When You Wait on the Lord.......

.......it's always worth it.


It is with rejoicing hearts that we share with you the news of Esther's courtship with Micah Nelson. Micah sought Dad's permission and blessing before asking Esther to court him on May 20th. God had already been moving in Esther's heart, awakening an interest towards Micah and she was confident that the Lord was directing them to begin a relationship together.


We realize that everyone's definition of courtship is different, but they define their courtship as a time of confirmation of the Lord's leading and direction, with the intent of marriage. With the blessing of both sets of parents they are seeking the Lord's will and enjoying this precious season of falling in love.


We look forward to sharing the whole story with you soon............after these two settle back down from cloud 9 to help us record all the details!!


Let's say it together.................awwwwwww!!!! :)
