I Shall Not Be Moved!

Jesus is my Savior, I shall not be moved;
In His love and favor, I shall not be moved,
Just like a tree that's planted by the waters,
Lord, I shall not be moved.

In my Christ abiding, I shall not be moved;
In His love I'm hiding, I shall not be moved,
Just like a tree that's planted by the waters,
Lord, I shall not be moved.

If I trust Him ever, I shall not be moved;
He will fail me never, I shall not be moved,
Just like a tree that's planted by the waters,
Lord, I shall not be moved.

On His word I'm feeding, I shall not be moved;
He's the One that's leading, I shall not be moved,
Just like a tree that's planted by the waters,
Lord, I shall not be moved.

Chorus
I shall not be, I shall not be moved;
I shall not be, I shall not be moved;
Just like a tree that's planted by the waters,
Lord, I shall not be moved.

And They Can Swim

If you live anywhere near Camp Nickajack I highly recommend it!! Even if you have to drive a little it is awesome! You can pretty much be guaranteed they will be swimming by the end of the week. As a matter of fact - they were jumping off the diving board on day 2! Amazing.

Mr Bert (Hannah and Justus' teacher) has been doing this for many years and is fantastic!

On Friday (the last day of the swim lessons) they do a little "swim show" for all the parents. It is the first time the parents get to even see the pool.

I suppose, so they don't have to remember so many real names, they give everyone nicknames. Remembering 12 nicknames is probably easier that remembering 36 real names. SO, Hannah was Mermaid and Justus was Shark. The kids think it is great and LOVE having Mr Bert call them their nicknames.

One night I said to Justus "Good Night my little shark" and he laughed and he said "I'm not shark. Mr Bert is not here!" Hilarious!

On the first day Chris asked Hannah in a very surprised voice "YOU put your face IN the water?" She looked at him with big eyes and said "We Have To!" I can't get over it. SO funny!

Notice in this one they are jumping off the diving board in 9 feet of water.
Hannah is better than I ever thought she would be this summer. It is amazing!



Did you see how Justus was "jumping" waiting for Mr Bert to tell him to go? Justus never went before he was told to, but he always was jumping anxiously waiting for his turn. It was hilarious!



Here they are jumping into 5 feet deep water where neither can touch. Mr Bert liked how Hannah would jump out so much. One of Justus' things that we have to work on is that he wants to jump in vertically not horizontally.

Please also note the jig Justus does waiting for his turn. Makes me laugh every time.

Enthusiasm

Peter said, “Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah.”

When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?”

Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call.”

With many other words he warned them; and he pleaded with them, “Save yourselves from this corrupt generation.” Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day.

They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in common. They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need. Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.

Acts 2:36-47

This is the kind of enthusiasm I want to have for the Lord.
Why do we not have time for our Christian brothers and sisters?
Why do we not share EVERYTHING we have?
This says they got together every day.
This says they sold stuff to give.
I really need to think. Really.

And Speaking of...

Nannah and Papa's swing is usually a regular past time when we are visiting. Everyone loves it!

Happy Birthday Chris!

How hard you work inspires me.

How much you care overflows my heart.

How handsome you are makes me weak in the knees.

How smart you are makes me so proud.

The patience of your heart brings calmness to mine.

The kindness of your smile makes my heart soar.

The laughter inside you makes my eyes twinkle.

The love you show makes my heart flutter.

The softness of your lips makes me stop in my tracks.

The strength of your embrace insures my safety.

Your commitment to the Lord brings joy to my days.

I love you Chris!
Happy Birthday!
