Expect great things from God

Hannah and I were reading today from one of her school books about William Carey. He was a missionary to India. There is a quote from him that just hit home with me today.  It is "Expect great things from God and attempt great things for God." There is a lot of change going on in our house right now. Jake is grown up and pretty much doing his own thing, school, girlfriend and church. Emily is deciding what direction she wants to go in life. As I read this it goes with what I have always told the kids as they were growing up. It you give it to God and do it for Him you will see the rewards at the end.  It may not be right now, but maybe down the road. David & I are trying to figure out what we want to do with our lives even as our kids are getting big and branching out, yes we still have a little one at home so that helps. Please pray for our family as we are all making decisions and doing what is right for the Lord! I have a feeling this year is a year of changes and attempting new things for Christ!
