NO CAMERA NEEDED

Jeremiah took communion for the first time today and the tears just flowed down my face. He accepted Christ as his Savior April 2006. We are attending Strong Tower Bible Church where the children go to service first and worship with their families before being excused to their classes. I love this. I love having praise and worship time with my children. This was the first opportunity for Jeremiah to not be in class and to share this experience with us. My heart sang, jumped, danced, and was overflowed with the fact that my son has a Savior and will one day spend eternity with Him !!!!

Scott always says there is nothing in this world you can take with you to heaven except your children. What gifts they are and how I will rejoice when each one comes to the saving knowledge of Christ. What a glorious day this has been !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh I remember when Karly took her first in was our last Sunday in the old auditorium and I cried also. It is one thing that he died for me but how greatful I am that he died for her.
