WHAT CAN I BRING TO YOU?

Life continues to bring about many changes for me. In August Denise and Mike leave for 11 months and Emily is moving out. These are good things as I want my girls to be independant women of God. But to be honest - it's hard! My girls are my best friends and our relationships are awesome. An answered prayer that is for sure. I knew a few years ago that very quickly they would be gone from our home. Of course I couldn't expect them to live with me forever - God has a big plan for them and they need to pursue His plan for their lives. I feel so humbled that God would see to provide me such awesome friends in my girls. I am sure that I will continue to see Emily frequently for laundry duty here and some awesome God conversations.

There is nothing that I can even begin to bring to Jesus, simply my gratitude and my heart. I am nothing, yet he thinks of me as something so amazing and great. He continues to pursue me and love me even when I fall down. Prayer time is awesome - just laying down and being with him. Laying my own agenda aside is when I can really hear him speak. What do you want me to pray for Lord? Not what I want, but to seek everything about you; understanding that you watch over every step that I take. You WILL watch over the girls as they pursue the life that you have for them. May they always seek your face, coming to you daily in prayer and in the word.
We've got our passports - don't know why we need them, but in obedience to God we have them.

Jesus, you make me smile:)
