Only These Remain...


These are more of my latest creations. They hang over my sink. This is where I spend tons of time since we don't have a dishwasher. These three words have truly become a lifeline for us these days. Scripture says that Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. John and I are sure that God loves these people and that he has a plan for their lives and that despite the hopelessness that many of them feel (including us some days) we have hope that God will redeem this town. And the biggest thing that we can do is love love love. And this means love in a tangible way most of the time. These words remind us that we can't put God in a box - that because of Jesus we are not hopeless despite what our feelings sometimes tell us and that to love is to serve them and to meet them where they are rather than asking them to come to us.
