Memories

I can say since we have lived here in Texas our "fun" memories are very few and far in between.. As I sit here and try to think of any memories we(as a whole family) have had they are few.. When we first moved here my mother came for a visit and took us all to Sea World, Space Center, and to the beach.(all of us together) I,myself, with the children have done some fun things, like take the children to the beach and to the Natural Science museum with my sister, but very few times with all of us together. Those are the memories that stick most with children.. the ones where mom,dad, and them are there enjoying life. Last night was one of those VERY rare moments for us.. We went to the MLS Allstar game against Manchester United. Let me tell you my children were in there own man-made heaven.

Have you withdrawn your love?

These past two weeks I have been seeking Him. Wondering where He was in my heart. Wondering why I "feel" so distant from him. And I have come to realize that I have withdrawn my heart, my love from Him. He has not gone any where. He is here, walking beside me waiting for me to see, what I had done. Confession time: I had withdrawn my heart from Him because he had not blessed me with another child. I go from being angry, to not understanding why this one prayer, which is in His Character.. (because He only answers prayers that are  in His Character- example if you pray make me rich (monetarily)Lord- he most likely will not do that because things of this world are  not important to Him) He has not answered. Does He even hear me? There I have said it. I am a brat.. a spoiled selfish, brat! In need of His forgiveness, and in need of His love! How many of you have withdrawn your love? It could be from a loved one, not just the Lord. Those we are closes to tend to hurt us the most,

I am alive and well...

Hello dear blogger friends.. I know things have been pretty quiet on here. Moving my blog to my own domain has left my blog kind of quiet. Not as many followers and commenters left me kind of unmotivated. I have lots of things on my heart lately, some things I have thought about blogging about. But life and responsibilities have kept me from sitting down and actually blogging.  By the time I actually have time- I forget what I was going to say. Has anyone had that problem? The Lord has been laying lots of things heavy on my heart. Most of all is prayer.. How to pray has been my number one question... How do we know that Our heavenly Father hears our prayers? I know that sometimes answered prayer is obvious.. but what about prayers that are not so obvious.( Like for lost souls. ) What about prayers  you pray of protection and guidance for people you know are not believers, does He hears those prayers?? I have not recieved answers to these questions(except one how to pray) but I am still

Returning...

June 24,2010 Well we are home. The trip home went so much smoother than the trip there. The skies were bright blue- hardly any turbulence. Arriving at the airport went pretty smooth. We were leaving around the same time as my sister, so we were able to spend a little more time together. (though it was hard to say good bye) Since arriving I have no desires to do anything. My heart is aching ,of course, to be back in that beautiful country. The simplicity of life there, the non congestion, purity in the air and the many friends makes me realize for the first time that I do have a place in my heart I call home. (Texas is not it) I am grateful to the Lord for providing. For a place to lay my head, for a roof over our heads, and for a job for my beloved. As we all know we are to be thankful always! Life is so much more than survival. It is ministry doing the work of the Lord in all things. Here I am missing something..(have not quite figured out what that something is) but none the less I a
