If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:9
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:16

It's Amazing

We attended a wonderful service tonight at our Church Campgrounds. The same place I've shown a couple pictures of where the girls attend Youth Camp. There is an outdoor tabernacle where we have church. I have been attending there since I was a very little girl. Every year in July they have what we call Campmeeting. Which is a week of services in the outdoor tabernacle. I'll try to take a couple pics tomorrow night and show you. It is very rustic and most times it is very hot. We are in a cooler spell right now so, so far, it hasn't been too bad.

Anyway, they asked hubby and me (mostly I think they wanted him because he has a beautiful tenor voice) to join in and sing with the choir. We didn't get there early enough to practice, but we went up anyway. They sang some really old songs, so we knew them. It was so fun to get up there and just cut loose and sing. It was a blast. And to think I fussed and didn't want to do it. Thanks you guys for making me! hahaha

The speaker did an awesome job. One thing he said really stuck with me. I mean, we all know when we're born again that the Holy Spirit moves in and takes up residence in our heart. But tonight for some reason it just really struck me. We are filled with God, the creator of everything. He moves in and lives inside of us. How awesome is that, God is living in me!!!!!

Wow! How Amazing is that?!? I love it. I am filled up with God. "Lord, please remove me and fill me with more and more of you!! That is my true desire!"

Project 365


Click on the Project 365 and join Sara in the fun! I didn't get mine posted last Sunday, so here are pictures from 2 weeks. And yes, once again, I missed a couple days. But I figure every one that I get is a good thing. And I promise if anyone else wants to join in, Sara does not get upset with us for missing a day here and there. And it's never too late to start. So come join the fun!

Ok, either I did it wrong, or blogger messed up, but my pictures are in reverse order. But here we go anyway!

Saturday- July 4th
- we went to 2 parties, and yet still I didn't take a picture. What is that all about?!?
Sunday - July 3rd - the 4 of us went to Spaghetti Warehouse for lunch and my oh so mature 17 year old did this with her spaghetti and then grabbed my camera and took a picture!!!! lol

Thursday-July 2nd - Didn't get a picture this day. It was the only day I had to work this week. Guess I didn't feel much like take a picture. lol
Wednesday-July 1st - The girls on one of the rides at Cedar Point. Mostly they just rode the rollercoasters, but this was an easy one they rode.
Tuesday - June 30th - Saw lots of cornfields like this driving up to Sandusky from Anderson, Indiana
Monday - June 29th - Space ship house we passed in southwest Ohio on our way to Indiana.
Another view of the spaceship house.

Sunday-June 28th - Whoops, no picture again!
Saturday-June 27th - The girls coming out of the grocery. It's so fun having kids old enough that can go into the grocery and get a few items for you. (Actually it was for them and a youth group fund raiser they were involved in)

Friday-June 26th - There are several kittens that like to stay in our backyard. We don't feed them and I don't actually know who they belong too, but they sure do spend a lot of time in our yard by the shed. My dog wants to get to them so bad, but her chain is just not quite long enough and believe the kittens know it and just love to antagonize her!!

Thursday-June 25 - this is the day my sis and I went shopping and out to lunch and then swimming in her wonderful pool. Just the 2 of us.

Wednesday-June 24th - No picture again. I was too busy enjoying my alone time!!!

Tuesday-June 23rd
- A beautiful sunset from my backyard.
-
Monday-June 22nd - Another picture of the camp where the girls spent the week. Such a beautiful place.

Sunday - June 21st -3 Parachutists with a big American Flag tied to them. They are between the trees. Not a real clear picture, but you can see them.

Independence Day

Happy July 4th Everyone!!!
Our town has it's fireworks on the 3rd instead of the 4th. We always go to one of the high places in town and watch them from there. This is sitting in the parking lot of a Doctor's Office along with a lot of other people. This photo shows a car lot and a shopping center parking lot full of people. Anyway where we were there was a nice grassy slope for people to sit on. Hubby and I just sat in the back of the van. The girls were at a party so it was just hubby and me.

Here are a couple pictures of the fireworks. I'm not very good at taking fireworks pictures, but I tried.


Here's a little video of the fireworks. It's about 3 minutes long.


Hope you all have a great Independence Day !!!

Traveling Fun!

As soon as everyone is ready, we'll be heading up to Sandusky to take the girls to Cedar Point. Hubby says they're calling for a 60% chance of rain. Oh well, we'll just play it by ear and see what happens.

Yesterday, we went to Anderson, IN, where the headquarters for the Church of God is located. This week is the North American Convention of the Church of God. We had a good time. Last night's service was the commissioning of the new missionaries. It was pretty neat to see. I'm glad we had the opportunity to attend. It's been quite a few years since my hubby and I have gone and we've never taken the girls before.

Well I better go help get the car loaded. Have a great day everyone.
