Testimony
Milestones
“We have grown up together through marriage and in
following Christ. We have always seen Him as the Head of
our family. Jesus is the third strand in the Kroeger cord.
Our story is His story”
- Nancy Kroeger -
E
dith Schaeffer’s writings and talks have had
a great influence on me. Her book, “The Hidden Art of Homemaking” (Tyndale Publishing,
1985) led me to use creativity in establishing our
home, but also in food, hospitality and in raising
children. Edith Schaeffer once spoke on being
able to see the blessings of God, we have to look
back in our lives and see the milestones we have
passed. So here are a few of ours.
A recent discussion between family members proved that, since 9 September 1972, the
Kroeger’s have moved twenty-five times. Some
places were exotic for us, like Belgium and Paris.
And some pretty mundane, like Kansas. But in
moving to Australia in 1986, we lived knowing
that a Sovereign Lord was guiding us, proceeding
before us and had a plan for our lives as His servants in ministry.
Jeremiah 29:11
“For I know the plans
I have for you,” declares
the Lord, “plans to prosper
you and not to harm you,
plans to give you hope and
a future”.
