Cook's Short Order Update
Genesis 1:23 "And there was evening and there was morning, a fifth day." What an amazing time to be around!
Happy Birthday to Nate a couple weeks ago, March 30! We are so proud of this young man. We love you son!
It seems God has chosen now for the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics to be in effect in our home. You know, the Law that states (very simply) that things are deteriorating. Take that, evolutionists! It is a law, not a theory or an hypothesis.
So, as I was saying, our weed eater, lawn mower, stove, and fridge have all decided to prove this law true. That said, I was able to fix the fridge (change water filter), the weed eater - 2 times, and broke again, get a part for the mower (jury is still out on this). The stove, however, is recommended for the recycle pile. "It will cost more to fix than to buy a new one." Crazy that such a small part (gas valve) could be so expensive.
So a few days ago we went stove shopping, just to look. As we were ready to leave Lowe's, Michelle noticed one on clearance, because the previous owners decided they didn't like the color. Well, happens that Michelle would rather have this color than others we were looking at. Absolutely nothing wrong with it, cheaper than even their sale items, free delivery, and already converted to LP.
So even in the midst of disorder, God shows up as the God of order and plan. Thank You, God! Pray that the grass will grow slowly, at least in our yard, until we are able to get a mower running. :)
We are getting involved with Camp David in various ways (writing devotionals, planning songs, and just being their for various visits. Our prayer is that God will allow us to be a blessing to this ministry and this staff and kids this summer.
We will be living in a motor home this summer. We'll get pix out soon. Expenses at the camp will be covered but we'll still have utilities at the farm house.
Thanks for sticking with us and praying for us. We love you,
Bruce
for Michelle (my lovely best friend), Bryan (21), Nate (20), Caleb (16), Kaitie (12), Seth (9)
