Juli Houck blessed so many people's lives because of how she lived her's. She had saturated her mind, her days and all of her life with the Word of God, and she lived her life accordingly. Any time that we would see each other, Juli would give out those beautiful nuggets of truth from the Word of God. She didn't just say it, she lived it. Isaiah 52:7 comes to mind every time I think about Juli Houck, "How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him who brings good tidings, who publishes peace, who brings tidings of good, who publishes salvation, who says to Zion, Your God reigns!" Where ever Juli's beautiful feet would bring her,if it were in the grocery store, out in public, or in the privacy of her home she would proclaim that her God Reigns!
Oh Dear Lord, thank you for your wonderful gift of Juli Houck. Thank you for allow me to see your faithfulness through her wonderful husband, Bill. When I think of Bill Houck, I think of what great love, steadfast devotion, commitment, care and tenderness that he poured out on his, Juli. What a beautiful testimony of a marriage of two people who haven't just talk the talk, but have really walked out their faith when it has been most difficult! Let Your Presence, Dear Lord, gird Bill up, for you are the Glory and the lifter of his head.
So to you Juli, I would say, Thank you for bringing the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ! Thank you for fighting the good fight, for running the race and finishing well! All who knew you, have, and will continue to be blessed, because Jesus Christ, the hope of Glory, has been lifted up in your life and death! You have, and will continue to be, a blessing, to everyone who knew you, because God isn't finished with the work He started in and through you. Let all who knew you,Juli, take heed in the truth you have spoken and lived in your life. You and Bill through the most difficult of times, have shown us, True Victorious Living! Juli, You and Bill are never ending blessings! It has been an honor to know you!
I love you! In Christ, Jill Weber
