You Called Us To A Beautiful Place

Dear Lord,
You called us to a beautiful place, full of history and strength and fields of smiling sunflowers.

Help us to listen and hear with our hearts the desires and dreams of our friends. Help this to become a long lasting partnership of trust and truth, like the Old Mountain.

May we be joyful and loving. Use our lives and partnership for Your glory.

Thank you Lord for showing us Your love in yet another way and seeing Your work outside of our daily walk.

Provide us with the answers to the questions that we have long carried on our hearts but have been afraid to say out loud. We have prayed for days of celebration; help us to embrace this time of joyful beginnings.

Open our eyes to opportunity that You have provided. Use our talents and gifts for good.

In Your name we pray,
Amen


Note: We have loved reading your comments and words of encouragement. Knowing you are thinking and praying for us means alot and we appreciate it. Please keep commenting on your visits to our blog. Blogodaria! (thank you!)

Hi Everyone!
Sorry we didn't get to look at the blog sooner, but we have been busy moving Phil & Tracy. We are glad to report that they are all settled in! McKenna is already fast friends with Julia Roberts, and Kiera has found a friend that looks just like her! Jillean just loves the open spaces and running with Jack her dog.
We have prayed for you every day and are glad everything is going well and so inspiring and fun.
I'll will continue to watch the blog now even though we are ready to go to Sun Prairie. YES, Jeff and Colleen had their baby today! He is Liam John Scanlan and weighs 8 lbs & 5 oz., 22" long and has lots of brown hair! Now you know why it was not meant for us to come - between the move and the new baby!
Anyway, God Bless and Keep You Safe - and do the Chicken Dance with your new friends in Russe in celebration of our 1st Grandson! Love, John & Mary Lou
