Welcome to Draw from The Well!
For those who are new here, this is the newsletter that I send out once a month to friends and family. The newsletter is is one of my favorite ways to connect and to share ideas, information, and resources that will help us embrace God's design for our lives. The newsletter also links to the blog content for each month and typically shares some behind the scenes happenings.
Speaking of behind the scenes happenings, June has been a roller-coaster type month around here. While there have been many wonderful and exciting things happening in the area of ministry,as a family we have faced some hard.
During the month of June I've had the privilege of teaching a brand new weekly class about Life Balance - and what the Bible says about it - to a group of ladies who have now become my family! The "Gear-Up" for our now-annual prayer challenge for grandparents is well under way, and a new journaling resource is in the works!!!
This month as a family we've also faced some very hard as one of our members received a tough medical diagnosis. The prognosis is good. Praise the Lord!! But there has still been a flood of emotions to deal with and a major surgery to get through. In fact, the surgery is scheduled for this afternoon. We would love your prayers for the delicate surgery and for the lengthy recovery to come.
Still in it all, God is Good! We are extremely grateful for the prognosis, the highly skilled surgeon and medical team, and the grace God has poured out upon us in the form of prayers, emails, texts, hugs, and in so many other ways,
Perhaps, just perhaps, this is why I was led to "BE' as my word for the year and the reason He has orchestrated this six week class where our focus has been on learning to live a God-Centered Life. (Just sayin"!)
So many of you have been such an encouragement to me and my family this past month, I thank you.
Please be encouraged as you read this issue. May you find the articles and resources beneficial as you live a legacy of love and intention.
Thank you for reading.
