Wait Patiently!

Here is my lovely mom (left – Kessela Mengistu) and her lovely sister (in the middle – Amarech Mengistu). This picture was taken on the same day yesterday’s picture was taken.

So, I have to take two pictures to get them all.

With A Promise!

I traveled to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia to celebrate last Easter with my parents. I had a wonderful time with both my parents.

“Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a pole.”” (Galatians 3:13)
 
Submission is a wonderful gift God gave to all wives; but it is only wonderful when it is given to a loving husband and when it comes out of a godly wife. ///
