Emily and Bethany met at Skyview Baptist Ranch several years ago. They have become quite close friends. Bethany is the one who asked Emily to join her when she went to Baptist Bible College on a college visit. Emily had never heard of BBC before then. Emily knew right away that BBC was where God wanted her to go. BEthany was not planning to come to BBC, but God worked things out and Emily was thrilled to hear that Bethany was coming as well. Both girls were so excited that the other was coming. They decided to become roommates. Bethany is a wonderful young lady who loves the Lord with all of her heart. We are so thankful for her steadfastness and her love for Emily. She and Emily are very good for each other. Yes, I am actually very thankful for texting! She is so sweet to send me one daily (and more). I LOVE this shot!
God has entrusted us with the awesome task of raising 6 precious treasures. We pray that they each will be raised in the fear and admonition of the Lord. God chose to bless us with 4 children through natural birth and 2 through the gift of adoption. We have put together a movie of the precious "births" of our little ones from China. You can click on any of the videos on the video bar below to get to you tube and then find just click on the video entitled: Gotcha Day for Elizabeth and Ri.
Despite my choices in life, despite that I wasn't seeking God, despite that I was living a life far from the one who created me.... He chose to save me.
He has given me a husband that is far better then one I ever dreamed of, blessed me with 6 amazing children, a roof over our heads, food on our plates, friends and family who love me no matter what. I have been saved by grace and grace alone.
