The Love that Lasts!

“Clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on Love, which binds them all together in perfect unity." ~Colossians 3:12-14



Happy Anniversary Mom & Dad Andrews


As we come upon this Special Day, we cannot thank God enough for you and your marriage. It is truly the Lord's kindness and a wonderful example to all that know you. Your devotion, friendship, and understanding towards each other reflects the way our Lord lavishes His love on us. One specific evidence of grace in your marriage is how you "prefer" each other above any other person. You love to spend time with each other. Though you have very different personalities and interests, you have learned to embrace those differences and discovered there is much Joy (and humor) to be found ! What an example of considering each other more important than yourself. Thank you for your influence in MY husband's life. I'm definitely receiving the "fruits" of your strong example! I pray the Lord continues to pour out His grace and blessing upon your marriage. May your legacy be lived on through your children’s marriages and for generations to come.


We Love You!

Rain, Rain, Come our Way!


For those of you not in Atlanta, you might not be aware of our desperate need for rain. Our drought conditions are the worst in 50 years! Everyday is the same, beautiful weather...but not a raindrop in sight. There's lots of talk about the restrictions and how long the water supply will last. All the concern has caused me to realize how much I take for granted and again reminded how totally dependent we are on the Lord for our every need. Would you join me in prayer in asking the Lord for His mercy to be "showered" upon us by sending the rain...


He has shown kindness by giving you rain from heaven and crops in their seasons; he provides you with plenty of food and fills your heart with joy. ~Acts 14:17

A "Hole-ly" Moment!










God's protection was obvious and evident when we realized that the "hot coals" that were placed in this styrofoam planter burned right through the bottom. Not only did the heat burn out the container but right through the wood on the deck! It simmered for over 20 hours! The Lord is so kind...even in our foolishness...who's foolishness? We'll let you figure that one out for yourself:)

Happy Birthday Dad!

No better day to encourage you Dad...than on your 70th Birthday! As you take time to reflect back on your life, may you see the Lord's faithfulness and kindness echoed throughout the years. I know that's what I see. Even before you knew God, he knew you. He watched over you, protected you and lead you to pleasant places. He blessed you with a devoted wife. He has directed your steps and allowed you to financially provide with a job you love. Faithfully poured out His grace and kindness on your family. He opened your eyes and heart to the Gospel and provided the answer to your greatest need....salvation. He loves you and accepts you as only a Father can. He gives you the strength and the perserverance to continue to run the race everyday. His love and grace is unending.

WE love you Dad, and thank God for this day...the day He started our family story! May you find much joy in Him today and always.

May this encourge you about turning the "Big 7-0"....:)
Gray hair is a crown of splendor; it is attained by a righteous life. ~Proverbs 16-31
