prayer

Here are some praises/requests that we're putting out there for anyone interested in bringing them to our Heavenly Father with and for us! We love you all!

praises!

* Tim received a long term sub position at Hudsonville High School! It's in an Earth Science class...the area he's certified to teach and the same place he student taught in 2 years ago!! He will begin mid April and will continue to the end of the year! We feel so blessed by this offer yet need to be in prayer about balancing this with working the lawn care business full time!

* Dad and Dottie Keeler blessed us this week by letting us buy their car (2000 Nissan Maxima) for a nice deal! It's wonderful! No more finagling schedules with the truck!

* It's snowing! Although easy to complain about, it means snowplowing and we are grateful for the way God provides for us!

* We were able to celebrate 60 years of marital bliss for Grandpa and Grandma Oosting today!

requests:

* Top Cut's bids are out for this coming lawn care season! Please pray that the Lord will bring back the amount and people/businesses that he wants us to serve!

* Pray for Tim to get caught up on sleep and have energy, if needed, to go out and battle the snow again. As mentioned before, we are grateful for it but wouldn't mind if winter would now leave :)

* Tim and I have an opportunity to be a part of a short term mission trip to Toronto this summer through our church and need discernment about whether or not to go.

* I (Brooke) am really being tested by a girl that I've been mentoring for over 3 years. I need strength, wisdom, desire and perseverance to continue on with the relationship and for the Holy Spirit to respond through me when/if she attacks me verbally and emotionally. Pray that God would bind Satan from her heart, her mouth and her mind. I am planning on spending time with her next Sunday. I also need prayers of perseverance as I am beginning a difficult case at work this week.

* Mom O is entering week 2 in Honduras and things are going really well so far. Pray for continued strength and safety as they are doing physical labor in extreme heat and have projects to complete, hair cuts to give, classes to teach and more love to spread before they come home!

Thank you for caring for us and for praying for us! We value every one of you and pray for you by name often! Keep pressing on!
