March 31 - TEC verse
14Do everything without complaining or arguing,
15so that you may become blameless and pure,
children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation,
in which you shine like stars in the universe. - Philippians 2:14-15
This weekend Morgan, Todd and I served at T.E.C (Teens Encounter Christ). The theme verse for the weekend is listed above. This verse was written two thousand years ago. Think about how is still applies to the our generation.
Blessings

March 30 - Spring on the farm
Spring on the Farm
Andrew was invited to a friend’s farm for an afternoon of fun on the farm. Much to Andrew’s delight, he was able to assist with the delivery of a calf. He was so excited to tell us all the details when he got home.
Andrew told me he learn a few lessons from the experience.
1) It is a good idea to have big, long gloves if you are going to assist the cow with delivery.
2) It is amazing that such big baby can come out of a cow!
3) It is cool that a baby calf can get up and walk right after birth.
4) Mommy cow’s do not like boys playing with their babies!

March 26 - Open Eyes and Heart
Open our eyes and hearts to find the blessings
On March 10th, Wanda, Andrew’s goat delivered three kids, unfortunately they all passed away. A couple days after the birth, Wanda developed and infect and pneumonia. Todd and Andrew worked hard to restore Wanda’s health, but Wanda’s weak body could not fight the pneumonia. Today, she passed away while Andrew was at school. Andrew again is heart broken, but relieved that she is not suffering and ill any longer.
On January 6th I introduced you to Wanda and wrote: “I am sure there will be more stories of White Wanda coming. I am looking for the blessings.” When we are surrounded with disappointment and death, it is hard to find the blessings, but they are there. Andrew has learned valuable lessons about love, life and death and the life on a farm. When we are going through the challenging times it is critical for us to look for the blessings. The blessings are there some times we just need to open our eyes and hearts to find them.
