Carry Our Sorrows

This summer I've been flipping through National Geographic and some other publications that regularly highlight suffering and poverty around the world. And all around me people are hurting from abuse, depression, loss of a loved one, family problems, estrangement, etc.Thinking about all this sorrow gets me overwhelmed with grief. Can we be healed?

Surely he took up our infirmities
and carried our sorrows.

Amen.

The Gift of Marriage

On July 30th our brother Ethan took Heather to be his bride. These pictures are hijacked from someone's facebook album; hopefully I'll be able to show you better pictures later.

This couple is amazing. Heather is incredibly resilient and authentic. Love her so much and so blessed to call her my sister. Ethan is compassionate and driven. I was bursting with joy to see my little brother completely enthralled with his new wife. They have a special deep love for each other. Inspiring. Makes me want to praise our Heavenly Father for giving us the gift of committed marriage.
