I held a moment in my hand, brilliant as a star, fragile as a flower, A shiny sliver out of one hour. I dropped it carelessly. O God! I knew not I held opportunity. - Hazel Lee

"Thank You For Healing Me"


The disease of my soul was spreading,

Eating me up on the inside,
Keeping my heart from your new life.
And i see now where I was headed 
For there is no cure that can save us,
Outside of Your mercy Lord Jesus.

Yes, You stepped in with Your power to save,
Let forgiveness reign, 
Worked a miracle within.

Thank you for healing me;
I was dying beneath my shame 
But You brought me to life again, and I will sing:
Thank you for freeing me 
I was dead to the truth of You,
But my healing was in Your wounds, and now I sing: 
Thank you for healing me.

Though outwardly I may waste away,
On the inside I´ll be more alive every day.
As I walk through times of pain and grief
There´s a deeper truth inside of me... 
You have placed Your life inside of me.

I´m alive, I´m alive.
I´m alive, I´m alive in You.
Thank you for healing me.

Little Thoughts.



"This is the beginning of a new day. You have been given this day to use as you will. You can waste it or use it for good. What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever; in its place is something that you have left behind...let it be something good." -Unkown (to me anyway)

The place where God Calls you is the place where your deep gladness & the world's deep hunger meet : Frederick Buechner 

Whether you turn to the right or left, your ears will hear a voice....
"THIS IS THE WAY, Walk in it" -Is. 30:21

God cannot give us a happiness and peace apart from Himself,
because it is not there. There is no such thing. - C. S. Lewis

"God - you're my God! I can't get enough of you!" Ps 63:1

Welcome!

Hello Everyone -

We have set up this blog so we can stay in touch with all of you - Our Family & Close friends!

A quick update (for those of you we've lost touch with): We are living in South Florida, and working with an incredible group of leaders to building a  spanish church! Rene works with a company called ARISE & is the pastor at Los Pentecostales de Cooper City. Rhona is finishing a B.A. in Sociology, and working at Bath and Body. 

Recently we visited Arkansas & had a wonderful time! It was awesome seeing and spending time with all of you!
Below are a few pictures & hopefully will have a few more to post over the next few days!


We love you all!
Renè and Rhona.
