    Friday’s Family Friendly Finds {November 7, 2014 edition}

    Okay, quick story (that most of you will find boring). On Wednesday, I was scheduled to speak in Western Kentucky at the Briensburg church of Christ. We drove up during the afternoon in a typical fall rain shower. The rain was falling steadily as we drove on this cool November day. As we got into the state of Kentucky, I was scanning radio stations. Finally, I stopped…on “November Rain” by Guns n Roses. Maybe I’m the only one who thinks that’s ironic. Anyway, on to this week’s family links. This Week’s Finds Rekindling the Romance of Early Marriage {Of the Hearth} 5 Things That Don’t Matter (in Parenting) as Much…

    Do you not find it amazing that today is the last day of October? They say that time seems to go faster as you get older. If that’s the case, Methusaleh might want to look out, because I must be getting really old! Of course, today is Halloween, and whether you celebrate this holiday or not, we hope you enjoy the sights of the changing seasons…and maybe eat a piece of candy, too! On to this week’s family links.

    The signs of Autumn continue to grow all around us. From the beautiful changing leaves to the vitriol on Facebook over college football, it is obvious that the seasons are changing. The longer I live, the more I believe that time just seems to speed up and seasons slip quickly by. I hope we will all take the time to notice the beauty of the changing seasons. With that said, we move on to this week’s family links.

    October is here, which means that we are now seeing the glorious changes in weather that remind us once again that God is still in control. Each time we see the seasons change and the beauty of creation around us, we should just stop to praise Him. Not everything is always good, but God is always in control, and that makes everything okay! On to this week’s family links.
