We are the Friesen's: So Long, Farewell....

Welcome....Here's a glimpse of our happenings!

The verses that have REALLY spoken to me (Sarah) lately....

"Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock." Matthew 7:24-25

Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings. I Peter 5:8-9

From one man he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live. God did this so that men would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us. For in him we live and move and have our being. As some of your own poets have said, 'We are his offspring.' Acts 17:26-28

May the words of my mouth and the mediation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, O Lord, my Rock, and my Redeemer. Psalm 19:14

So be careful to do what the Lord your God has commanded you; do not turn aside to the right or to the left. Walk in all the way that the Lord your God has commanded you, so that you may live and prosper and prolong your days in the land that you will possess. Deuteronomy 5:32-33

God, our God, will take care of the hidden things but the revealed things are our business. It's up to us and our children to attend to all the terms in this Revelation. Deuteronomy 29:29 (The Message)

So Long, Farewell....

Some of you (especially our small group guys and Young Married Sunday School class guys) might be a bit sad if you come over here.

Our pop fridge in our garage is no longer working. Nope, it's definitely beyond repair. And, at least for right now, we're not going to purchase a new one. We believe that there is better use of our money.

No more ice cold Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, and bottled water on a whim.

From now on, if you come over here and want a cold beverage, you'll have to warn us first. If you just show up unannounced, you might have to settle for a room temperature beverage.

Here's a photo of "Sad Marc," standing beside our non-functioning beverage cooler.

**Please Note: I just couldn't think of a Bible verse to go along with this post :) Somehow, I don't think the words "pop," "Soda," or "Pepsi" are actually used in the Bible. If they are in there, please post a comment with the address of the verse.
