A Prayer for My Family

Circumcise our hearts, Lord, that we would love you with all that we have! A new heart, O Lord!!

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.

Isaiah 55:10-11 Last week with our kids was brutal.

By the end of the week I was ready to lock our children in their rooms. They were being mean, not wanting to play together, constantly hurting the other one's feelings, saying things I have never...

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 ....
