Unforgettable Bouquet

Today all five of my boys came in holding their hands behind their backs. Each son handed me a different colored flower, hugged me, and told me, "I love you, Mom!" Then my wonderful husband ended the line with tears in his eyes to match mine, he hugged me, and professed his love for me as well. How blessed am I! What a sweet gift today from my family!

Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her

Proverbs 31:28

PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE READING ANY POSTS.

DISCLAIMER INCLUDED...

We are a family who loves Jesus. We have followed him to the faraway land of Ghana, West Africa. We know He led us here for His purpose - for His name to be great among the nations. (Psalm 46:10) We are here for His glory alone.

By sharing a glimpse into our lives through our posts we give this permanent disclaimer: Nothing written here is to exalt ourselves. We desire for everything we do, say, think, write, or share to be for God's glory alone. We know this life is not about us, and do not ever wish to make it so. We are not trying to share our "experience." We are not trying to pose for pictures. We are not trying to make you think we are doing something we are not. We are broken, imperfect people made complete through the grace of Christ. There is nothing special about us - except the Lord we follow. We want all glory, honor, and praise to go to whom it is due - Jesus.

Sometimes we may write things that are hard to read. It's not our purpose to offend anyone or impose guilt. Life in Ghana is vastly different from life in America. Sometimes when you read about the struggles of your fellow brother, we hope you are propelled to pray. This blog is our avenue to share how God is revealing more of His heart to us. In the process, God allows us to see deeper into our own. It gets ugly sometimes. We are humbled that He has allowed us to be hands and feet of His work. For this, we rejoice in God's boundless grace.

If you accept the terms of this blog - please feel free to read and enjoy. It's not about us.

"But as for me, God forbid that I should boast about anything except for the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. The world has been crucified to me through him, and I have been crucified to the world." - Galatians 6:14
