"You are as much serving God in looking after your own children, and training them up in God's fear, and minding the house, and making your household a church for God, as you would be if you had been called to lead an army to battle for the Lord of hosts."
~Charles Spurgeon

Ben Boy

Since late January early February of this year, we've been watching our little nephew, Ben Boy, three days out of the week.

Ben Boy is such a chunky little man.  Sunshine calls him "Fat Ties" (she's actually saying Fat Thighs).  Ben Boy is fun to have around. The kids just adore him!  Although, I do have to admit, it was and still is a difficult transition from having three of my own kids then adding an infant (now toddler).  God has been using this time to sanctify all of us, especially me.  I'm so thankful that we're able to be part of Ben's life in this way. Here are a few pics of little "Jamin" (we have lots of nick names for all the kids).

Psalm 116: 1-9

I love the LORD, for he heard my voice;
he heard my cry for mercy.

Because he turned his ear to me,
I will call on him as long as I live.

The cords of death entangled me,
the anguish of the grave came upon me;
I was overcome by trouble and sorrow.

Then I called on the name of the LORD :
"O LORD, save me!"

The LORD is gracious and righteous;
our God is full of compassion.

The LORD protects the simplehearted;
when I was in great need, he saved me.

Be at rest once more, O my soul,
for the LORD has been good to you.

For you, O LORD, have delivered my soul from death,
my eyes from tears,
my feet from stumbling,

that I may walk before the LORD
in the land of the living.
