On the Mind

Lord, thank you. Thank you that you saw my afflictions and sought after me, even in the darkest of hours. Thank you that you gave me the courage to leave wordily desires behind and run after what is eternal. Thank you for the grace you showed on the Cross through your Son Jesus, You, three in One, became flesh and lived a life free of sin. You know the struggles that we face, and you know how hard it is to battle. Thank you for your Words, the Words that are truth and help guide us through temptations, anxiety, fear, loneliness...etc, its a never ending list. But You have come to give us an answer, to give us peace, joy, kindness and thankfulness. I pray that everyone would make You their number 1- the reason why they breathe. Lord, You are to be our EVERYTHING and You know our hearts desires and once we seek after You, You will guide us and teach us what is righteous, not what this world says is righteous. I, nor no one is perfect, and to find grace in You gives me comfort.

"Therefore let us draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need." Hebrews 4:16

"For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. It teaches us to say "No" to ungodliness and wordily passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, while we wait for the blessed hope- the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for Himself a people that are His very own, eager to do what is good." Titus 2: 11-14

Thank you Jesus.

My Best Friend is Prego!

It's official one of my best friends in the world is pregnant!! Brittany and Josh have been married almost 2 years (in March) and I am so happy for them. God has blessed them with an amazing gift and responsibility. Brittany has wanted to be a mother ever since I met her. Her nurturing heart is meant to be used for little one(s) :) (and Josh of course!) But the joy that it brings me to see her and the smile on her face is priceless. When she told me I was a hot mess, and I mean excited, overwhelmed, over joyed, surprised and in love. (yes I cried too) I don't even know him or her yet and I love it so much. This little bean that is inside her, oh wait, grape now, :P is so precious to me. I can't wait to meet baby!!

This is how she told the "world"--- So SWEET!

Lord, I pray that you keep the little one healthy and safe. Father, give Brittany and josh the knowledge and comfort it takes to be at this stage in the pregnancy. I know that you are all mighty and have every ounce of this child in your hands. You formed baby before the world began, set a name for baby, and loved baby and I pray that growing up baby will love you. What a lucky one to have them as parents, I pray you continue to ministry in their lives and get them ready for the many fun and hard adventures ahead. In Jesus name, Amen.
