September 2025
Over the years, we've always compared our family life to a wagon train heading west. Just as everyone had to do his part to get to Oregon years ago, so everyone in our family must do his/her part to make our journey through life successful. If somebody climbs in the wagon and lets the others do the work, we just don't make any progress. We all have to pull our weight and work together. Along the trail we find lots of pebbles that make for a smooth ride and some bigger rocks that jar us a little; we hit the occasional pothole that can slow us down. But if we purpose to search diligently, there are countless gold nuggets and precious gemstones along the way as well. This journal is an attempt to preserve some of those precious moments for our children, and our children's children, as together we travel this trail called life.

Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore. Psalm 16:11

3-31-13 He Lives

He lives, He lives

He’s risen from the dead

He lives, He lives

He’s risen as He said

He conquered death and sin

The grave could never win

He lives, rejoice, the Savior lives.

Although He healed the lame and the blind

Although He taught that men should be kind

They crucified the giver of breath

But He became the victor over death.

He lives, He lives

He’s risen from the dead

He lives, He lives

He’s risen as He said

He conquered death and sin

The grave could never win

He lives, rejoice, the Savior lives.

They tried to seal the glorious Son

They thought, at last, the night had come

But to the dread of all His foes

Three days later Jesus Christ arose.

He lives, He lives

He’s risen from the dead

He lives, He lives

He’s risen as He said

He conquered death and sin

The grave could never win

He lives, rejoice

He lives, rejoice

He lives, rejoice Jesus lives.

He lives!
