At the cookout, my grandson and his Mommy came too. And I took just a few snapshots of him. He just dont stay still long enough.But he is growing, and he is so sweet!

He kept saying “OMA” (German for Grandma) he kept telling me “I love you Oma” and when he left he said “Byebye Oma” He blew me lots of kisses when he sat in his carseat going back home.

I am so glad to have him in my life!!!

 

Here are a few pics of him

What a great Cookout it was

August 11, 2008 at 7:55 am (Bible, Biblestudy, Carepages.com, Faith, Father God, Friends, GI-tract, GLory, God, Grace, HPS, Hymns, Jesus Christ, King of kings, Lord, Mercy, Physicians, Prayer, Presbyterian, Religion, Salvation, Wintley Phipps, armed forces, atheism, atheist, book, books, child support, christian living, christianity, cities, court, deadbeat dads, devotionals, diets, discernment, discipleship, end times, eternity, evangelism, fellowship, forgiveness, free books, free cd's, free dvd's, grandkids, holy bible, homestead, law, lawyer, military, ministry, peace, pentecost, prayer, thoughts, faith, friends, reading, research, saints, sanctification, scams, schemes, scripture, sleeping, spirituality, toddlers, tribulations, walk with god, weightloss)

Last Saturday we had the cookout at our home and at first not many replied, but at the end lots of friends and family from Church did show. We had plenty to eat and it was very nice get-together.

My heart was singing when I got the last few RSVP’s and when I saw all the people arriving!
Trish & Doug brought us three pots with flowers, and these flowers are just simply gorgeous. Freddy brought a 14-piece Glas cookware set. I always wanted a set but I just never bought one. So it all was gretaly appreciated even though they didnt need to bring anything but themselves.

I loved every moment of that day.

 

 

 

 Of course I cleaned house the day prior and have to admit my hubby helped me a lot. Than the day of the cookout I got up early and went shopping. Came home and started slicing and dicing. Setting up the table. And at 4 o’clock pm we had already two friends with us. One is a friend I know for a long time, and one is my friend Jen. I was amazed that Jen showed up so early to help me.

We had enough space for all the cars to park and enough food to have had at least another 20 people. I just cant plan small. Even when I cook dinner for my husband and I, there are so much leftovers that I could easily feed another family.  bad thing is, my hubby has to eat leftovers for a week.
 

 

 Of course at the cookout David & Jen asked my husband to join us at worship the next day, and my husbands reply was ” I will think about it”
Well when I got back from Church my hubby was still asleep in the recliner “thinking about it”. But we wont give up, we will keep on working and keep on praying, and in due time he will join us I am sure!

Than on Sunday I went to Church and that’s when I realised how much I really missed going to Church. But right now my new job schedule makes it very difficult to go to worship. But I am sure soon my shift will change and I can attend regularly.

And of course David preached so eloquently about Moses. And it hit home, he spoke to my heart. It was about that we should not cling to things here on earth like a new home, car, money, even your children or spouses, but fix your eyes on Jesus. You might lose your home, car, money, even your spouse, even your children might leave you when they grown (aint that the truth), but God’s love will always be with you.

The Creator of the universe, the Creator of Life and Love, will never leave you!

He will be with you long after all the things here on earth have parished, He will NEVER leave you nor Forsake you!

So be careful how you value things of this short Life here on earth and how you value your Savior! It doesnt matter where you come from, it doesnt matter what you have or dont have, it matters where you going!

Love to all
Andrea
