Thursday evening Lori called and asked us to check the email for a photo she had sent. Her family was making doughnuts in a new deep fryer and the kids wanted us to see them. In that photo the glaze could be seen glistening on the still-hot doughnuts. They looked so good.
Friday morning Charlyne discovered a plate of doughnuts on our kitchen counter. Lori had stopped by on the way to school to surprise us, and she did.
Early Friday morning, while reading overnight email, drinking coffee and eating a doughnut, the Lord reminded me how restored marriages are like doughnuts. Charlyne and I can write and speak all day about restored marriages, but to you that is like a our picture of a doughnut. Not until you have a restored marriage right under your roof will you be able to really appreciate the miracle you are standing with God and praying for today.
If you will continue to do your part and stand strong, we will continue to do our part and minister until you can proclaim from personal experience that "Prodigals DO come home."
