Here is an Amazing Message. Hopefully it will work.

One of the questions that always seems to ring in my head with regard to Western Christianity is why is it so hard to distinguish the believers from the non believers? This message goes right at that issue and is very compelling. This is just part 1, I will post the other parts in coming days. I would love to hear comments about this.

God bless,

Marc

Taking In The Scenery

This morning I went out for a run and bike ride (no, I'm not training for a biathlon, just trying to get my fat but in shape) and the scenery was amazing. Yesterday I mentioned how I would miss it so I'm really trying to take it in as much as possible. Today the air is pretty clear so you can really see the western highlands including Ben Ledi, Ben Lomond, Ben Ann which are about 20 miles to the west of Bridge of Allan.
I am looking back at the weather in Pa with envy though as it would be nice to experience some warm weather and an occasional severe thunderstorm. Today our weather here is 55 and mostly cloudy. I keep forgetting it's late May because we still have the heat on and you have to wear a jacket outside which hardly ever happens this time of year in Pa. Like I've said many times before, the weather here is November with the occasional glimpse of May. May didn't show up this year however as the whole month has been cooler than average. This of course has drawn a loud silence from the global warming alarmists which is interesting because just last month they were easy to hear everywhere because April in GB was supposedly the hottest on record. I love how they use the word 'hot' here when it's like 73.
Speaking of weather (one of my favorite topics) I have been trying to post this cool weather/ end times video from youtube on here and it just won't let me do it. If anyone has any advise one this I'm all ears. I did everything they told me and I keep getting an error script.

Anyway, that's enough from me for one day. All three of you can now resume reading after passing out from the shock of seeing posts on two consecutive days. Shall we go for three? Stay tuned.
God bless,
Marc

May Greetings from Bonnie Scotland

I say 'May' greetings because I believe this is the first May post which is pretty bad. Sorry to all three of you who read this that we've been slacking lately.
One of the reasons for this as we are in the preparation stage of moving back to the states. Again, we are targeting late July as our re-entry time but nothing is booked yet. We still need to book our shipping company which has turned into a major task as we've been shocked at the cost. The price has literally doubled since we came over so we are shopping around and getting quotes from a bunch of different companies. Once we get that nailed down we can then look at flights.

Since our departure is about 2 months away, the reality is really beginning to settle in and to be honest, I (Marc) am getting a bit sad to leave this place. I mean, every day we drive past breathtaking scenery we just aren't going to see in Lancaster county if you know what I mean. I will also miss living in a town where we can walk to just about everything including school, grocery store, library, Liam's soccer practice, post office etc. It is a great place to live and raise kids but it does have its drawbacks as well. At the end of the day though it's not about any of that, it's about being obedient to what God has called us to do and we feel strongly that God has indeed called us back to Pa, for now at least.
So, we will try and keep up with the blog the best we can so all three of you will up on what's happening. Oh sorry, did I mention that only three people read this blog before?

More soon,

Marc
