Trusting God

This month is a hard month for us as a family. We have been hit with every obstacle that could come our way and it just seems ridiculous. Most of them seem completely out of the blue and something that we are not prepared for and others are things that we knew were coming up but thought we were prepared for them except when you add everything together. Seriously I'm not sure what else we can take on. 


Not all of it is bad but still adds stress. Needless to say I have been on my knees a bunch this month and it's only the 6th! I'm praying and trusting God with everything that is going on. He is the only one that can see the big picture and knows where we are going. He's going to lead us to the right places and He will provide everything we need as long as I'm asking for it. I know because He gave me what I asked for but it just seems like He did it at the wrong time. 


There is an appointed time for everything. And there is a time for every event under heaven. -Ecclesiastes 3:1 


He is timing everything and I believe that He is trying to push M to see Him in everything that is going on. God wants M to know Him again and to trust Him and each of our trials we go through and each time God pulls us through to the other side it shows a little more of God's true heart to M. It's not easy to know that we might not have so many trials if M would just believe but that's OK. I'm willing to go through these to get him there and I love seeing God's work through my family. It's great to say "God did this for us" or "God gave us this". 


So here I am down on my knees everyday asking God to just lead our family in the right direction and to provide everything we need. I know He's good and He will do it so I will keep asking. 


I'm trusting God this season of our lives!

WEDDING! Part 2: The Day Of

**Warning more Picture overload!** I couldn't help it! WEDDING DAY! (August 6, 2005) On our wedding day I was so excited! I got ready at my parents house and J. and the guys got ready at our house. It was so much fun to get our hair done at a long time friends  hair salon .  After that we headed over to my parents house to start getting ready.    Everyone was busy getting me ready and many people were up my dress trying to get my 'fluff' to stay up so I didn't have to hold my dress us when walking.  My dad was kicked out of the house until I was done. I wanted him to get the whole sh-a-bang when he walked in. This was interesting. I had to climb into the truck but was not allowed to step on the tailgate and I couldn't see my feet. It was so funny! It looks like we were going fast but we really weren't but that's how we got to the park.  THE CEREMONY! After all that hard work to make it so I ...
