I am so sorry for anyone that was waiting for my next post! You waited a long time! We have made it over the hump, however, and we now have 4 beautiful children! We were extremely blessed to welcome a beautiful and healthy baby boy on October 10, 2011. Titus James was 7 lbs 15 oz and 21" long! He is growing wonderfully and to quote my mother-in-law he is filling out beautifully. God has totally blessed us. I cannot imagine where we would be without Him right now. We have been able to witness so many people working as His hands and feet these past couple of months it is just truly amazing and inspiring. God has been moving in our lives in wonderous ways.
The past few days have been rough. The Holy Spirit layed some things on my husband's heart that brought up many of the issues of self-doubt and so many others that I had never really dealt with since I was a teenager. There came a day where I knew I was pregnant with Will and I had no choice but to forget those things, pushing them to the back of my mind but never really dealing with them. So when Jimmy came to talk to me on Sunday evening alot of those feelings and emotions came flooding back in. Praise the Lord for it though, because I am now having the opportunity to work through them with God guiding me and helping me. What fabulous grace I have been given! Such an amazing and awesome God we serve!
I have really been encouraged, convicted and especially challenged by the book Not A Fan by Kyle Idleman. Fabulous read! I recommend it to everyone. Period. God has really been using it to change things up around here, and it is crazy! I'm excited to see where things proceed from here, and even more excited to share these things with you all as they unfold!
How great and amazing is our God! As I look into the face of any one of my children, I am overwhelmed with love and cannot imagine giving one of them up for anyone. God loved us so much that He gave His son to die for us...while we were strangers to Him, when we were refusing Him and turning our backs, He gave His only son...ONLY son to die fore the people that hurt Him the most. Now that is love that is uncomprehendable while we are still here on earth! Crazy, unbelievable, awesome love! We totally do not deserve it! And all that He asks is that we believe and follow Him! Gives me chills just thinking about it. Amazing and wonderful grace!
So sorry that my first post in months is so random and scatterbrained, but I am just so excited! Know that there are many more things to come from my blog in the near future. I am so excited to share them with you, and so blessed to have the opportunity!
PRAISE THE LORD!
"So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God."
