God's Power in the Weakness of the Stauffer Family

I just want to take a minute to point you in the direction of God's power and the Gospel at work in a real family in an extremely painful time.  Most of you know of the murder of Emily Stauffer, daughter of Pastor Terry and his wife Juanita.  In the midst of this severe trial Terry has blogged a few times to update those who are praying.  He  talks about their weaknesses and pain, but also the great hope they have in Christ and how God has used a variety of resources to help them.  I have been touched and encouraged by his honesty and faith.  That combination is a powerful testimony and ministry to others who may be or will experience pain.  I highly recommend that you bookmark his blog and go there regularly to remind yourself to pray and to learn from this godly family.

We got to see God's power at work in the Stauffer family first-hand over the Thanksgiving holiday. It was such a blessing to see the way God comforts those who seek Him and an encouragement for me to go to Him first when I am facing trials. Please continue praying for these Godly people.
