Valentine's Day
13 This is how we know that we live in him and he in us: He has given us of his Spirit. 14 And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. 15 If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in them and they in God. 16 And so we know and rely on the love God has for us.
God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them. 17This is how love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment: In this world we are like Jesus. 18There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
19 We love because he first loved us. 20 If we say we love God yet hate a brother or sister, we are liars. For if we do not love a fellow believer, whom we have seen, we cannot love God, whom we have not seen. 21 And he has given us this command: Those who love God must also love one another.

It has been way too long...
Deuteronomy 6:4-9 4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one. Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates.
E is reading! It is amazing! She loves to read and we give her every chance. We are enjoying watching her grow academically as well as spiritually. She really has gotten it that she is supposed to read her bible everyday and pray first thing in the morning. Her personal walk with the Lord is precious and her own. They are both loving Awanas and it was a true gift and blessing we joined this year. Although, loves learning she is getting tired of having to "sit still and listen." She says, "It's hard work." Too cute. I can imagine that she is feeling restricted but loves her teacher and made friends.
Well, we continue to love the Lord our God with all our heart, all of our soul, all of our strength, and all of our mind! Much love to all who read this blog; sorry it has been a while since I updated you on our family life.
