This is going to be very random thoughts etc but thanks if you make it to the bottom =) I'm not a great blogger.
Yesterday I went to Women's Breakaway with some wonderful women from Kent City Baptist Church. It was an awesome day. Whenever I come home from an event like that it's so hard for me to process everything it makes me think about and write it out or describe it in words. I'd love to get a copy of the event so I can listen to it over and over. One of the speakers was Carol Kent. It amazes me that even though her son is in prison for murder that "she is the way she is". If you're reading my blog you should really look up her story. I'm sorry I don't have much else to say because it's just so much that I'm still trying to process.
Today I cleaned in Sparta and then hung out with my sister and Luke for the day. We visited Grandma & Grandpa and had a great day.
MWL Update - I'm down another 2.5lbs for a total of 27. Josh weighed in yesterday and LOST 7lbs and is down a total of 31. He is doing absolutely amazing. So proud of him. This has been so wonderful that we can do this together. I wouldn't have been able to do it without him and vice-versa.
I sent an email to my Aunt. I just couldn't stand the thought of there being an issue between our family. I love all of my family dearly and it was on my mind way too much to just let it go. She replied (thankfully) and I'm feeling much better. I feel like the whole thing is pretty much resolved. I have not talked to my cousin yet. That will come next.
Tonight I wanted to talk to the girls and tell them that at bed time I'd like to start a new routine. I'm hoping it lasts. I want to tuck them in and then pray. Believe it or not I am horrible at praying outloud or even by myself. I want to pray always and pray more. So I thought that this would help me alot and also be a great bonding time etc with me and my girlies. The girls prayers usually are ...Dear Jesus Thank you for Mommy, Daddy, and the rest of the family, and pray we have a good night etc. So I'm anxious to see the growth in prayer as they grow older.
Sometimes I also grab this book I have called... God's promises & answers for your life... that has bible verses etc. I like to open it and just whatever page it turns to read the verse and think about the verse. I think it's great that no matter when I read it - it can apply to something that's going on in my life at that exact moment.
This was today....
"What you can do to help your business" (How fitting) ;)
This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperus, and then you will have good success. ~ Joshua 1:8 LOVE THIS ONE
Thus says the Lord, your Redemmer, The Holy One of Israel: "I am the Lord your God, who teaches your to profit, who leads you by the way you should go" ~ Isaiah 48:17
Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.
~3 John 2 LOVE THIS ONE TOO
I've been thinking about my 3 jobs and I hope I'm not spreading myself too thin. The main thing I've always wanted to do is be with my girls. If you total up my part time work and cleaning it's about 25 hours. Which is not 40 hours so that's great!! I also think (well once the girls start school I could be busy anyways because they wouldn't be home anyways) I guess that's what I'll just have to keep telling myself?
