Embrace the Camera: The Lierz 6 are here!

 

I am able to do more for you
than you could possibly imagine.

Ephesians 3:20



 Yeah!  Yesterday was a fun filled, packed adventure of a day! 
 
We are so happy to have a family here form our home church !!  The Lierz fam of 6 is here to scope out the campus and see with their very own eyes how great this place is. 
 
And, we are making great friends with the new students.  Taylor (above in the Egyptian get up) is a doll.  She and I have the same personality profile.  It was funny the 1st time we hung out while playing catch phrase.  She said the same thing I wanted to say, repeatedly.  They showed up at our door to ask for costumes to do a biblical skit and both are in Ava's costumes!  BOTH.
 
Back to the Lierz family.  They are adorable all 6 of them.  They have 3 little boys under the ago of 6 and a little 10 month old girl.  Now, let's set them aside for a moment.  Now, Jacob and Teresa.  They are I am sure sinners and all, but they ARE GREAT! 



(forgive me sister!  For she is no longer prego!)
 
So much fun to have around.  We were not BFF's more like church Family so I am so looking forward to getting to know them on a relational level this Spring when they come home....(Jacob said that this place felt like home to him.)  Ahhhh.  So sweet.  Would you pray for them right now, asking God for provision for their family to take this journey into the Great Unknown called ministry via missions?  The Lierz' fam donated goods to our Pancake Feed we had to raise money for our CDTS.  They are good peeps.
 
TRANNY BROKEN AGAIN?
So, Dusty will be going home to Olathe with them!  What you say.  Why you say?  Well because 1 year ago December we got a new transmission in our truck. A couple of thousand dollars later.  Well, tranny broken again!  We have no reverse and hopefully Dusty will not loose any other gears as he drives all the way back to Olathe to have the warranty work done.
 
Mom's Lunch was awesome yesterday, Mary Haegland a long time YWAM'er and the former base leader shared with us the ABC's of marriage.  Very cleaver, and to the point.  We loved it.
 
Today I get to go to NEW LIFE CHURCH to a mamas discipleship afternoon break!  That was where we attended the Spring Fashion update.  So much fun being a daughter of a loving Father! 
 



And last but not least here are my awesome scriptures from today and yesturday, ENJOY!
 

James 1:5-8 (New International Version, ©2010)

5 If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. 6 But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. 7 That person should not expect to receive anything from the Lord. 8 Such a person is double-minded and unstable in all they do.

James 1:5-8 (The Message)

 5-8If you don't know what you're doing, pray to the Father. He loves to help. You'll get his help, and won't be condescended to when you ask for it. Ask boldly, believingly, without a second thought. People who "worry their prayers" are like wind-whipped waves. Don't think you're going to get anything from the Master that way, adrift at sea, keeping all your options open.

James 1:5-8 (Amplified Bible)

5If any of you is deficient in wisdom, let him ask of [a]the giving God [Who gives] to everyone liberally and ungrudgingly, without reproaching or faultfinding, and it will be given him.
    6Only it must be in faith that he asks with no wavering (no hesitating, no doubting). For the one who wavers (hesitates, doubts) is like the billowing surge out at sea that is blown hither and thither and tossed by the wind.
    7For truly, let not such a person imagine that he will receive anything [he asks for] from the Lord,
    8[For being as he is] a man of two minds (hesitating, dubious, irresolute), [he is] unstable and unreliable and uncertain about everything [he thinks, feels, decides].

I love this;)

Getcha worship on  





Bonus....
Ava let me take a pic of her latest English assignment.  Abeautiful story of a Robin's family returning home after a long winter to have babies that grew to be 22 and then got married to 2 handsome Robins.  All involved were twins of course.  Um, halarious story,  halarious reaction from Ava when I asked if I could put it on our blog....
