A Delightful Surprise!

There's nothing more refreshing and delightfully, surprising than to find two very dear friends at your back door! This was the case yesterday and we were thrilled to see Uncle Daniel once again! To top it off, there standing beside him was Auntie Cheryl, who we had not seen in a long time!!:)

Auntie Cheryl:)

The joy of godly fellowship:)

Visiting....

One of the things that amazed me about the visit was how perfect the Lord's timing is! Mama and I have been really learning to trust the Lord. (This has been a major lesson especially for me!) Even when certain situations seem hopeless or we just don't understand, we need to continue to trust the Lord through it all! This same lesson was exactly what Auntie Cheryl and Uncle Daniel were experiencing back in Washington and the way we were able to relate so well was simply hilarious!:)

One thing we always do on our visits with Uncle Daniel is read scripture, share what the Lord has been teaching us lately, and finally, pray together: Presenting our requests to the Lord and asking for the direction and grace to do what He gives us to do! (This is indeed true fellowship! Realizing that what draws us together as believers is the Lord in each other!!:) This is the attraction and bond we should share!:)

Of course, being named after him, Daniel always gets a special picture with Uncle Daniel!!:)Ryan and Uncle Daniel:)

As Auntie Cheryl said," My friend, My sister!"Uncle Daniel, myself and Auntie Cheryl

Still visiting...

Mama, Uncle Daniel and Auntie Cheryl:)

It was such a special time of encouragement and fellowship! I hope that we can experience more visits just like this one: centered on Christ!!:)

"Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! It is like the precious ointment upon the head, running down his beard, the beard of Aaron, running down on the edge of his garments. It is like the dew of Hermon, descending upon the mountains of Zion; for there the Lord commanded the blessing-life forevermore."

Psalm 133
