Desiring God ministries, the group that released this video of us earlier this spring, just released the top 25 of their blog posts for 2012, based on readership. at the top of the list was one of ours, and was viewed more than any other post.

and as we sit here, listening to a christmas album on vinyl, looking at the posters of notes for our book taped all along our wall, we wonder what God is up to. it doesn’t make sense that so many people would be drawn to our story. in our newly re-arranged suite, the hours and days and months coming up are unknown. the work that God is creating in our families is unknown. but if it’s anything like 2012, it’s going to be surprising.

love came down

By admin, 30th November -0001

i need a place to hide, to bury myself into rest and into the love that was bought for me. far too human to love as deeply in return as i have been given, i weakly thrust myself onto love that came down, love that rescued me and rescued my husband.

~ love came down and rescued me….i am forever yours ~

April 20th?

By admin, 30th November -0001

Right now, my older brother is lying in a hospital bed enduring a coma that has taken up the last six months of his life. It seems to me like a bleak situation, it seems like there’s no point to this. There’s nothing more we can do to help him get out of it.

But then I realize this is a perfect opportunity for me to see God in greater, more accurate way. When I can’t do anything, that’s when I see the reality that I’m a dependent person, and my only choice is to rely on God, anyway. This is when I’m reminded God is in control of everything, and he knows what he’s doing (Romans 8:28).

April 20th is the hospital’s target date for when he’ll finally come home to the handicap-accessible addition our church built for him. He can come home as soon as we build a driveway around the house to his room.

But join me in praying that he won’t need the addition. Pray that he’ll be able to walk home.

Thanks a million,
-Ben

So what is love? What does it mean to be loved by Jesus? Love means giving us what we need most. And what we need most is not healing, but a full and endless experience of the glory of God. Love means giving us what will bring us the fullest and longest joy. And what is that? What will give you full and eternal joy? The answer of this text (1 john 11:1-16) is clear: a revelation to your soul of the glory of God—seeing and admiring and marveling at and savoring the glory God in Jesus Christ. When someone is willing to die—or let your brother die—to give you (and your brother) that, he loves you.

Love is doing whatever you have to do to help people see and treasure the glory of God as their supreme joy—to help people see and be satisfied with the glory of God.
