Johanson Family Memories ~ 2011

2011 Family Prayer Verse: Philippians 3:7-8
"But whatever was to my profit I now consider loss for the sake of CHRIST. What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing CHRIST JESUS my LORD, for whose sake I have lost all things."


O Lord, may we as a family consider
EVERYTHING a loss compared to knowing YOU!!!

the slide...which didn't work too well :)

We are looking forward to all that Jesus has in 2012.
His ways are BEST and He is above all, over all and in all!


Our Prayer Verse for 2012 is Acts 20:24

"I consider my life worth nothing to me, if only I may finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me -
the task of testifying to the gospel of God's grace."

Dear Jesus, may we as a family consider our lives worth nothing to us. By Your grace, may we run this earthly race well and complete the task You have given to us as Christians - to tell of YOUR GRACE!!!
In Jesus' Name we ask this, Amen
