Our amazing small group planted a memorial tree in our yard yesterday
A Dennis Tree.....
a (for)EVERgreen tree....




In weeks past, I was searching desperately to find God in "all this". I knew he was there, but I couldn't feel him. It seemed as if He was just watching us like an audience member at a puppet show (although he the puppeteer)! Now that the initial shock has settled in and my tears a little less cloudy, I see Him everywhere. Mostly, I see Him in the hands, the words and the love pouring out from my/our Christian friends.


Sweet gift sent by my adoption friends in Ohio


When my Dennis fell, a battle cry was called and His army assembled. They went to work, His work, without pause. Even today, six and a half weeks later, the love and mercy of our Lord is pouring in to our lives through the hands of so many.

Thank you Lord for the gift of faithful fellowship!

James 2:14
What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them?

  1. Tracy, I am so sorry for your lost. I think about you all the time. You are a strong lady and you will find a way to get through all of this. I lost my father in a motercycle accident 5 years ago. It was the worst pain I had ever felt. The only way I could understand and accept it was that God knows the number of days he gives you, and that day was my dads number. Keep staying strong for you family and God be with you every day.

  2. What a wonderful thing to do!

    Stay in prayer at every moment especially in those of weakness and He will strengthen you.

  4. Tracy - you continue to be in my prayers. I love that you planted an evergreen for Dennis. I pray it grows big and strong like our compassionate God.
