What a joy it was to see my son and daughter-in-law and their new son, Matthew, walk into church yesterday. Both Chet and Phyllis just glowed! I know that people may be tired of hearing about my new grandson, but we can not help but rejoice about this wonderful gift God has given to them (and to us).
And Matthew seems to have taken a liking to his grampa! Of course, grampa doesn't like that!! My husband's eyes light up when Matthew reaches for him. Matthew adds sunshine to our lives, just as grandchildren do--each one of them!!
I am looking forward to seeing what God does in our lives in 2009. We already have some wonderful opportunities. Here are some of the things God is leading us to do this year in the Wonderfully Made ministry:
Visit and encourage new prospects for our Sunday School Class (for teens and adults).
Plan a quarterly activity for Wonderfully Made.
Start a group for young mothers who have a child with special needs--meeting at our home once a month.
I am also looking forward to speaking at the Voice of Care conference in February. This is a wonderful opportunity.
We need prayer. We aren't as young as we use to be and each thing we do seems to take double the effort. God is able to give us all we need. Jesus could come for His bride at any moment. We need to be reaching people for Him!!!
