God's Great Grace

Just saw this reading today, how fitting...
I still feel overwhelmed, ok, that's not the right word.  I still, I dunno how I feel.  I know God is here and I have not left His side!  This time in my life is when there is only one set of footprints in the sand, and it's God's, carrying me...  I don't know what I need to get out of my rut, but praying that God is teaching me and I am learning through this grief, depression, whatever you want to call it!
I'm still praising my God, He is my all!!

God's Great Grace

God's grace is great enough to meet the great things,


The crashing waves that overwhelm the soul,

The roaring winds that leave us stunned and breathless,

The sudden storms beyond our life's control.



His grace is great enough to meet the small things,

The little pin-prick troubles that annoy,

The insect worries, buzzing and persistent,

The squeaking wheels that grate upon our joy.

Hi there,
found your blog and read some posts. I see you are grieving for your Dad. Three weeks ago we lost my father in law to motor neurone disease and I too am going through some kind of blue funk! Please know you are not alone. When we look to the Lord He will deliver us. We learn so much about leaning on Him during times of grief, don't we? but He understands and His grace and mercies are new EVERY morning.
Praying for you right now!

Sandra,
Thanks so much! Praying for you during this difficult time!
Grief is a nasty little thing! My dad has been gone for one year, but it seems to be hitting me just now, and hard! :\
I always said, I may not like it, but TRUST You God, You have areason for everything and You know what You are doing, I may not agree, but I TRUST You!
I think some of it the holiday's too?
Praying for you and your family!
Thank you for your prayers!

Whew...

written 4-7-18 Wow! It's been a while since I"ve blogged...  Crazy fun times around here!  :) We had a BIG EVENT for our church Friday night.  It was awesome!!!  All about where we are and what we need to finance our new church building we are building!  We were to take a card and pray about a number and donate for the building fund.  It was a FANTASTIC awesome night to say the least!!! Curt and I have been praying about a number that God wants us to give.  We both feel a number, we can't afford.  haha...  We really can't afford anything because we still have 2 adoption credit card bills we are paying off.  God has blessed us and given us what we need each month.  But we want to give, and adding it up and looking at our budget and writing it all out, it's not there.  Nothing is there!  But that's the way it was with adoption!  We took that step of faith! So that was Friday...  Saturday morning went to kettle bell class and I died...  I honestly haven&#

Grandma

Grandma passed away this morning at 1:35 am. She had been totally un-responsive for the past couple of days. Yesterday we got a call and said she only had an hour, they said they made the mistake and grandma heard them, so she kept hanging on! Her feet had been cold and almost black, but they were starting to get warm and she was taking more breaths, but still very shallow. Finally she gave in and went home! The family seems to be doing ok, just please keep them in your prayers! The viewing will be Sunday and the funeral on Monday. I am not sure of the times yet, they are meeting with the funeral director in an hour. I am not going to be at the musical practice Monday nite, so Sandy May and Jena R are in charge that nite! I will have the lines assigned so the kids will know what their parts will be! Please help them out this week!!!! Thank you!!!! Thanks again for all of your prayers!!!!

Ultrasound

First of all, thank you ladies for all those sweet comments you made on my last post! How sweet you are for saying those things! Made my day!!! :O) Second, went for the ultrasound on Monday and everything is fine! WHOO HOO!!!!! No more placenta previa!!!! The baby weighs about 2 1/2 lbs, and everything looks good! We took the kids with us so they could see their baby brother/sister, they LOVED it!! Gavin was FULL of questions though! What's that stuff she put on mommy's belly? Why do the lights needs to be off? I only see one eye. Where's the other eye? What was that, is that his hand or leg? Oh my.... ;o) The tech ended up putting up a 4D on the screen, so that was really cool to see! The cord was kinda in the way, but I still think it was awesome! I didn't have that with any of the other kids!!! :O) Maybe the trick is taking 3 other siblings in to see the 4th!!! ;o) I also only gained a pound, which I am trying to figure out, seeings how I pretty m
