Marking Milestones-

 A page in Elisa's Bible.
So- back in August,
 I was asked if it was possible
 for a mom and 2 daughters to come to the
 studio in my house 
for some special time together.
Actually- to mark the 21st birthday 
of daughter-Anna.
Many of you know the mother-
that's Eliza Ferguson. 
She keeps lots of things 
spinning and in order in the 
Southeastern District office.
She is a humble, capable, organized go-getter
 and this was a small look at "intimate mothering."
This was Anna's page in her Bible-
marking a birthday milestone.
 pages in the Bible - 
from daughter -Elisabeth.


As they drove away I lamented 
that I hadn't got any photographs of their time together.
Elisa later assured me they did "capture the moment".
It is woven into the very fabric of their time in His Word,
talking, interacting, responding to God's text message.- TOGETHER.
Time to slow down, pay attention.
Be intentional.
Build community.
What other small group 
is more important to lift in prayer,
unravel the challenges, and join TOGETHER- 
than family?
Thanks for the opportunity 
to be a witness of this reminder.
To see how Visual Faith 
can be an integral part of the storytelling.
It's what discipling is all about.
It starts at home- FIRST.
And this is a milestone to remember.
