Wow I have not been here in too long. As you can imagine other things have been keeping me busy. This will be redundant for many of you but I wanted to add this wonderful Guestbook post from our CaringBridge site. It is a great reminder that we have a Living God who walks on water in the worst of storms! Our Spirits rejoice even as our flesh weeps. God is moving and we are excited to see the results when the storm is stilled.
A big thank you to Karen for allowing me to share this in a more public way.

Hi Sam and Allana,
I am so sorry, my last entry got deleted except for the first line. You don’t know me but I went to Israel on a Missions trip with your sister Beth in 1983. I have had no contact with her since then until she befriended me on facebook yesterday. I went to her wall and saw your caringbridge link there, and while working all night, read the entire thing. I have no words except to tell you how much my flesh aches for you and all you are going through, and yet my spirit rejoices at how God is moving in you and through you to reach others in so many ways. I have been faltering in my faith over these past few years and just really struggling…trying to “figure out” who God really is and what Christianity is all about. As I read the words in your entries, God took ahold of my heart in a way that I haven’t experienced for a long time. I wish I had a better way to express it to you….but adequate words escape me. Thank you for your faith, your love for Him, your humaness, and your willingness to share this hard, hard journey He has you on. I will be praying continually….May you continue to feel His presence and peace during this difficult time.
