I'm sorry...

that I have not blogged in almost a week, but this past week has just gone by in a blur and before I knew it...it was the next day. Just to recap...because I'm very tired...here's what happen...well the high point.







Mike went fishing last weekend & came home with fresh caught Mahi & Wahoo!! I'm so glad that he had a chance to get away and go fishing! While he was gone...I got the house put back together...more of that later in the blog.

Relay for Life was Friday...it was great. We as a whole did not raised the as much as we would have like...but you know what...every dollar raised is what is needed. I was able to co-emcee with Mark from the Fox. It was a lot of fun & I really enjoyed myself. I hope to do that again. Mind you it was not all great (the boys were bored and tired & I couldn't take them around), but it was still great...know what I mean











Mike's birthday was Saturday...now that was a lot of fun! Oh yeah...in case I didn't blog about it...my home is now back in order!!!! We have a family room again & it was so much fun having friends over. We got a bounce house for the kids and they really enjoyed that...it was a present for Mike (to keep the kids happy) and we all enjoyed food and friendship!







Sunday was not such a good day...Everyone was tired and Logan was not feeling good at all. I think we overdid his weekend...so we tried to take it easy...we ended up shopping and going out as a family for dinner. Logan really didn't like it at all, but that is what we did.

Want to give quick praise Praise PRAISE...We have been blessed with 2 twin beds that the boys are now sleeping on...the carpet is paid for and installed, we have a nice bookshelf and entertainment center that is in the family room and an entertainment tent that is put up outside (all given) and a practiacally brand new grill (again given)!!! Many many Praises to God for the gifts given and allowing us to get our house in order...and He has continued to help heal relationships in my life...I am so thankful for all the prayers.

OK...I'm wrapping this one up...

~Peace & Blessings~

When you ask...

Jesus to use you, be ready! I knew when I completely surrendered my life to Christ that it would be a challenge and not easy. (Romans 7:25) Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself in my mind am a slave to God’s law, but in my sinful nature[a] a slave to the law of sin. I honestly thought that I had no comfort zone, but it seems that every time I get "comfortable", God changes the direction in which I am going or He intercedes personally by allowing me to encounter a life that is going through a struggle, and it "interferes" with "my life". So I have come to the understanding I will never be comfortable, and I am becoming OK with that. I have also come to realize that if I am in a state of being comfortable, then I am not growing spiritually. (Psalm 119:2) Blessed are those who keep his statutes and seek him with all their heart Last night during Bible study as we were going over the passage in Ephesians 4,...

Discipline In Discipleship

Accepting Jesus Christ as Savior is easy. We learn at a young age that Jesus is knocking at our hearts and is asking to enter in. We sing songs of God's love. We so very quickly accept God's forgiveness when we sin. We can justify our actions through Jesus loving us as we are. Following Jesus as Master and Teacher is hard. Again, we learn at a young age that the world is a cold, cruel place. We view hatred on TV and social media. To forgive when we have been wronged is almost impossible. To put another person's needs before ours is practically unheard of. To understand someone else's actions takes too much effort. Jesus never said being a follower would be easy. As a matter of fact, he said that it would be a narrow road that few would be able to travel. "S o in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you,   for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.  “Enter through the narrow gate.  For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to...

Inside Outside

Why do we view sins as not so bad, bad, and really bad? I have been thinking a lot about this over the past week. Isn't sin, sin? Are we to judge as God judges? God's word says; "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." -Romans 3:23 My sins, and they are many, are not better or worse than yours or your neighbors - or anyone else's for that matter. So who are we to pass judgement on another? Why spew contentment and hate when we know what another person's sin is? Isn't God's forgiveness and love for them just as much as it is for us? There is no "them" and "us" in the eyes of God so we need to stop dividing people up into these two categories. " Dear friends, let us love one another,  for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God  and knows God.   Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.   This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son  into the wor...
