After the Storm

The important thing is faith- the kind of faith that works through love. Galatians 5:6

Symbols are important. Some of them, like communion and baptism, illustrate the cross of Christ. They symbolize salvation...but they do not impart salvation.

Putting your trust in a symbol is like claiming to be a sailor because you have a tattoo...

Our God...saves us, not because we trust in a symbol, but because we trust in a Savior.

We have gotten a lot a rain in Indiana lately. We don't normally pay much attention to flood warnings, but this one is closer than ever. Roads are washed out and even the interstate was closed for a day. So many people have been affected by this flood, up to 4 ft of water in their houses. It is so heartbreaking to see all their belongings in a pile in front of their houses, waiting to be hauled away.. Local churches are setting up shelters everywhere. Please send them your prayers.

Cool Slideshows

Here are a few pictures we took on Sat. This is on hubby's route to work. About 15 miles from our house. We are on higher ground and just had a flooded yard to clean up. Thank you Jesus...

Hey Mrs.Cathy!

Oh, my! I'll be praying for those people! I'm glad your house is on higher ground and just had a flooded yard to clean up.

The garden looks beautiful! Whenever I post, I'll post some pictures of the garden for you to see. Yes, we did get the plants from the greenhouse in Lexington. Ever since you brought us to that place, that's where we go and we tell other people about it. :)
And Mrs.Cathy, we would love it if you painted us a sign for our garden! We would be honored!
Well, I hope you have a wonderfully blessed day! Miss You!!!!

lots of hugs,
Jordan Lee
