The Heart of Worship

"Give yourselves to God...Surrender your whole being to him to be used for righteous purposes." Romans 6:13

I must surrender and rely on God to work things out, I cannot do what my Heavenly Father has planned for my life while I am focused on my own plans.

Thank you Jesus

So I was preparing myself for going out to pick up Luke, it is 1:00 and I have to get him at 2:00. The rain is still coming down and the wind is blowing like crazy so I'm thinking it's going to be another wet journey with the three of them...It is 1:40 and the rain stopped..the sun is peeking out from behind the clouds..Thank you Lord for the little break, just in time. I pick him up and it doesn't start raining again until we are all in the house, warm and dry. It is the simple little things that God does to take care of us that we may overlook from time to time, well today I noticed and I told him thank you. I noticed his love today. Thank you for loving us Jesus.

Hello Again

I know that it has been a very great while since I have posted anything...I am going to stop feeling guilty because really who has the time with three kids to post very often, obviously I do not...so I am starting fresh with the new year. Making no promises of course.

It has been raining for three days now and I enjoy it. I love the rain, anything other than hot and sunny is a nice change. Don't get me wrong, I love sunshine but when it is also 115...not so much. Sunshine in the 70's is perfect. Rain can be a challenge when picking up Luke from school with the two other ones in tow...needless to say we all get a little wet. It's worth it though, kind of like a little adventure trudging through the cold rain, when we do eventually get home and dry it's like it wasn't that big of a deal at all. Avery started pre school at Murrieta Ranch, it is a nice break for me and she has fun once she's there and I'm gone..I'm sure the crying stops. The last couple of times she hasn't cried though, just has her hands in her mouth and is quiet as can be looking at me like "where are you going? Seriously I have to stay here? Okay". Luke still is enjoying school and he is doing really well. I help out one day a week in his classroom and he really likes that. It's fun for me too. He has a couple of close buds and has been over to play a couple times. He still goes to Awanas too and just finished his book last week. He was so excited...now he has to go through and review it. Seth is almost walking, he takes maybe 7 steps then feels more comfortable crawling. It is a lot faster. He says "uh oh", and we think he says "luke". I am subbing a couple days a week, which is a nice change from being at home all the time. Although with Avery in school it is nicer to stay at home sometimes, I can get so much more done. She is becoming more independent, if that is possible at all, and a little easier. Praise the Lord! Is my life going to get just a little easier:)

I am praying that this year brings our family closer in the Lord, and that I learn to give my worries and problems to Him. To follow the plan that He has for my life and put all my trust and faith in Him. I am so grateful for the people in my life who I can always turn to for support and love. I know that I don't always ask for help when I need it, but it is comforting to know that you are always there no matter what. I love you all very much! Thank you
