We just celebrated our 10th anniversary. Wow! My parents watched our four kiddos while we went camping-just the two of us. It took a little time to remember how to talk to each other, but after that we had a wonderful time. We spent time in God's word, praying together, reminiscing about all that God has brought us through(highs and lows), and thought about a vision for the future.
Our family verses are Romans 12:1-2.
Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God-this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is-his good, pleasing and perfect will.
Our family is definitely a work in progress and we are learning as we go. God is good and leads us patiently down his path.
PS We are not perfect by any standard. On the last night we miscommunicated about something minor. That turned into a heated argument with lots of hurt feelings. The next morning we were doing much better. Overall, the positives far outweighed the negatives on this trip!
