Homeward Bound

We got up and loaded up everything and then headed over to Gulf Shores First Baptist for early AM service. It was very enjoyable. They did a great tribute to America with patriotic songs and bells. Thank you God for this wonderful country of freedoms that we so often take for granted! Help me God to be ever mindful of those men and women whose lives have been forever changed by their sacrifice they made for me and my family! We then had lunch at Lambert's and a little more shopping and back to the big metropolis of Berry. The boys did so good traveling. Houston slept for over 4 hrs, almost the whole way home. Levi slept for about 21/2 and we made it back in time for our WONDERFUL church service. My Grandaddy was baptized tonight and I could have just shouted to the roof top!! He had so many family and friends there tonight and it was great to see all of them. He even had a man that he grew up with, come all the way from Bessemer to see him. The joy that has been bubbling over in my soul is unexplainable! The look of relief and happiness that now covers his face is awesome! Ain't God Good?! The old man has been buried and the new man is now living! Keep him in your prayers and KNOW that God still answers prayer! "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature:old things are passed away;behold, all things are become new."2 Cor 5:17
