Funny new thing about Noah is really that he LOVES to put on shoes. He figured out how to put on flip-flops last week (Madisen's of course) and loves it when people leave their shoes out!

Susan, 37, and Andrew Miller, lost wife's battle with cancer, after celebrating their son’s birth six weeks ago. “This lady was the real deal,” Mr. Bowman said. “When she learned of her [pregnancy and cancer diagnosis], she knew she would not sacrifice her son’s life. She had a strong ethic for life.”

2 Corinthians 4:6 For God, who said, “Let there be light in the darkness,”
has made this light shine in our hearts so we could know the glory of God that
is seen in the face of Jesus Christ.
7 We now have this light shining in our hearts, but we ourselves are like fragile clay jars containing this great treasure. This makes it clear that our great power is from God, not from ourselves.
8 We are pressed on every side by troubles, but we are not crushed. We
are perplexed, but not driven to despair. 9 We are hunted down, but never
abandoned by God. We get knocked down, but we are not destroyed. 10 Through
suffering, our bodies continue to share in the death of Jesus so that the life
of Jesus may also be seen in our bodies.
Galations 5:3 I’ll say it again. If you are trying to find favor with
God by being circumcised, you must obey every regulation in the whole law of
Moses. 4 For if you are trying to make yourselves right with God by keeping the
law, you have been cut off from Christ! You have fallen away from God’s
grace.
Galations 5:16 So I say, let the Holy Spirit guide your lives. Then you
won’t be doing what your sinful nature craves. 17 The sinful nature wants to do
evil, which is just the opposite of what the Spirit wants. And the Spirit gives
us desires that are the opposite of what the sinful nature desires. These two
forces are constantly fighting each other, so you are not free to carry out your
good intentions. 18 But when you are directed by the Spirit, you are not under
obligation to the law of Moses.
We become the enthusiatic person who has no soil of character when the hard times hit.
Matthew 13:18-19"Study this story of the farmer planting seed. When anyone hears news of the kingdom and doesn't take it in, it just remains on the surface, and so the Evil One comes along and plucks it right out of that person's heart. This
is the seed the farmer scatters on the road.
20-21"The seed cast in the gravel—this is the person who hears and instantly responds with enthusiasm. But there is no soil of character, and so when the emotions wear off and some difficulty arrives, there is nothing to show for it.
Revelations 3:19"The people I love, I call to account—prod and correct and
guide so that they'll live at their best. Up on your feet, then! About face! Run
after God!
20-21"Look at me. I stand at the door. I knock. If you hear me call and open the door, I'll come right in and sit down to supper with you. Conquerors will sit alongside me at the head table, just as I, having conquered, took the place of honor at the side of my Father. That's my gift to the conquerors!
