"May those who come behind us find us faithful." I love that line from ZOE's cd. You know, the one Chris got me for Valentine's Day that I've listened to about a gabillion times?! Chris smugly said, "Yeah, so the cd was a hit, huh?" Yes, honey. It's a hit. I love it. I want more.
Seriously, though, I love the song, "Find us Faithful" and the line that says, "May those who come behind us find us faithful."
The people listed above are people who have left this earth. People who I found to be faithful. I pray that I'll make it onto someone's list when I've left this earth for another.

Please Lord,
Help me to live a life that others will find to be faithful. I struggle and fail so often, so I thank You for your grace & mercy. I thank you for H.A. Fincher's quiet spirit and love for teaching others about You, for Mark Hale's passion in showing You to all he met, for Maw Maw & Grandad's faithfulness to You and desire for their family to know You, for Grandma's love for her family and the way she served others even when she was tired, and for Barry's boldness in telling others about Christianity.
In Jesus' Name, Amen
I just love when my baby feeds her babies! So sweet!

We stayed with some Finchers when we came for your wedding -- are they the same ones? They were very nice people.
I also like to think of the people who've gone on being together in heaven -- Chad's sister, the three babies we lost, our grandparents -- I wonder if they all know each other up there.
I thought you stayed with Renee?
If you stayed with the Fincher's, was it an older man & woman (H.A. & Kakie) and their 2 grown daughters (Pam & Yvonne)? If so, that's them! H.A. passed away very unexpectedly quite a few years ago. As in, he was sitting at the kitchen table eating breakfast and his daughter came in and found him dead. So sudden.
I think it was Jason and Deana who stayed with Renee.
Bummer, I don't have that Zoe CD--I was gonna get it out and listen to that song! What a sweet thought of those that have left a legacy for you. How did you know Mark Hale? I went to OC with him--he died way too young!
JB~I cannot believe you knew Mark Hale. He was the preacher where we went to church in Uvalde, TX. He was such an amazing man that impacted us greatly while living there. I still keep in touch with his wife quite regularly and she is to me alot what you are...a Titus 2, Christian mentor, specifically when it comes to Gracie's education. Look back in my archives in July. I wrote a whole post about Mark.
Will check your archives--where is Uvalde?
JB-about 70 miles west of San Antonio.
