Good Morning

“I can do all things though Him who strengthens me”  -Philippians 4:13

“And my God will supply every need of yours according

to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.”  -Philippians 4:19

It can be hard sometimes but what we see as a “need” , God does not. I think if we truly examine our “needs” we will find they are actually “wants” for our own pleasures and not for the glory of God.  A lesson God is showing us in our own lives.

This morning has started off great…Lincoln slept in till 8:30! That’s pretty late for him. But he’s been all energy since then. It’s interesting watching him wake up because he goes straight for his favorite things every morning. So what are some of Lincoln’s favorite things?   Here’s  10 :

1. his Bear

2. soy milk & chicken nuggets

3. wearing shoes but no shorts

4. the book ” The Icky Sticky Frog” byDawn Bently

5. talking about his cousin baby Bekah who lives in Guatemala

6.phones

7. playdough

8. brushing his teeth

9. his dog Bella

10. playing hard with Daddy!

Little Bear with his bear

Good Morning

Weir Family Blog Begins: August 23, 2010

THE INSPIRATION

To start things off, here is a picture of the inspiration that started this blog. You will find, when reading and following along with us, that we have  no medical cures to save the world, no popular charisma that will make you stock us. All you will find is that we are a family that is sharing a few of the small moments that we covet together with you. But only a few. That’s all for now.

“Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”

Isaiah 41:10

Family Bicycling

Riding as a family is always good. This afternoon was no exception. We had a beautiful and fun ride.A little sweaty, but we kept moving so the wind did, too.  Lincoln rode rear on Michael’s bike and Christina rode solo.

"Don't Waste Your Life"

God created us to live with a single passion to joyfully display His supreme excellence in all the spheres of life. The wasted life is the life WITHOUT THIS PASSION.
