Thanks...

This is long overdue.  In a time when it's so easy to be unthankful we need to remember truths like these...
"Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, and in everything give thanks."  

We have seen countless prayers answered, and His grace shown over and over again.  We are thankful.

One day back in late February I wrote in my journal... "God? A full time job?"  That same day I had a phone call and a supervisor approach me both about taking on full time positions.

Also in February we prayed for inexpensive furniture for our new place.  Mark overheard at a dinner with friends that someone was getting rid of their couch.  Needless to say, two weeks later, we ended up with a free large corner couch, and a friend to deliver it as well!

We prayed for community, and we were placed in a small group of great people where relationships are able to grow.

There was a package we desperately needed from home by a certain date... it wasn't coming and wasn't coming and we prayed fervently.  At the very last moment before it was too late, we received a brown paper package... yet another answer to prayer.

He has been our provider.  He has heard our cries and answered.  And we are thankful...
