I met my husband while I was a missionary in Hong Kong. He had swum out of China after the Cultural Revolution. We have been married 32 years and have four children (2 biological and 2 adopted), ages 22-30. My mother also lives with us (she just turned 90). I am truly a blessed woman.

Follow His example

"Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you might follow in his steps.

“Even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve.”—“Whoever would be first among you must be slave of all.”

"Jesus of Nazareth . . . went about doing good.—Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.

"The meekness and gentleness of Christ.—In humility count others more significant than yourselves.

“Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.”—Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.

"Whoever says he abides in him ought to walk in the same way in which he walked.—Looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God."

1 Pet. 2:21; Mark 10:45; Mark 10:44; Acts 10:38; Gal. 6:2; 2 Cor. 10:1; Phil. 2:3; Luke 23:34; Eph. 4:32; 1 John 2:6; Heb. 12:2
