WHAT DO WE SEE?

We just got back from a wonderful place. Hot Springs Village Arkansas. The time of the year reminded us of the change that goes on in our lives. Change that God makes if we just open up our hearts and let him transform us. It was jus beutiful, the mountains with all the colors and the wonderful display of God's creation.
And when we say God's creation we mean all of God's creation. We forget sometimes that we are part of it. In fact we are according to Him, the most important part, because he made us in His image. The brothers and sisters of Hot Springs Village, make of the place a brighter one. And we were reminded to put our sight on things above. We had a wonderful time being among people that love the Lord, and show their love with their works.
We took the kids to see the water dam, the three sisters lake and drove around the village admiring it's lakes, trees, and all the ups and downs of its roads. The kids loved it all. On our way back, Maribel asked Isabella our daughter what she liked best about Hot Springs Village and our trip to Arkansas. With a smile on her face she said "THE HEARTS OF THE BROTHERS AND SISTERS". That's what she saw. Isn't that what the Lord sees?. God bless the Church in Hot Springs Village and the impact they are making in the lives around them. Praising God not only with their lips, but with their whole hearts.
