My Wilmington Vacation...

I have really enjoyed my trip home to Wilmington. It is so nice to come down and just take my time visiting and not have to rush. I am thankful that James had a great time. Even though it has been wonderful, I am ready to get home. I miss my husband, who has been home working and taking care of the animals. He deserves a vacation now.

As always, I am so thankful to the Lord for all of his many blessings. I pray that he blesses each and everyone of my friends as well.

My Prayer...

Today my prayer is for those in pain. Life can seem so overwhelming and hard to understand. My prayer is that the Lord will comfort those who need him. Also that those in need open up to him an allow him to take the pain away. I have learned that the only way that I get over my pain is to give it over to the Lord. I empty myself to him. He is my strength and my comfort. Without him, I am truly nothing.

Thank you Lord for all that you do for my. Your blessings cannot be counted. Your comfort cannot be matched. You LOVE cannot be measured. I pray blessings on all of my family and friends. I pray that you continue to work in me. I thank you that you gave your wonderful, perfect Son for me. Amen

Blessing...

The Lord has blessed me with a wonderful son. I am so glad that he has such a tender heart, he always cares about others. He has his moments, as do we all, but he is a very loving child. I pray the Lord will continue to work in his life. I pray that James will always remember that the Lord is there for him and is the one who really controls it all.

Twilight...

I finally watched Twilight and now I'm hooked. I'm going to the library today to get the first book and start the series. I enjoy a good story and this seems like it has a lot to it. We'll see how itt goes.

New Oportunities...

The Lord continues to surprise me. Just when I think I know what's going on, he shows me something new. I am thankful for the new oportunity he has laid before me. He always knows what is best. When He is involved, the pieces just seem to fall into place.

My continuous struggle...

It is so easy to allow yourself be let down by those around you. Maybe my problem is I tend to take things more personal than I should. I pray that the Lord will continue to work on my spirit and I will be able to overlook how others act and focus on myself an my actions. I don't want to be one of those people who grows old with a hard heart. I will continue to try each day to rely on the Lord and know that is enough.

My Path Back to Me...

Finally, I am starting to feel like myself again. After being sick for almost three months, I have some of my energy back. I have lost 10 lbs so far since I've been dieting and it feels great. I hope to continue on my way back to the old me. I want to make sure I can keep up with James and be an active mom. I don't want to look back and say "I wish I had done...". I am thankful to the Lord for helping me day by day.
