Yes, We are still alive. I can't believe how much running we have been doing. Between work, church, meetings, and all the duties of home there hasn't been much time to spare. I was planning on posting pics of the girls Easter dresses, but at the moment I can't find my camera. Sorry, but you will have to wait. Monty was wondering why I kept saying "I want my camera." I thought that maybe if I said it over and over, it might just pop into view. I was wrong. I still have no idea where it is. I'm sure none of that mattered much to anyone.
Like I said, so much has been going on, but God still has time in all of that to work on our hearts. Amazing how that never ends!!! The theme this year is Making A Difference. Each Sunday we are reminded to reach out and make a difference in the lives of others. Sometimes putting yourself out there can be scary and uncomfortable, but what if doing just that helps change their future. God has put some in my path lately that are easy to help. I pray that He gives me the chance to just be a friend. He has also put some others in my path that I don't know what the outcome will be. It is a time of stretching. Time to put myself out there and just let God take care of the circumstances. I can't make people do right and I can't make them be successful in their Christian lives. I can however be the instrument that God uses to bring them back to Him. It will be interesting to see what God will do. It is, after all, God that makes the difference.
I hope and pray that each of you are having a wonderful time in whatever it is that you are doing. May God bless each of you.

Making a difference is something that we all need to do. I thank the Lord that you have made a difference in my life. That may sound silly, but your friendship and the calls you make to me "just because you can" have really been a blessing to me when I have had some down times! Thanks, Jackie! I just thought I would let you know. Sometimes we try to make a difference in peoples' lives and we have no idea if we are accomplishing anything - well, you are! Hope you have a great weekend! Love ya!
