Just a day late, but never too late to be thankful for our country and for the freedoms that we still have. 2 Chronicles 7:14  If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

Lockhart Life In June

LOTS to be thankful for - so many blessings! Jeremy and Esther have been facing their trials in Brazil .  Esther has been battling some health issues, but the Lord undertakes for her and has given daily strength and grace.  She is improving and is working on a certain that diet that should help bring some relief.   Jeremy witnessed a bank robbery in Cuiba, Brazil this month.  We are thankful that he was not one of the vicitims.  Hummingbirds, flowers, mountain scenery - these are many of the blessings we see every day right from our own home. Our children have a heart for souls!  What more could we ask for.  There was a couple stranded on the road and David and MaryEllen stopped to help them, making sure their car got to a good mechanic and that the couple was taken care of until the car was fixed.  They were able to be a witness to this couple at the same time.  Divine appointment? Mel and I were privileged to take a vacation this mon...

Happiness, ASAP, Prayer

 My happiness does not depend on my circumstances" Psalms 1:1-6  Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.  But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.  The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away. Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous. For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish. ***************************************  ASAP - Always Say A Prayer and do it As Soon As Possible. *********************** Remember prayer should be our first response, not our last resort.  note:  Do I n...

My son witnessed a bank robbery in Brazil .  Wow!  How grateful we are for the Lord's protection day by day Hummingbirds and flowers! So thankful that even my four year old Grandchild knows the difference between "good" and "bad" music. How much better can it get than having children who have a heart for souls and a desire to witness and to see many saved A free spicy chick-fil-a sandwich this month -YUM!

Blessed Be the Name of the Lord

God is so good.  I must remember that God is good all the time no matter the circumstances.  Recently, my son and daughter in law moved to Brazil as missionaries and oh the trials they have gone through just since moving in March.  Our daughter in law has had some serious health problems with colitis and then contracted a bacterial infection.  We wonder why,  but don't question God for we know He knows what He is doing.  He is at work in their lives as well as ours.  We are thankful for their attitudes and their strength in the Lord through all of this.  In and through all of it, as Job, they have not "charged God foolishly"  but have put their trust in Him and not leaned to their own understanding.  You can read more detail on their blog " Lockhart Life In Brazil " Job 1:21-22  And said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of t...
