Grateful for people and getting to know them
When you sit down to look at your blog and you find some thoughful, kind, encouraging statement or comment, you smile, you thank God for His children and you attempt to write something else. I think that the idea God had to make relationships very important is one of the greatest blessings ever. Even the challenges and the disappointments are worth taking the time, spending the energy and pressing on in the pursuit of relationship. It is tough when folks move or the chance to talk is greatly reduced, but the time well spent and the bond that forms and the chance to reach back and remember is all worth it. We have been going through the school Open House thing and it is interesting to meet new folks, teachers and parents and staff and realize that all of us have a created purpose and to develop that gift or talent or even reveal that weakness or struggle can somehow work to the greater good. God's plan! Thank YOU LORD for relationships and people to love and live with and all the incredible ways that You stay involved in our lives.

Mike, your such an upbeat, positive, Christ loving man! I am so thankful to have you in my church family! By the way today as you drove out of the parking lot at church Matthew cried hysterically! I thought it was so funny since he really doesn't know you, he must just know a great person when he sees one! :)
Mike it's people like you that keep me coming back to Kalamazoo every week! It sure has been a joy getting to know you better this last year:)
josh and i are sitting here feeling like you're such a blessing. We are lucky to call the Kemple's friends and our adopted family!!!
Susan, Jen, Holly, Shelly and Josh...I love you all, you are such an encouragement to me on this journey. I am so glad that we call each other friend and are living this life connected.
May the grace and peace of our Lord Jesus be with you all.
