Forts and Bible Study

In our effort to do fun, cheap things, we decided that for our FOUR MONTH ANNIVERSARY we would build a fort in our living room. So we set out on this adventure last night after dinner (the quickest, easiest dinner... lots of veg and potatoes, covered with hamburger meat, cream of mushroom, and cheese all cooked in oven). Pictures are posted too ;) We got out the chocolate and coffee. We have loads of chocolate in our house and I adore decaf coffee. We lit candles. We planned to watch a movie right away, but had a sweet date just talking. I love Dave. He is my best friend. Then we watched a crude movie that had funny parts, but isn't reallly worth it (Stepbrothers). Did I mention he bought me a plant with beautiful flowers, bought us a book by Edith Schaeffer, and wrote me a beautiful letter? He is wonderful. All and all, our fort was a hit.

After work today, two of my friends came for coffee. Meet Rachel and Leanne. Rachel got saved on Easter. Leanne got saved in my kitchen. Precious to pray with both of these ex-addicts to receive Jesus. We got to read the Bible today, encourage each other, and pray for each other. Their lives are not easy. They face abuse, lack of money, temptation to return to addictions, and relational difficulties. But they have Jesus now. The Holy Spirit is in them. He is POWERFUL. And he loves and is crazy about them. Have you seen someone know the Lord recently? If not, get please get to know unbelievers and tell them about Jesus. There has been so much joy in the last couple of weeks. GOD IS REALLL. He is working.

Pray for how we can change my schedule so that I can spend more time with people in Merthyr that are poor and broken. My heart is for them. Pictures for you below. Anddd I have added in a little picture from a walk about a month ago. In the Brecon Beacons. Come visit us. But come on a nice day!!!
