Good Words... HE Is....from Grace!
I recieved this via email from our church; Grace Church, of Eden Prarie, MN.
I'm posting it here.
Read thru each of the sentences of the song, and be encouraged how our Lord has cared for and directed, and often re-directed the affairs of man.
Jessica & I were watching a Veggie Tales classic...."Jonah" the other day.
I had to ask myself..."Lord, you surely don't want me to go to Ninivah?"..."do you?"
I've gotten sidetracked..... here's the body copy of the email...

He Is
One of my favorite reminders that the deity and character of Christ is proclaimed from Genesis to Revelation is the song He Is sung by the father-son team, Aaron Jeoffrey.
The words from the song say it well.
Truly, He is.
In Genesis, He’s the breath of life
In Exodus, the Passover Lamb
In Leviticus He’s our high priest
Numbers, the fire by night
Deuteronomy, He’s Moses’ voice
In Joshua, He is salvation’s choice
Judges, law giver;
in Ruth, the kinsmen-redeemer
First and second Samuel, our trusted prophet
In Kings and Chronicles, He’s sovereign
Ezra, true and faithful scribe;
Nehemiah, He’s the rebuilder of broken walls and lives
In Esther, He’s Mordecai’s courage;
In Job, the timeless redeemer
In Psalms, He is our morning song
In Proverbs, wisdom’s cry;
Ecclesiastes, the time and season
In the Song of Solomon, He is the lover’s dream
In Isaiah, He’s the prince of peace
Jeremiah, the weeping prophet
In Lamentations, the cry for Israel
Ezekiel, He’s the call from sin;
In Daniel, the stranger in the fire
In Hosea, He is forever faithful
In Joel, He’s the Spirit’s power
In Amos, the arms that carry us
In Obadiah, He’s the Lord our savior
In Jonah, He’s the great missionary
In Micah, the promise of peace
In Nahum, He is our strength and our shield
In Habakkuk and Zephaniah, He’s pleading for revival
In Haggai, He restores a lost heritage;
In Zachariah, our fountain
In Malachi, He is the sun of righteousness rising with healing in His wings.
In Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, He is God, Man, Messiah
In the book of Acts, He is fire from heaven
In Romans, He’s the grace of God
In Corinthians, the power of love
In Galatians, He is freedom from the curse of sin
Ephesians, our glorious treasure
Philippians, the servant’s heart
In Colossians, He’s the Godhead Trinity
Thessalonians, our coming King
In Timothy, Titus, Philemon, He’s our mediator and our faithful pastor
In Hebrews, the everlasting covenant
In James, the one who heals the sick
In First and Second Peter, He is our shepherd
In John and in Jude, He’s the lover coming for His bride
In the Revelation, He is King of King and Lord of Lords
He is, He is, He is
Worship Him alone, the One who was and is and is to come!

The not so "Spooky" Halloween kids

Thought I'd share them here as well.
I said..."Do you have
a little smackeral of honey!"
Here too are a couple late breaking new shots from CA.

Old photos...New Post
Here are some photos from Jessica's time at the regional MN Special Olympics meet for bowling.
I had posted earlier of her day on October 7th.
One week before these were taken, we had a major lightning strike, very close to our house that took out all of our computers. So I'm just now getting back to posting of the happennings in our household.
Soon I'll post photos of Sandra's time with the Mosley's in FL. Sandra is coming home Saturday evening.
I wish however, that from FL and CA, there would be more posting as well!
Hint, hint!

Home Again!
Today we took out the waterfront items at our lake cabin. (i.e. 2 boat lifts, the main dock, and addl. dock & pier to second boat lift.)
The work went well enough... it would have gone better, if the winch on the four-wheeler had worked.
No photos to post however.
Hmmm! The previous comment, reminds me that there are two families that need to "get-on-the-stick", and post some photos as well!
GrandDad Jones and Jessica are here in Mpls. (Sandra is enjoying "the real thing" and is with the newest grandbaby "Jonas" and family in FL).... and here I (we) sit waiting, for updates and more photos!
Hopefully, this will get the cameras in action!
Loving, and missing you all....

U-Haul arrival in Mpls
Well, I'm back!
Sandra held down the fort on the home front.
I was accompanied by; Dale, Evan, Seth, Brad (and Riley, Ryan & Rory), Dave & Carrie and of course Dad.
We got the important items; as far as furniture, clothing and kitchen items (food of course, as well...) packed and brought down to the Minneapolis area.
Evan & Seth were invaluable!
Evan has worked for some time for Quality Moving & Transfer in Edina, MN.
His expertise in loading a truck was proven. When I arrived home this evening, and opened the back door, all the items were still in the same spots we put them!
Tomorrow, I will unload the truck and set-up Dad in his new place.

"Moving Experience!"
This weekend we will move my father from his home in Northern MN., to a new apartment in Richfield, MN.
I (we) are renting a 26' U-Haul truck for the task. We had reserved the truck about a week and a half ago.
Here is the "mover beware" part.
I called on Thursday to confirm the rental and to order 18 moving pads as well.
I found out that they wouldn't have a truck for us at the location we chose.
The good part is that the U-Haul rental location was very proactive in helping us find one within close proximity.
I had experienced a similar situation when we moved Sarah's things to FL.
I had reserved a trailer, and had a specific pick-up date....but no trailer!
It is always best to call ahead and confirm!
I will post again to re-cap the events of the move.

The Fertility Gap
-- More Christians on the Way
BreakPoint Commentary
September 12, 2007
An interesting commentary by Chuck Colson aired on BreakPoint this week.
Here is a link to it: http://www.breakpoint.org/listingarticle.asp?ID=7036
I post this teaser below, and hope you will venture to Chuck’s BreakPoint website for an opportunity to read the full commentary. I believe via streaming audio, you can also listen online.
For the last half century, Western industrialized nations, fearing overpopulation and despoiling the planet, have made slowing population growth one of their top priorities. So now we are in the middle of what one observer calls a "global baby bust"—except, that is, among devout Christian families, those who take seriously the biblical mandate to "be fruitful and multiply." It shows that when Christians live out the biblical worldview, we not only survive, we thrive.
Sandra & I seem to have children with a "Christian World View", who are doing their part in this endeavor. Sarah & Nathanael are soon to have their third!

I hope my next blog post is a photo of the newest... Mosley baby!
Please pray for them, as they await this gift from above.

Photos from Florida

I hope that is not a poor choice of words!?
I'm not that well read.
However, Meggan joined her sister Sarah in Florida this past Wednesday.
Sarah is due to have her third any day. They have had fun together, and Meggan has been able to be of help to Sarah and family while they await the new arrival.
It was our hope the the newest Mosley would be here by now, but the "womb weaver" (as Sandy & I have referred to our Lord in the past) has chosen to keep this new one under wraps for a bit longer.
On Tuesday, Sarah will visit her midwife for a check-up.
I've included some photos we received from Nathanael this morning.

The House that Duane Built
From a fort with swings, ramp & slide, to a playhouse for our grandbabies to play house in, on their visits to Minneapolis.
The next transformation will be to re-roof it with asphalt shingles and re-side it with vinyl siding.
It might even get a cupola for its roof!
Then painting of the interior, carpeting and re-connection of the electric.
Evelyn, Michael, Lillian and ????.... Come & Enjoy!
Here are some photos of the day.
GrandDad Jones
P.S. Clark, Thanks again, for all your help!
