Lake Superior

By Kelley Asbury | February 24, 2010

Today we had a dentist appointment in Duluth, so we stopped by Lake Superior to make the day better :) Even though it was kind of cold by the lake I had fun with my camera…. It would be helpful if it started being a “Minnesotan Camera”, though…. he doesn’t seem to like the cold like I do :/  Anyway…….    Isn’t my mommy cute!??!?!               And just because……. there’s not a lot of pictures of me here :-)

Because Two are Better

By Kelley Asbury | February 21, 2010

“Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their labor.” For if they fall, one will lift up his companion.  “Though one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him.”  “And a threefold cord is not quickly broken.” [Ecclesiastes 4:9-10,12] “Where there is no counsel, the people fall; but in the multitude of counselors there is safety.” [Proverbs 11:14] Because two are better!

My Bro, Tom

By Kelley Asbury | February 20, 2010

This my brother Tom,   He’s nine years old, and quite ambitious. One of our favorite family stories was the time Thomas was fixing the toaster he found in the recycle and almost burned down the house…… :-) well, not quite, but in the words of Natalie, his little sister, “And it ‘tarted ‘parking! and then Thomas said, ‘unplug it! unplug it!”  The boys built a spearfishing/ice fishing house this winter, and Thomas decided he wanted to make his own decoy. It took him a little while and a lot of trial and error, since Tom is the first in the family to try and make one, but he did an amazing job! This is the finished product!

Without Him there is no Wisdom

By Kelley Asbury | February 18, 2010

“Or who has begotten the drops of dew? From whose womb comes the ice? And the frost of heaven, who gives it birth? The waters harden like stone, and the surface of the deep is frozen.”  “Who has put wisdom in the mind? Or who has given understanding to the heart?”  [Job 38:28-30, 36]

My Valentine???????

By Kelley Asbury | February 15, 2010

So. Who’s *your* Valentine????? Your hubby?? Your boyfriend/girlfriend??? Jesus??? =) Ok. So how about “Crabby Grandma and her Grandbabies”? uhhhhhh. nope.  uh uh. not at all. Today at church Mr. Zahm was talking about the heavy burden Paul had for the Children of the Lord, but also for the furtherance of the gospel. How Paul goes through the list of physical trials that he has endured, but then says that his burden of the gospel is even heavier. That he would give up everything for the good of the gospel. It pretty much hit me over the head then, that that’s what love means: having a heavy burden for the world, and the creation of God, that they might hear the gospel that saves; the story of Love. So much so that we cant keep it to ourselves. And it doesn’t mean just for out fellow believers, or our fellow believers, or our family, or our friends. It means Grandma and her Grandbabies. ooofta. It means passing that love on, because it’s such a burden to keep it that we can’t! I’ve been feeling God’s overwhelming love toward me, but I’m asking Him to give me an overwhelming burden that I can’t keep to my self. But that kind of brings me to another point…. where love isn’t a…

Who Created the Heavens

By Kelley Asbury | February 13, 2010

“For thus says the Lord, Who created the heavens, Who is God, Who formed the earth and made it, Who has established it, Who did not create it in vain, Who formed it to be inhabited;” “I am the Lord, and there is no other.” [Isaiah 45:18] “I have not spoken in secret. In a dark place of the earth; I did not say to the seed of Jacob, ‘Seek Me in vain’; I, the Lord, speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.” [verse 19] “Look to Me, and be saved, All you ends of the earth! For I am God, and there is no other.” [verse 22] “I have sworn by Myself; The word has gone out of My mouth in righteousness, And shall not return, that every knee shall bow, every tongue shall take an oath. “He shall say, ‘Surely in the Lord I have righteousness and strength. To Him men shall come, and all shall be ashamed who are incensed against Him.    “In the Lord all the descendants of Israel shall be justified, and shall glory.” [verses 23-25]

I Love You

By Kelley Asbury | January 30, 2010

“Death shall not part us // It’s you I died for.”  He loves me! Jesus loves ME! He loves me and desires me so much that He gave everything, even His life to be with me. It doesn’t matter what I’ve done, He doesn’t care where I’ve been, nothing I do can change the depth of His love. “Your My beloved, lover I’m yours // Death shall not part us // It’s you I died for // For better or worse // forever we’ll be / My love it unites us, and it binds you to Me // It’s a mystery.” [ Beloved, by Tenth Avenue North] It seems so simple, like I should have figured it out by now. We’ve all heard one of the most quoted verses of the Bible, you know the one….. “For God so loved to World, He gave His only begotten son….” But I have a head time accepting it. My sinful, prideful heart tells me that once I’m good enough, once I’ve changed these things, then I can spend my life with Him. After I’ve worked through all these things, then maybe I can experience His love. But He wants me just as I am. He is seeking me out, and nothing I can do (or don’t do for that matter) can…
