"And if it seems evil to you to serve the LORD, choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell. But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.”
Joshua 24:15
Our Family
- The Macks
- Greetings from the Mack family. We are a family of 12 living in the country. We are of the reformed faith, attending Westminster Presbyterian Church. My husband and I are seeking to glorify God with every effort as we raise our children in the fear and admonition of the Lord. Some things we enjoy doing are fellowshiping with friends, singing songs of praise, taking trips to the river in the summer time, playing in the snow in the winter, camping as a family, and sharing great adventures together while serving Christ and His kingdom forever.

New background
We have changed the background, what are your thoughts about it? It's a little less scary. :)

Slowly but Surely
Well, this is our first post! Our little family blog is in the makings, but as of now, it is empty. Our family has been greatly busy with this Christmas season, and New Year. Today, as you all know, is the first day of the year. Our family usually has one main theme to improve upon throughout each year. We have been recently focusing on the mediation of Christ. As the new year has begun, the Father of our household has established a new theme of great significance, joy. Proverbs 15:13-17 is our passage for focusing on true joy.
" 13 A merry heart makes a cheerful countenance,
But by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.
14 The heart of him who has understanding seeks knowledge,
But the mouth of fools feeds on foolishness.
15 All the days of the afflicted are evil,
But he who is of a merry heart has a continual feast.
16 Better is a little with the fear of the LORD,
Than great treasure with trouble.
17 Better is a dinner of herbs where love is,
Than a fatted calf with hatred. "
But by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.
14 The heart of him who has understanding seeks knowledge,
But the mouth of fools feeds on foolishness.
15 All the days of the afflicted are evil,
But he who is of a merry heart has a continual feast.
16 Better is a little with the fear of the LORD,
Than great treasure with trouble.
17 Better is a dinner of herbs where love is,
Than a fatted calf with hatred. "
Have a wonderful new year as you grow in love, and follow Christ as His servant forever.
