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!

Day 2 of 31 Day to Clean

So I have told you the other day that I'm going to start 31 Days to Clean by Sara Mae. (For that post go to 31 days to clean post). So I'm finally on day 2 after several days in between. This will be the way it is for me because not everyday I will be able to tackle a big task, like day number 2, but I did it today and that is what counts. So what was day 2...clean the refrigerator and freezer (at least the Martha part) so that's what I did. I cleaned the refrigerator not that long ago but I figured I would just do it again and I'm glad. Just after about 2 months (maybe 3) it really needed cleaned again and I'm really happy that it looks really nice and I can find all the stuff that is in there again. I think that I'm going to put this on my To Do list every other month. I think that would be really helpful and that way it stays clean. I'm just going to put it in my day planner and when I have some free time on day I will do it that month. Sounds like a pl...

Changing My Lifestyle!

Well not only walking but just in general changing my lifestyle. I am currently overweight according to the doctors and the horrible BMI chart by 60 pounds. I seriously don't think that I will ever loose that much weight ever again. If I do great but not my goal because I want something attainable.  I have tried some many different things to lose weight and it just never works. Before I was pregnant I was right where I am now. My body has changed since I was pregnant but the weight is still the same. The good news I didn't gain anything after the pregnancy but the bad news is I still need to do something. So I'm going through the Made to Crave book and I love it. I have decided to change many different things about my lifestyle. I want to be able to have the energy to keep up with Rex and enjoy my life and right now it just doesn't seem to be everything it should be.  So here is what I have started doing...I eat only things God created. Fruits, veggies, healthy...

Frumpy or Fabulous?

Staying at home can create a sense of comfort. Allowing to stay in PJ's all day, enjoying just lounging of the couch and eating bon bon's. However for most of us homemakers we do not have this luxury of lounging and bon bon's. We have things to do with our children, house cleaning to do, and many thing outside of the house. Sometimes getting dressed in the morning just seems pointless. Excuses like I have to clean so why would I put on my 'nice' clothes or the baby is just going to spit up on me so I should just stay in my pj's since I will have to change later anyway. These are valid reasons on some  days to stay in our pj's but most  days we should get up and get ready just like if we worked outside of the home. It shows our husbands that we care about him and we try to make sure that we look good for him. It also shows are children good habits of getting up and getting dressed and ready for the day. If you read in Proverbs 31 you will see what a wif...
