In Like a Lamb..

March is always such a wonderful month! Why? Well, it means february is over! The groundhogs annual prediction of 6 more weeks of winter is wrapping up and the sun even comes out to delight us every once in a while. For the first time in about 4 months I can see my grass again. Not such a pretty sight at first, but then after a little love it will look great again! Saturday was a more than spactacular day here in Grand Island, a high of near 70 degrees. I spent most of the day enjoying the sunshine in every way I could, including bringing my grill back to life after a 4 month hiatus under the dark and dreary grill cover. Now, after a day as it is in Nebraska, we are back to blustery winds and highs of closer to 40 degrees with a little snow and rain mix.

I am excited for this month mostly because we are transitioning into the Spring weather, plus we get to Spring ahead in our clocks next week. I love the longer days and seeing daylight past 7 o'clock. Coming up in a couple of weeks, I get an amazing opportunity to preach for the first time at church. Am I scared? You bet, but also, I have to say studying my Bible for this has been one of the best things I have done in a while and am having a lot of fun doing it. I preach on Good Friday and I am tackling the subject of Doubt. Interested? Come on up and take a listen. Otherwise I can send you the digital copy later.

The house is still great and I am conquering little home improvements every week. November and I are forming and molding our house more and more to fit us and it truly is home. If home is where the heart is, then I suppose we are where we are supposed to be. God's many blessings to us in Grand Island have been in areas which we have not expected, for example, my new job, the women November works with and the friendships we have made. It's great to know that we are a part of something greater, even though we don't typically know where we are going.

Well, that is all for now. Drop by and say hi, stay a weekend or two, or maybe just a phone call. Enjoy what is to come and we will see you soon!
