What can I do

Happy Wonderful Friday! I had a great day yesterday. I was praying Wednesday night over a situation at Los Links and God totally took control and handled that situation. Awesome! That makes for a great day always! Then on the way home I was behind a tractor. I did not care that i was going 10 mph. I was excited. It was like I was able to slow down and look around. It was nice. Addy was excited because we saw the one in front and then another in the field. She said mama you want one like that. HAHA It was sweet, but very true :)

Hope you can see the tractor in front of the truck
It is nice to slow down. Then we(Chris) made rows in a part of the garden and WE GOT OUT ONIONS IN! Haha! So excited to know that one item is planted. 
The first row to the left is onions! yippee and this is not the entire garden but only a corner area. 

This morning was ... not so good. Addy had a melt down over some band aids.. It's true. So please pray for us while we continue to try to discipline her correctly. 

The day has gotten better. I did not want that incident to damper this beautiful day God has given me.
That is so true! I forgot I had that until a few minutes ago. So that is perfect!

I also receive the Joel & Victoria O'steen daily devotionals each morning. Today was very good. This is a little bit of what was said

"Always remember, you have been made in the image of Almighty God. God did not make any mistakes. You are the perfect size. You have the right personality, the right gifts, the right looks, the right skin color. You are not an accident. God designed you precisely for the race that is laid out for you. You are fully equipped for this life, and His mercy is greater than any mistake you could make. Embrace the truth and the victory He has in store for your future!"

I thought those were really good words. What is neat to me about that is I have had this taped to my desk for a while now. 

I stop a lot and repeat those words :)

Ok so I am totally in love with this song. I encourage you to listen to is. Not just listen to it, but jam out like I have been doing  for the greater part of the morning. It is Tim Timmons-Starts with me
It just does something for me! It is truth! Remember it's not just a song. When you sing a long and speak those words... THAT IS POWER! just saying :) 

My mom just shared with me some notes she took from a women's meeting the other night.She said the entire message she was thinking about me. It is good stuff so why not share!! ;)

God's plan for you life is about the Journey, not just about the destination(so true, but never thought like that)
Surrender and give God control 

Philippians 1:6

And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.


Proverbs 19:11

11 Good sense makes one slow to anger,
    and it is his glory to overlook an offense.

2 Corinthians 5:7


For we walk by faith, not by sight. 


Walk in the small things everyday. Be open to what God may be doing. Be faithful and diligent where you are while God is preparing you for what is next.(That is definitely me. I struggle with that.but i shouldn't I just need to trust and rest in God. He's got this)

Philippians 3:12-14

1Not that I have already obtained this or am already perfect, but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me his own. 13 Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.



To prepare for tomorrow, obey today.(I hear you God!)

Trust God's plan and stay open to His plan.

Proverbs 3:5-6

Trust in the Lord with all your heart
    and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways submit to him,
    and he will make your paths straight.

Philippians 4:6-7

New International Version (NIV)
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Ok I hope I haven't confused anyone with how I just did that! My words are the ones in parenthesis. Any who I thought that was really encouraging so everyone should read :) 

ps still jamming out as I write :)

I hope everyone has a great weekend! My bestie and her fam  are coming and it is my 6 yr anniversary and we will be surrounded with great friends. God is good AMAZING folks!!!
