to me? Do I reassure him of my love? of God's love?
