Learning to Rely on God in all situations

Sometimes life can be just a bit overwhelming, but even so God is ALWAYS THERE! In the midst of a storm, He is right there keeping us safe. Things are going a bit stressed at our church right now and that is hard for me to take. But I keep praying and trusting God that He will guide us through this storm as well. I have deep roots in this church. My kids were baptized there, I was baptized there, and recently my 4 year old grand daughter was. My husband and I were remarried there, then first my daughter and then my son were also married there. At times I wonder just why God keeps me there. Don't get me wrong, I love my church family, I just wish that some of our church family had a little more compassion and understanding. I do not know or understand what God is trying or is doing at our church. All I can do is keep praying and hope that we can have victory through this storm!

New beginnings!

After a little over a year with my sister living with us. She recently was able to get back on her feet and get a job, car and a house. So she just moved out on my birthday. It's kinda weird that I didn't expect to miss her so much, but I actually do. Although it is nice to have my guest room back and be able to spread out again. Now that that part of my life's chapter is closed I am planning on putting a little more focus on me. I plan on trying to again, get back on my watching my calories and exercising as much as possible. I figure at this point anything improvement is exactly that...and improvement and progress forward. So here's to new beginnings and changes!

Life Happenings

Well I did this during the last year of my oldest sisters life. So thought I would see if I wanted to blog again. My daughter inspired me to blog again. Although she is so much better at writing, I am going to look at this as a place I can put into words things that are going on in my life. Since January 2008 my life has been changing drastically. Some really good...Grand babies!!! Some really bad...death of my oldest sister, then my husbands uncle, my uncle and we just lost his step dad. We are now expecting our third grand child. My life is full and very busy!! I feel as though I am at a pivotal point in my life right now and know that things that have been getting in my way are back where they need to be. Behind me...I am going forward and seeing where this new journey in my life will lead me. Things are changing all around me right now. Guess we will see where that leads me!
