when the storms roll...

as i've stated in my last two posts, things are a bit tough for john and i right now. it seems as though nothing is going quite right. it has been a true test of our faith, trusting God to provide for our needs and not depending on our own strength and abilities. if you are able-please continue to pray for us...

• we are looking for a family to adopt our yellow lab, sage. it is hard for us to give her away, but we think it is the best for her and for our situation
• we are looking for a new place to live once our lease comes up in August...which will be SO much easier if we do not have the limitation of dog requirements
• john will be applying to graduate school soon and we are praying he is able to get into the program here so we can stick around for a while
• john is also looking for a new job. one that will provide a little more and still be flexible with possible school schedules

thank you! i know these things don't seem to rough or difficult, but they have been wearing on us greatly.

it is easy to forget that we need to depend on the Lord solely for all things, big and small. He is continually drawing us near to Him and I am so grateful for His faithfulness. i am weak and HE is strong!

(for all those campers out there) 'when the storms roll, when the storms roll, when the storms roll in my life-hey! i am weak but he is strong, by HIS might, I'll hold on tight. when the storms roll, when the storms roll, when the storms roll in my life!'
