For those that watched Nashville Star last night, you heard Josh's song that was written for his mom which is my sister. Lots of emotions running last night since it's been ten years or more since I've seen Josh. I know Josh has been hurt by a lot of things in the past and it's really too bad. Divorce can be an ugly thing and Josh does not know the entire story. I know his mom dearly loves him and would like nothing more to connect with him. None of our family has known for years where he has been until all of a sudden he shows up on t.v. This really reminds me of the power of forgiveness and the words of Jesus. We all make mistakes and none of us are perfect and so I'm glad for the forgiveness of Jesus and I'm glad that I can then offer that forgiveness to others. My prayer is that someday Josh will come around and really want to connect with his true mom. I know that our side of the family would want nothing more then to accept him back no matter if he is a Nashville Star or not.

Pastor Todd we well know what divorce can do to a family. We have witnessed the pain and the struggles, as whatever affects your children, no matter the age affects you too. We watched and cryed many tears on our knees for the child that was involved. Only HIM can heal the hurts, for which we are so grateful. I see some wounds be touched just this past year. We will never give up though standing in the gap, as HE is so faithful to HIS promises. Kathy
