Are You Just Going Through The Motions? or Are You Giving It Your All?




Please turn off my player on the side and listen carefully to the words of this song. It is easy to get caught up in life and just go through the motions. But we are called to give it ALL to the Lord! So are you? I am trying to make that my focus in all I do and in all I say. I still fall but I get back up and try again. I hope you will too!

Land for Sale: Laying it all down


If you read the post below you will understand this post. If you haven't gotten a chance to read it, when you have time I hope you will.


As difficult as this is for us, we do it in obedience and with total faith that God’s Will, not ours, will be done. We are placing the land we purchased in Westcliffe, CO up for sale. We owe most of what we purchased it for. The main reason we are putting it up for sale is our call to full time service through Mission Arlington and where ever the Lord may lead us to go after that. John cannot quit his job with debt hanging over our heads. We want to surrender it all to Him. There is a link I at the bottom of this that has two web pages full of wonderful photo’s of the land. You will see in those photos how much we love it there. The children were a bit upset when we told them what we were doing. But they would rather their dad be home and healthy instead of at work all the time with failing health. And they have grown up with us serving a wonderful and faithful God and understand that He knows what is best for us. The money we are asking will go towards paying off the debt on the land, paying off the rest of our debt with the exception of the house and any extra will go towards any needs we might have that we won’t be able to afford to pay for once John turns in his resignation. Please keep us in your prayers as we step out in faith and trust that God is going to take care of our needs, including medical needs since we will not have insurance after that point. The sooner we sell the land the sooner he can resign. Our goal is mid summer but if it was now that would be even better! He is so tired and ill from his stressful night position. And he has so many wonderful visions of the service that he will lead us in once his time is freed to do so. It is exciting to hear him talk about it. And at the same time he wonders how quickly it will actually happen.

If you will please pass on this information about the land for sale to anyone you might know and even church groups. This is being done out of a willingness to lay it all down for the Lord and His work. Not for selfish gain. As full time missionaries we ask for your support and prayers.

In His Love and Service,
John and Terri Harr
