The Year of Whoa

January 10, 2014 By Greg

The following was written by my husband, Greg, with an explanation of our word of the year: Whoa. I’ve never been very big on resolutions… I’m more of a “goal” kinda guy. Every year Caroline and I take a week or two to evaluate our lives, and declare what our next year will be about …read more

“For the joy set before him he endured the cross...” Hebrews 12:2⁣

You are the joy that was set before him. ⁣
⁣
Jesus endured the cross for us and considered it joy. ⁣
⁣
How can we experience true joy? Joy that outlasts the turmoil of 2020? Joy that surpasses all understanding? Joy that isn’t stolen by a diagnosis? One answer: Jesus. ⁣
⁣
May your true joy be made more complete this Christmas by remembering what Jesus has done for you.
Seven years ago, my journey of working with @tshox Seven years ago, my journey of working with @tshoxenreider began because of her friendship with @thenester.

I just sent out a newsletter to my subscribers with an update on my recent visit to Mayo Clinic. Click the link in my profile to read ❤️
Four days ago, I quoted the comforting words of @s Four days ago, I quoted the comforting words of @shellymillerwriter as I was contemplating the past three weeks of healing for Eden’s hip surgery. ⁣
⁣
Shelly passed away on Sunday night. Please click over to her profile and read her husband’s words about her passing...“As we grieve, we do so with hope.”⁣
⁣
Today, as I drive northwest to Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN for another round of follow-up appointments, Shelly’s words continue to be a balm to my soul...⁣
⁣
“When all the ways in which we find our identity have been stripped away, we stand like barren branches in a posture of surrender awaiting God’s next move.⁣
⁣
“Our purpose is to glorify God, not by doing more for him but simply being with him; trusting God rather than trusting in circumstances lining up.⁣
⁣
“Our greatest certainty in life is God’s presence and help.”⁣
⁣
I’m clinging to that certainty today. Thank you, Shelly. Rest well.
“It is when we are at rest that we hear the voic “It is when we are at rest that we hear the voice of God echoing over our worry.” @shellymillerwriter⁣
⁣
The echoes of God have been loud and clear during the past three weeks since Eden’s surgery. The echoes of prayers. The echoes of friendship. The echoes of healing. Worry has not held a place here and we are extremely thankful. 💛
