The best part of waking up.....

My phone rang at around 6:30 this morning and as I sleepily said "hello?" I woke up to my niece, Macy, saying, "Aunt Jaclyn, I asked Jesus in my heart tonight". When I asked her why, she said that Jesus was knocking on her door. She went on to say that she prayed with her daddy.

If you have lived with me or been around me in the mornings, you know that I'm not a morning person. But, this was by far one of the best wake-up calls I've received!

My sister, brother in law, nephew and niece were all headed on a M trip with their children's ministry. As they were discussing what they would do when they got there, Macy realized she didn't have a testimony to share.

These are the times that I miss home and family because I just want to hug her and see her smile! Happy Birthday, Macy.

Matthew and Macy are so precious, and they do love their aunt Jaclyn. That's so nice to have a family missionary trip. We know that their parents have grounded them in the Bible and in family prayer (on your knees!) I'm so proud of all of them!
