Anniversary but most of all restoration

This past Saturday Samuel and I celebrated our 17th anniversary. It started out being a very quiet day, but then it got busy with things of the church. We only had Maria, Joey and Noah- but they had a youth day at church so we took them.

We played kickball with the youth and parents-which was so much fun! It made me realize that there are muscles I have not used in a while.(ha-ha) We stayed at the church all day fellowshipping, talking and laughing with the families.

Time flew before we knew it was 7:30pm. Samuel and I looked at each other wondering if it was even worth trying to go out to eat at that time. We ended up going to this little Mexican restaurant in a small town that is next to our town. It was ok. I am not a big fan of Mexican. I wanted the fried avocado though.

On Sunday- we went to church and both morning and evening service were so powerful. The Holy Ghost was present! It was so strong that there were things He wanted me to share and shed from the past with Samuel. So that evening was a time of sharing, and confessing. It brought liberation to my soul but it pained me to see the pain in my beloved’s eyes,as I was obedient to the Lord. The devils plans in my life have been defeated. I can stand and say that through the power and blood of Jesus I am cleansed and restored a new! May the Lord lead and guide and give my beloved and I strength to stand on HIS foundation of Rock and not in the sand. As the winds of life blow- we will stand assured that we will not fall because our foundation is not our own but Christ’s!!!

I love you my wonderful, strong, Godly Man of God! You are truly the one God intended for me and for the first time- I know that so deep within me!!!  Thank you for 18 wonderful years, 17 of them as one! May our Lord reign within our hearts and souls, so that we can be molded and shaped into who HE wants us to be!

To God be the Glory

Assignment - This week I would like you to post any prayer requests you have. What is going on in your life that you need prayer warriors for? When this assignment came through I was going to share  prayer request for a much needed rental home, and new job for my beloved, but in a blink of an eye those things were no longer a concern. A truly serious, and sobering matter occurred. I was not sure how to share with all of you this matter- and how desperate I was. I was not sure how to even lift my eyes towards heaven for fear that he would not hear me, or not even want what I was wanting.  I was not sure I could handle a loss of my child. My baby- my eldest- He is 18 years old, 6 days ago he started to develop these sharp pains that would shoot to the back of his eyes. At first he described them as a headache, but he realized it was not headache, and started to complain more of the pain, and stated that pain relievers were not working. I made a doctors appointment. When the do...

Traditions…

At this time of the year everyone is filled with traditions. Things they do every year  to prepare their hearts to celebrate the greatest, and truest meaning of this season- celebrating the Birth of our Savior. We are no exception.. we started this tradition last year. Our hearts were to focus ourselves completely on what we are celebrating and why we are celebrating it so every evening, we light these candles…   gather around the table to read the scripture for the night, we sing the corresponding carol/hymn, then daddy reads a story. The story normally goes with which every figure we must pull and set up for our nativity scene. So far this is what we have out: The Donkey was first- because he carried Mary to Bethlehem, then the cow- was probably in the stable, the sheep were probably brought by the Shepherds who came to see the Savior, and then the Shepherd. This scene is such a humbling scene, one that reminds us that our Lord did not arrive in a mansion, or place b...
