This is not my life....

Happy Wednesday! It feels good to be back. I think I have spent too many hours listening to lies over the past week and I am done with that. I want to declare this current situation will not be my life and Kelly(sista) gave me some encouraging words yesterday that I would like to share. Let me rephrase.. Kelly wrote down words she was told to give me by God. No hocus pocus here folks. This is what truth is!

Get ready for an exciting life
You've been given a gift that only you can open
I'm always willing to talk to  you
Never underestimate your own abilities. I've given you everything you have-can you trust Me?
Never have I ever stopped loving you.
Never underestimate Me
You give & you give & finally it will be given back to you.

Ok, that might not make any sense to any of you, but those words are dead on to what I was feeling. How are these so spot on.. Well God does know me.. Hello. He knows exactly the struggles and the lies that I was dealing with. And those words are so personal and encouraging to me. Again, He knows sometimes it takes an extra nudge for things to click :) But He loves me any way. That's the amazing thing!

Ok well I do want to share something that happened on Sunday. Addy was writing some words and had asked Chris what one of the words were. He said oh that says farmer and she said what's that? He responded with that is what me and mama are going to be. I about hit the floor. I don't think it registered to him what he had said, but little did he know how powerful those words were! I mean I had been struggling all weekend about his faith. I know I shouldn't have been, but I got caught up in lies and it was easy to see he would never be on the same page. Well God proved me wrong! Just saying. :) I do like when that happens and it was encouraging because, well it was weighing on me so heavy. 

I have to tell something that happened earlier. I was listening to a song on k-love that I really like and I was like wow this song is really good. (yes I talk to myself a lot haha) but then i pulled out a sticky note pad and at the top I had written the name of the song down like who knows how long ago. Ahhhh it was weird but a very good weird haha!
So here it is. I think I might have posted it before, but I couldn't find where. for King and Country-busted heart


Psalm 73:23-24

New International Version (NIV)
23 Yet I am always with you;
    you hold me by my right hand.
24 You guide me with your counsel,
    and afterward you will take me into glory



I just wanted to add those 2 verses in there :)

Anywho, we didn't do much to celebrate our anniversary over the weekend, but we ended up grilling out and relaxing together and that is all I wanted. 

So today is much better and I declare it will continue to get better! I want to start my exciting life that God has planned for us!! :) 

Side note- Addy cut her toe on a lawnmower blade last night. She is doing really good! Thank yo ufor all the prayers!!

  1. I was just reading today about not believing the labels others put on you...so important to resist believing those lies! And I am still traumatized by addy cutting her toe...those screams were so scary!! Glad the patient is doing better now even if aunt mist couldn't be there!
