Update Tuesday 26/04/11

God is so good! I have been reminded of that again this evening.  Kim and I are in Georgia, to visit and do some work at the North American Mission Board.  We just finished having dinner and getting to know some of the folks that we will be with tomorrow.  There were many questions about who we are, what we are doing and how we got to this place, which provides such an amazing opportunity to reflect on all that God has done for us over these past number of years.  When we have the opportunity to share, I always come away amazed at all that God has done and continues to do.  We were able to share about how we got connected to the Sanctuary, how we came to be in Milton and about our church family there.  We were able to share about our home church experiences and all that we have learned and what those groups have meant to us.  We were able to share all about Liam's story, how God brought us through and about all the opportunities to share that that has provided.  We were able to share about how God used Liam's story to put Hamilton on our hearts.  I was reminded about how God led us to our new neighbourhood in Hamilton.  God really has been doing amazing things and I am once again astounded, in awe and overwhelmed by all that He is doing. 

There were also opportunities to share about our family.  It was amazing to hear Kim share again about the process to adopt Daniel and Caroline.  Kim recalled Caroline's baptism, at which Caroline shared about how her brother Liam first told her about Jesus when she was 5 and he was 3.   Kim recounted the day when Liam came to her in a panic declaring that "we have a problem!"  Kim asked what the emergency was, to which Liam responded "Caroline does not know who Jesus is!"  She does now, thanks to Liam.  I can't wait to see how many others may have an opportunity to hear about Jesus through them. 

Thanks to everyone who left comments or e-mailed about the new song "Yes, This is Grace" we posted on Friday.  If you haven't had a chance to listen, then feel free to head back to last week's Free Art Friday.
