Moriah’s Love Language

This week I gave Moriah the online 5 Love Languages Test.  Her answers surprised me at first.  She was filtering everything through what she would like to hear from her friends and this was the outcome:



But when I told her to add “from Mom and Dad” to each question the outcome changed:


Moriah LOVES giving gifts and receiving gifts. This past Christmas she spent her own money and bought gifts for her Dad & me, her teachers, & friends.  She loves to give! How can I bless her without breaking my bank account? 
* I can let her choose the dessert to bring home to everyone 
* Gum & mints are Moriah’s favorite
When I see something that she needs, present it to her like a special gift
* Write her notes on her mirror or around her room

Because she feels loved through quality time:
* Sit down and watch a show with her
* Take her to the store with me
* Play a game with her


Father, help me to love Moriah in the way she needs love. You know her inside and out. Thank you that you’re the one leading, guiding, and teaching my beautiful daughter!

20 Weeks

Today marks 20 weeks of pregnancy with baby #6. I am so beyond thankful for how good I’ve been feeling & the blessing of this pregnancy. I continue to feel good enough to run 4.5 miles & workout few days a week. I’m enjoying, for the most part, my pregnant body & the changes that come with it.  Thank you, Jesus...I really can’t say thank you enough.  I’ve been on the other side of pregnancy with much difficulty & I’m so thankful for every day that I feel good! In May I was sick in bed with Strep throat and in a prayer conversation with the Lord felt that I heard Him tell me why I was hesitant to have any more kids. “It’s because you don’t trust me.” When I came to term with the truth of that statement, I was ready for another baby. There were so many different levels of fear in this area that I had to surrender to Jesus. What about my horrible hormones, the lack of energy due to exhaustion & weight gain, Sciatica problems, what about finances, a new van? Th...

A Dwelling Place

This morning I woke up to a sick baby boy.  After sending Isaiah and Moriah to Sunday School, I sat down to hear from the Lord until the Radiate Service started.  Consumed by the thought that we may all be sick for Christmas, I looked up "no more sickness" in my online concordance.  What came up was a message of hope for me and I pray  it brings you hope as well ... Revelation 21:3-8-   And I heard a loud voice from the throne, saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is among men, and He will dwell among them , and they shall be His people, and God Himself will be among them ,   and He will wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there will no longer be  any  death; there will no longer be  any  mourning, or crying, or pain; the first things have passed away.” Exodus 25:8  "Then have them make a sanctuary for me, and I will dwell among them . Exodus 29:45  Then I will dwell among the Israelites and be their God ....

Quote of the Week

On Sunday afternoon I had the kids doing some chores to get ready to leave for Arizona. Zeke, my eight year old, said to me, “Mom, could you write down a list for me so that I can cross things off?” Haha! I love it, a child after my own heart. Our, at least another one that I’ve passed my sickness down to!  Thank you, Jesus, for these glimpses that you’re helping me raise my kids to be competent adults. Momming with Sparkle,  Heather
