2007 Has been another year of seeing God"s gifts of
greatness and power. In many ways it has been a year of
challenges and practicing the Holy But. What does that
mean you wonder? It's like this:
"We have this treasure inearthen vessels, so that the
supassing greatness of thepower will be of God and not from
ourselves"; we are afflicted in every way,BUT not crushed;
perplexed, BUT not despairing;
persecuted, BUT not forsaken;
struck down, BUT not destroyed;
2 Corinthians 4:7-9

The Mundy version has looked like this;
Micah moved to Nashville in January. We miss him, BUT in
May he proposed to his beloved Mallory and so we are adding
a new daughter to our family next July!
Caleb is spending most of November and December in Lake
Geneva, Wisconsin, far away from home, family and friends,
BUT he has steady work for six weeks.

Jessica, Andrew and Jack moved from Miami to northern North
Carolina in June. We miss them very much also BUT we are
so thankful for our newest grandson, Austin Richard, born
to them August 22, and for Andrew's successes in being
accepted at several medical schools for the 2008 fall term.

Howard has had continuing struggles with the depression he
has been dealing with, BUT he is much improved. He has also
had many physical issues, the latest being two kidney
stones that had to be blasted But they are gone and he is
recovering well.

Those are some samples of how the Holy But works. The
stuff first and God's truth last. At this Christmas
season, we could come up with a long list of "stuff".
BUT...

"The angel of the Lord said to them,"do not be afraid. I
brig you good news of great joy that will be for all the
people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born
to you; he is Christ the Lord".

At this season of celebrating God's most wonderful gift to
His people, we want to thank you once again for standing
with us in prayer and support, as we seek to fulfill our
calling of"Helping Hearts Heal". May you have a blessed
Christmas,in spite of the "stuff", walking in the But.
In His Tender Care,
Howard and Lucy
