Believing
And just as Moses
lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up,
that whosoever believes in him may have eternal life. For God so loved the world
that he gave his only son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish
but may have eternal life...those who do what is true come to the light, so that
it may be clearly seen that their deeds have been done in
God.

depth of your belief
and the strength of your
conviction
determines the power of your

Junna (Robin's
daughter) came to visit from Japan!!!
Junna at the
airport!!!
At the Butterfly Pavilion
we saw many little critters besides butterflies.
See the
butterfly?
We were there just in
time for the butterfly release.
Caught!
David (who is
English) and Danna invited us to an informal
Easter High Tea at
their home.
Wonderful!!!
They also gave Junna a
short lesson in glass cutting.
Vicki and Junna by the
covered bridge in Vail.
You can barely see the
clock tower in the background
in front of the ski
slope.
Alas. Not much
snow.
Lunch at Sweet
Basil's.
Yes, she ate every
bite!

Junna
We had to bid her
farewell at the airport, after a wonderful visit!!!
Junna is off to visit more
of her American relatives before she starts in April
at
ICU, the International
Christian University in Tokyo.
There are two ways to slide
easily through life:
to believe everything or to
doubt everything;
both ways save us from
thinking.

6Then the Lord sent poisonous
serpents among the people, and they bit the people, so that many Israelites
died. 7The people came to Moses and
said, “We have sinned by speaking against the Lord and
against you; pray to the Lord to take away the serpents
from us.” So Moses prayed for the people. 8And the Lord said to Moses,
“Make a poisonous serpent, and set it on a pole; and everyone who is bitten
shall look at it and live.” 9So Moses
made a serpent of bronze, and put it upon a pole; and whenever a serpent bit
someone, that person would look at the serpent of bronze and live.
