A Promise from God

The Bible study that I've been doing lately has us in Psalm 119---which is a very lonnnng Psalm. Anyway, in today's reading, I read Psalm 119:165:
"Great peace have they who love your law, and nothing can make them stumble."
In the mornings, I try to sit down with the boys and read a Bible story with them. We have a great little book with Bible stories and how to apply them in real life. Half the time I'm reading, I'm refereeing and disciplining and it can get very frustrating. God just reminded me today to keep on keeping on. It is our (mine and Robby's) highest calling to teach His word to our boys. When we are teaching them, they are growing to love it and "nothing can make them stumble." If we teach them His Word now, they will not stumble later in life because they will love His law. God just told me to do my job and He will take care of everything else. He has Noah, Luke, and Jonah in the palm of His hand.
I am humbled to be called by Him.

Big, Big House

Jonah LOVES to sing and we love it even more when we get to listen to him. His two favorite songs right now are "Stand on the Rock" and "Big, Big House". He goes to chapel with his class on Sunday mornings and they sing these there. I actually had to borrow the church's CD to copy the song so we could play it for him. Enjoy!
I will type the lyrics just in case you can't understand his sweet voice:
"Come, and go with me to my Father's House. Come, and go with me to my Father's house. It's a big, big house with lots and lots of room. A big, big table with lots and lots of food. A big, big yard where we can play football---TOUCHDOWN!! A big, big house...it's my Father's House"
