I was blocked...

from by blog page for a couple of days & that was...not so good...to say the least. I really enjoy blogging and when I feel like I "need" to and can't...it's very frustrating to say the very least. So there's a lot that has happened and that is about to happen so I just want to give an update. I gave up on the "short" because...well it's not short. And I would like to remain honest as I blog about what is going on in my said life. Last week I finally gave up my need for controlling the finances over to God. Don't you know that as soon as I did...we once again had $0 in the account...and that is not figurative either...I truly had no money...and I have many bills to pay. Then Mike's car stopped working yesterday!! Yikes! So I just threw up my hands and said..."It's all yours God. I have no control.". He really is in control. Needless to say, our needs have been met and are still being met. I realized that I was and I am u...

Mid Week Rush...

is upon me. Thomas was home sick for the past two days, but today it's "game on" as we get back up and into the routine of our lives. We started the day off with breakfast at church with some of our youth group as we got ready for "See You At The Pole". I came into work & a few of our youth called into the station to give the number of people who came to the pole to pray. Some read scripture and some sang songs, but all prayed before heading into school for the day. I'm very proud of my daughter, she made the decision to get up early for the breakfast and to stand firm in her faith and went to the pole. She is really growing in the Lord, Jesus, and I am blessed to be her mom. So this evening I'm going to try to be "SuperMom" as I get the boys to football and get Nichole and myself to Karate...should prove to be an interesting day. ~Peace & Blessings~ Jen

I had the pleasure of hearing Group 1 Crew perform at Momentum 2010 just a couple of weeks ago. They are a talented young group full of energy and love of Jesus. If you like a mix of rock, rap, soul and a bit of funk then you'll love Group 1 Crew, "Outta Space Love".

Just a quick...

blurb...I love photobucket.com! I love how they are so current and can link straight to my favorite pages! I am currently running my son's birthday party pictures! What a milestone...he is 10 years old today. Today I gave birth to my son, my first born son. What a blessing he is in my life and I know that God has great plans for him. I hope you enjoy the pictures as much as I enjoyed taking them. Happy Birthday Thomas...I love you. ~Peace & Blessings~ Jen

Reflecting on...

the events of the past week. It was another wonderful experience at Momentum and I met some really great people that have a heart for Jesus. It is so awesome to meet those that you'll be spending eternity with. When I got back home Saturday evening it was wonderful to see my children and their faces just light up when they saw me! There is nothing quite like the love of a child. After a very busy Sunday, my daughter was ready for bed and I knew that she was still not feeling well. She had been picked up from school on Friday by my mom. I took her to the doctor Monday and she has a sinus infection. I remember how a sinus infection feels...they hurt, bad. She is still resting. I hate that I'm missing work two days in a row, but I know that I need to be home for her and with her. So today I have already cleaned up the kitchen, set the tea and got about half my work done. The boys have football practice again tonight, and I know that they are going to be worn out after two ...

Gleaning from others...

is wise. So what is gleaning you ask? Gleaning, 1. To gather grain or other produce left by reapers. 2. To gather information or material bit by bit. Gleaning is biblical. The story of Ruth is a great example of why God calls us to glean and allow those to glean the fields. We all have different spiritual gifts and those who seek wisdom are able to pass along that wisdom without realizing it by letting those who are learning of wisdom to glean from them. I was reminded of this when I read Proverbs 8 this morning and then the blog I read when I was finished reading Proverbs. God is gracious in answering prayer and when we pray for wisdom, he does allow us to see with eyes wide open. I'm thankful that I am able to glean wisdom from He who created wisdom and I pray that I am able to pass that along to you as we travel this journey together. You are welcome to glean in my field. ~Peace & Blessings~ Jen

Have you...

ever felt like you were between a rock and a hard place? Be honest, I'm sure that you have felt that way more than once. I have been feeling like that for the past week, only this time my rock is Christ and the hard place is what I see in front of me. I am still torn between what I know is true & what I see in front of me. As a human being sometimes it's hard to be...I always want to do. I have to remember that the doing is God's part, not mine...I'm suppose to be being and at times that is very hard to do. So I prayed this morning to be once again used & for God to search my heart. That is a very hard prayer to pray. Am I really ready to be exposed and changed? I think I am and it is my prayer that I can rely on the truth of the Scripture to know that no matter what is going on in this world that God is in complete control. So here's what my prayer is today. Psalm 18:2, The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take...

Praise, Praise, Praise...

is on my mind! I have been praising God for the past hour in an overflowing and overwhelming way. I have to tell you though that this has been a very hard week this week & so to come to share w/ you the praise I have right now I should back track on this weeks events. MONDAY: End of the month calling & I am stressing out! I don't feel like I am going to get everything done. And I go out of town next week!!! OK...Jennifer...breathe. I get on my knees and pray TUESDAY: Last day of the month and I am feeling desperate...things are not right in my spirit. I am praying for God to use me and don't you know I blow it within the first 2 hours of even being awake! That crushed my spirit & I was cut to the quick with how things went between me and my friend. I grieved and prayed all day Tuesday & even when I took the boys to practice...I was still feeling like I messed up. Through God's great presence I felt comfort in knowing that I was forgiven WEDNESDAY: ...
