Sad Day, Victorious Day

As I'm writing this, we are heading to my parents' house. We said goodbye to our family at Heber Springs Baptist Church today. I don't think I have the words to express how much I love this body of believers. We have truly made lifelong friends. We will miss them terribly.

My favorite part of the day was the worship service this morning. We spent the whole service singing songs that are favorites of the choir and the church. What an awesome time of worship it was. I will never forget this day. We stood with our family and magnified the name of Jesus together. That is why this day is victorious. God is doing a work in our lives and in the life of this church, and even though we are going down separate paths we will forever be connected because of our love for Jesus.

Possibly my favorite moment of the day was watching Bill and his kids sing during the offering. The song they chose was perfect and reflected exactly how I'm feeling. I'll try and post the song later when I have a better connection.

Well, we've made it safely to my parents' house so I have to get some sleep. We have an early morning ahead of us. Thank you Heber Springs Baptist Church for a day I'll never forget. God bless you!
