We were graced with an incredible conference this past weekend by Richard Blackaby, Henry Blackaby’s son about the book he wrote, The Seasons of God. The Lord spoke to us through him about a variety of different areas…and as Dr. Blackaby said, “this is not supposed to be enjoyable.” It wasn’t. But it was purposeful. […]
This Little Airplane is getting ready to take off on the Tarmac!!!
This big boy is learning so many important life…and flying skills right now! He’s almost ready to take off. We can feel it! He is going through a major transition right now. Inwardly, he is fighting this step. I am struggling to understand what he is going through. He is longing for more independence…but there […]
His nature to Bless: 7 beautiful years!!!
The other week, Brian and I celebrated 7 beautiful years together!!! It was a wonderful date at a Korean restaurant nearby. Our sweet babysitter, Grace, watched the kids and they had a wonderful time. We talked a lot about the things that were heavy on our minds and ate yummy spicy food 🙂 . We […]
“In Him I live and move and have my being.”
-Acts 17:28 This verse has been so precious to me, so meaningful. I think this is my pregnancy verse 🙂 I have found that He is my life, He is my energy, He directs my path each day, He inspires me, focuses me, counsels me, heals me, encourages me…He is my LIFE in every way. […]
~The Journey ~
Sometimes, it feels that dreams are so far in the distance…the steps that are taken seem to be in the wrong direction toward that journey. But, God works in different ways than our minds can fathom. He knows our hearts and leads us on this path, this journey…but the steps aren’t always in a linear […]
Resiliency
He speaks of resiliency to us, during this season of sickness for me and long hours of studying and classes for Brian. So much teaching, so much counsel to our hearts. “Rely on my strength. Be perseverant. Know without a doubt that joy is coming. Seek those natural boundaries; be self aware to know what […]
His Preparation for Her…
We have just 3 months to go now until Emma Faith is in our arms!!! I get so excited to see all the ways the Lord has prepared our family for her already. Lately, though, I am feeling a bit anxious! ONLY 3 more months to go! I have so much to do… (At least […]
Budding Beauties….
I love Spring. I love going on nature walks with my kiddies…even if it does take an hour to walk just a few meters down the road… 🙂 I love seeing the budding beauties around me–little blossoms sprouting from the ground and trees, they are everywhere now with our warmer weather. I cherish pointing them […]
A New Day, A New Beginning…the wonderful promises fulfilled in Easter!!!
This Easter was really wonderful for our family. The Lord taught each of us something special this Easter. The Lord gave me a new beginning…and taught me something so very important so deep down in my heart. Last week, I caught the flu bug and was really sick for about 3-4 days. It started the […]
My little instruments of refinement :-)
My kids have really been my instruments of refinement here so far…they are pressing me constantly into the unknown in parenting…and occasionally way past my limits. As I ran to the Lord the other day when they had completely exhausted my resources and mental energy…He told me 3 things: 1) Do not try to problem […]
