One of our favorite wedding gifts we were given was a couple's devotional Bible from Grandma Judy. We were reading today, and Josh showed me one of his favorite verses that totally relates to the experiences we will be having in Newtok:
"Now then get your equipment - your quiver and bow - and go out to the open country to hunt some wild game for me. Prepare me the kind of tasty food I like and bring it to me to eat, so that I may give you my blessing before I die."
-Genesis 27:3-4
I know this is our first post, and we have not yet discussed the kind of lifestyle Josh & I will be living nor have we explained anything about Newtok - this will happen soon... promise! - but this is exactly why I feel comfortable moving to rural Alaska with this man. (Among other reasons haha.)
Love the new Bible
Can't wait to read and share in your journey. So excited and happy for you two!
