Good Friends

My sister-in-law kindly pointed out that I have been slacking on my blog. Many apologies, Elizabeth; thank you for saving me from my non-posting ways.

Some friends stopped by briefly tonight. The DuPre family was here at IHOP before it started, were instumental in helping it build, and recently moved to the Nashville area. They were visiting some friends and family here in KC for Thanksgiving and stopped by our house. They are an incredible family: loving, kind and real. A few years ago, we lost our first baby girl (Hannah Grace) during birth. They were there for us in an incredible way.

One night soon after, Chris unexpectedly showed up at our door, movie in hand. He didn't rattle off some verses or doctrine, he was just there for us and demonstrated his love for us in practical ways. He helped our hearts on our pathway of healing and showed the tender heart of the Father to us in flesh.



Thanks for coming by tonight. We love you and miss having you guys closer, but we're glad to see how the Father is leading you on.
