WOW!!!!!!
WOW!!!!!! WOW!!!!!! I have never heard of an Easter egg drive until now. We received two baskets full of eggs last night. Every one of them contained something--Scripture strips, letters, sticky notes, poems, necklaces, artwork, candy, money, stamps, gift cards--a smorgasbord of encouraging words and uplifting thoughts. Helen, Shan, Stef and I stayed up until after 1:30 this morning opening everything. We read all of them out loud and cried a lot. We are astounded by it all! We are humbled by all that was said and all of the love expressed from so many people. People came out of the woodwork, it seemed. We just do not know how to thank all of you. We don't even know where to start. You all have encouraged and lifted us up! Mike Bell said that if I wasn't the most prayed-for man in Texas, I had to be in the top five. I really believe that might be true. We just have been blown away by you guys and can't express how much we love you all. "How can we thank God enough for you in return for all the joy we have in the presence of our God because of you?" (I Thessalonians 9:9)

i promise you guys, this whole easter egg thing has been a blessing for all of us. God ministered to us, by us ministering to you. it was even exciting. i was really amazed at how many people responded in such a short time. so many didn't even know about it. what a great thing for all of us. thank you, God.
together, we can tear down strong holds.
we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. philippians 4:13

I finally got caught up on my blog reading. I was about three behind. I wholeheartedly agree with your comments about your wife. She is one in a million. "A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies. Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value. She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life." Proverbs 31:10-12
I also checked out your new theme song...LOVE IT!

Hi y'all,
It was good to see you at church today. I hope you are getting some much needed rest before you start your workweek.
We continue to pray for you.
Love you much,

I'm so glad ya'll had fun. We had a ball. I'm like Mom, we need to do this more often. Ya'll have touched our lives in ways you will never know. You bless us every day. I thank God for ya'll and your friendship. Thanks for being a blessing to our lives. We love you all very much. Kendall's ready to do more eggs. She had a blast. We would finish one and she'd be rubbing her hands together asking "now what".
We love you and continue to lift you up in prayer.

I am praying God's continued blessings on your life. My pastor said when we are in need what do we do, we call 911. Psalms 91:1 is our 911. Love the scripture: He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the Shadow of the Almighty. Wow we are under HIS wing. He guards and watches over us. Praying for you and thinking of you! Charlotte
