In due time

It's a wonderful Wednesday. So I had a meeting today and I was so nervous about it last nights, but it went fabulous. Thank the Lord! I had a lot of people praying so that definitely made the difference.
I was just wanting to throw yesterday in the trash! Today has been a lot better. It is still like a day care here at work, but I haven't been letting those people affect me today, but they sure have tried too!

God has a big sense of humor. I was having such a hard time yesterday, I was just praying and praying my farm would appear and I would not have to come back, well I opened the paper and saw this

I laughed. I just felt like God was saying well here is your Ag scene and  I haven't forgot about you. I could be totally wrong but that is what I felt and it definitely made me smile. 

I also found a good farming shirt for Chris hehe..

HAHA... I mean yes ma'am haha!

Well I hope everyone is having a great day and continues to have a great week! 

Prayer works folks, God just wants us to talk more often. 

I get a lot of talking done in the car when listening(and maybe yelling songs) to k-love and just talking to God  because he is there with me. That is my random side note for the day. 

:)

Fearfully and wonderfully made

Oh happy Tuesday! Let's do a quick recap... Had a great weekend. Got to watch my niece Saturday night, precious girl!

How cute is she!! We also planted some tomato and pepper plants and celery. 

My other plants are doing so much, but I will continue to pray over them :) 

We also got a little pool and hey this thing is pretty awesome. It even has cup holders. Good job hubs!

I also broke my phone screen.. Yikes! The phone still works, so that is a plus. Think I am going to change back to my old blackberry. I just don't want to be so in tune with technology anymore. I'm tired on my phone being a permanent part of my body. 

I have also been struggling with work these past couple weeks. It's just been wearing me down. I was going to write about this song I heard yesterday but it still is appropriate so here it is. Carry me now- Josh Wilson

I want so much to do exactly what I need too, but "I" am having a hard time staying here. I know God's plans are great and the journey is part of the plan. OOOOOHHH sorry my song is now playing! :) 

THIS ONE...  Well that puts a smile on my face :) 

I just want to start farming y'all. Chris and I are just very weary where we are right now. 

At the end of the day we are trying to be strong because we know we are only here for a season and not forever. 

I also want to say how deeply sad I was when watching everything about the storms in OK. Praying for them!

 I can't begin to imagine what they are going thru, definitely makes me want to go back and delete all my whining, can't predict the future. Love on all your family and friends! 

These are the days of our lives...

So it is Thursday.. Let me list the positives.. My little bug graduated K-4 today!! Oh she is getting so big!

So I know it is just a k-4 graduation, but I was so excited! This is a big deal :) She is a big deal and I wanted her to know that! 

My day didn't start out so exciting. It actually started out with me wanting to walk out of work and never return. I asked Chris if he had bought our farm today and unfortunately he did not so I had to come back.  

I cant even describe the morning or the past few days, other than saying hot mess... I did receive very encouraging devotionals and heard some perfect words/songs at the right time, and that did help. 

Worn is a very good word to describe myself right now. Although on a great note it has been 2 1/2 weeks and I have not smoked. I did have a pretty good salad today too.

The God calling was really good today. This stuck out to me 

"Prayer changes all. Prayer re-creates. Prayer is irresistible. So  pray, literally without ceasing. "

Definitely need to remember and keep that up!! That is my encouragement knowing God can take any situation and change it :)

Here's to a great Friday!

Let's begin again..

Well I feel like I have been flying under the radar a bit a little lately. My apologies, I believe I have come out of the gunk! I will begin reclaiming the promises over our life!

I hope everyone had a happy Mother's Day! I had a very good day. I received the cutest travel mug. I was very excited because I don't have one and this one is so sweet.

Addy was being very sweet too. (for the most part haha)

She was practicing her curtsy haha :) 

Our little garden is growing little by little. The spinach is definitely shooting on up. I don't have a picture of that but it's an update :)

I have found a new item i would like to have. 

Yes, I designed it that way along with it being camo and with big tires... who wouldn't want that! :)

A girl can dream :) 

I have been feeling overwhelmed a bit, but I think I am going to take my sisters advice and re-read spirit wars. I got a lot of that going on. 

I saw this today and thought hmm well that sounds goo. I do need rest so lets go to God. :) 

Then i was listening to this song.. How He loves us- David Crowder Band

I got to eat lunch with an old friend today. It has probably been 10 years since I have seen her. That was really nice!

I also got a fun new cup, I mean who doesn't love that haha

I am trying to not let work get the best of me. I really let is stress me out this weekend.. Yuck!
But Addy will graduate this Thursday :) I'm super excited!

Well I hope everyone has a great day!!

Change

Well I hope everyone had a great Monday! I have had a wonderful day! I woke up praying that today would be amazing and praise the Lord it was! It is still not over, my new favorite show brain games comes on at 9 :) If you have national geographic channel it is definitely a must watch!

So let me recap the weekend. I was able to kind of sleep off this sickness. It rained all Saturday so that was good sleeping weather. haha :) I finally feel much better! yay!  I have not smoked in over a week and I feel a lot better! :) I feel like a lot of changes are happening, not only changes we are making by doing healthier things, but changes I can't see yet. I just know things are happening and I feel very excited. I saw something Joyce Meyer had posted (on twitter, yes i cant stop) she said "As long as we complain, we remain stuck in our problems. But a thankful attitude brings deliverance and makes God smile!"

I thought and thought about that last night. It was like a light bulb finally went off. Or someone was like Hello!! Get over yourself :) So I wanted to go today without complaining, I am sure I messed up a few times,but it really made a difference and I did feel very thankful and had renewed my faith,hope.

It made me feel very good and just flat out happy. Let's be happy folks! I was thinking that it doesn't matter when God's plan is rolled out, but I will be happy NOW because this is the journey and I won't ever get there if I walk around feeling sorry for myself! So I wanted to snap out of it. I want other people to say... why is she always smiling? It does absolutely nothing for any one to be a debbie downer. Ok that rant is over :) I have to get these conversations out, because otherwise it just stays in my head.

My bestie Jess, sent me this verse today and I really liked it so I will share :)
Psalm 25:5
Ease me down the path of your truth. Feed me your word because you are the true God who has saved me. I wait all day long hoping, trusting in You.

Ok so today's God Calling was very good also.. So again I would like to share. :)

Sublime Audacity

The way is long and weary. It is a weary world. So many today are weary. "Come unto Me... and I will give you rest."

My children, who range yourselves under My flag, you must see that on it are inscribed those words "The Son of Man."

Whatever the world is feeling, I must feel, I-the Son of Man. You are my followers-so the weariness of man today must be shared by you-the weary and heavy-laden must come to you and find that rest you found in Me.

My children, My followers must be prepared not to sit on My right hand on and on My left, but to drink of the cup that I drink of.

Poor world-teach it that there is only one cure for all its ills-Union with Me. Dare to suffer, dare to conquer, be filled with sublime audacity. Remember that. Claim the unclaimable.

Just what the world would think impossible can always be yours. Remember, My children, sublime audacity.

 

That is what we should do. Claim it! :)

I hope eveypne's tomorrow is fantastic!!!

 

Pray first , then move

I have learned a lot, but Pray first then act is on that I struggle with. I am quick to act.
I don't want to be like that, but it is easy. I gave these verses to a friend this morning and I felt like they were for me too when I was passing them along...


Isaiah 41:10
'Do not fear, for I am with you; Do not anxiously look about you, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, surely I will help you, Surely I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.'

Psalm 27:1
The LORD is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The LORD is the defense of my life; Whom shall I dread?



So I am going to have a good day and weekend!! I am trying to beat this sickness but I feel like it is beating me down. Yuck!

Plus side, i got this toy in the mail and I have it placed on my desk as like a stress reliever. It is a honk suppressor  mainly for people to honk to much in their cars or have road rage i guess haha

But I used it a lot yesterday haha! It makes like a little squeak so it makes us all laugh :)

Well I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!!

God Bless!!

I just don't know

Well it is Thursday. I have been under the weather since the weekend and crazy with work and haven't made time to write. I was going to kinda tell what's been going on with work, but I am really over it right now. I had a huge praise report and was very excited and I feel I have let the devil get me down about it. I am trying to not be down about what happened between last night and this morning, but it has me all coming apart.

Psalm 31:24 “Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD.”


Kelly even gave me some encouraging words last night, but I feel like I just fell down a well. Ok let's get out of this! 

On a positive note, I have struggled with smoking for several years and I can say it has been 5 days without!

See  it is so obvious. When you are on the right path, the devil wants to get you so upset that you go back to your old ways, well tough! 

Another positive the bathroom at work is pretty much finished. I just have to fins some prints that I want for the wall . 

Well I am going to continue to jam tooooo this HERE

So there! :)

Tomorrow will be a great day... I declare!
