TEMPTATION

No temptation has seized you except what is common to man.  And God is faithful, he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear.  But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.  I Corinthians 10:13

We have a confession, our biggest vice is ice cream. However, this incident was not our idea. Our son Roger took a trip north to see the fall color here in Michigan. He spent several days seeing the Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes, Mackinac Island, White Fish Point, Tahquamenon Falls, and the Soo Locks. Towards the end of last week we received a text from Roger inviting us to meet him for ice cream as he returned back to Adrian from the north country. By all means, who are we to turn him down. About two o'clock Sunday afternoon we received a call that we could meet him for ice cream in about an hour. Guess where he wanted to meet?


                                  Guess where we are.


When we are tempted He will provide a way out so instead of three scoops, Paul ordered two, and instead of two scoops Gail ordered one. But, Roger made up for it by ordering a three scoop sundae and he talked us into ordering fries to share. Even though the calorie count was extremely high the fellowship and time with our son was more than worth it. We encourage you to make time for those special moments.

Blessings and encouragement,

Paul, Gail, Patsy and Penny
