Happy Valentine's Day!

I saw this quote on a Facebook post from a school I worked at for 5 years in York, Pennsylvania.  They peppered this quote around the school building for Valentine's Day.  Precious! 

Happy Valentine's Day to you from Montreal!  We are enjoying a fun day today.  Gabriel, our Little Bear, surprised us all by buying his sister a special chocolate Valentine.  On Tuesday, he went to the Pharmacy with Jerad and Morgan and appeared to "wander off".  When Jerad finally found him, he was ready to have a serious talking to!  But, Gabriel whispered..."Dad, I was buying Morgan a secret Valentine!"  Too precious.  We've had our moments these past 5 months with our children, but this is one I hope to remember for a VERY long time.

This week Jerad continued his Bible study in a local public school.  He has been so blessed by this opportunity.  He has a good core of 8 students who are faithfully coming out.  Thank you for your prayers regarding this.  Continue to pray for more open doors and for a revival among that campus and across Montreal.

I'm busy preparing lessons for our upcoming Missions Conference at Grace Church.  I love doing what I feel called to do.  God is so good and His blessings are abundant.

Psalm 84 is a beautiful passage.  I encourage you to read it in its entirety.  Here is a snapshot.  The words in bold are what the Lord brought to mind today.  Enjoy!

Better is one day in your courts
than a thousand elsewhere;
I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God
than dwell in the tents of the wicked.
For the Lord God is a sun and shield;
the Lord bestows favor and honor;
no good thing does he withhold
from those whose walk is blameless.
