Our Symphony

It’s funny how life comes at you like a classical symphony. Tempos and tunes change throughout the piece, but it all sounds beautiful together. Sometimes the music is lighthearted and seems to fly, while other times the music sounds richer and deep.

For my family, the month of June had it’s very own tune. It was characterized by unique events, plans, and fun… We all enjoyed a beach vacation with Tim’s parents, Tim evangelized at West Virginia youth camp (Praise the Lord for 19 teens who received the Lord Jesus Christ into their hearts!), Ava got her cast off, I planned and taught Ladies Day and planned a small group lesson, we hosted family at our home, and we celebrated our little Ava’s first birthday with a party.

Then, July came and the tune of our orchestra changed as we took on responsibilities that came all at one time… financial decisions, planning, research into new policies, paperwork that must be done, appointments of all sorts, Tim’s summer class, and so on.

I don’t know what the next month will hold, but I’m looking forward to it. Every day of our lives is one more beautiful bar of music that adds depth and interest to the overall piece. If our effort each day goes to glorifying the Lord, we will certainly create a wonderful symphony.
