Well, I have the dishwasher going, the washer and dryer going, Gavin napping and Carlee and Julian playing. So I decided to sit down at the computer for a minute.
Julian is home from school today because he somehow got pink eye in both eyes. Poor guy. And I should really be napping now because Gavin had me up all night with a fever. Let's hope and pray Carlee stays clear of all of this sickness.
I really feel like my life has changed for the better lately. I have been getting Carlee and Julian off to school in the morning and then spending time reading my Bible and really praying. Man, let me tell you, this really helps. It is so uplifting and it gives me peace to go through my day. I feel like I have such a closer relationship with God. It is Good! I still struggle a little with some things, but not near so bad. And God is helping with that too. I am reading thru the book of Psalms in the morning. I do a couple chapters. Psalms is such a great book in the Bible. It can really lift your spirits. And I have just been asking God to search my heart and show me where I need to work on things.
On Sat. I went and visited a church with a friend of mine. And the pastor spoke on Prayer. It was a great message. Here are a few of the things he went over...
Prayer is the place where I meet God.
Prayer reminds me with whom my confidence and trust lies in. IS 30:15
Spend time with God and trust in him. Where, what, whom are you turning toward in times of trouble???
Prayer serves to quiet my spirit and guides me in wisdom. Psalm 46:10
Prayer keeps me tender to Christ's leadership in my life. Surrender to God's Control. Neh. 1:11 and 2 Chron. 7:14
Prayer reminds me that God is Great and I am not.
God is in control and he has a plan.
Those were just a few things and a few scriptures I wanted to share with you that he taught on..
I am also still reading Power of a Praying wife. I am almost done with it. Lot's of good stuff in that book!!
And I am praying about our upcoming election. I am not really political. But all I know is that Obama really scares me. I have a theory on him, but I won't share it right now. :)
Well, that is all I have time for, for now.
