Somebody's Praying Me Through

Wow- I am so glad to know that I have people that step up to the plate and live as Christ. We all need friends, people of integirty, people we truth with every ounce of who we are. I've learned lately that those special people God gives to us for only a short time, and then has to bless others with them because they are such rare jewls. I'm very thankful for the time that God has given me with them and there family. I know that as I pray for them, they are also praying for me as they already have through so many times, when I felt it couldn't get any worse. The words to this song, I believe fit it perfectly.

Somebody's Praying Me Through by Allen Asbury
Pressing over me like a big blue sky I know someone has me on their heart tonight That’s why I know it’s gonna be alright ‘Cause somebody’s praying me through Somebody’s praying me through It may be my Mother, it might be my Dad Or an old friend I’ve forgot I had But whoever it is I’m so glad that Somebody’s praying me through Somebody’s praying me through Through the tears, through the rain Through the sorrow, through the pain It keeps bringing me through Over and over again So when you’re drowning in a sea of hurt And it feels like life couldn’t get any worse There’s a blessing waiting to push back the curse ‘Cause somebody’s praying you through Somebody’s praying you through Someone got down on their knees and prayed for me Somebody’s, somebody’s praying you through

Let's make faces!

Small things in life, somtimes are the best things in life. Can I tell you how much this makes me smile! Have I told you lately, how much I love Meagan. OH MY GOODNESS! I love that child, I can't wait till God blesses me with children. I hope there half as wonderful as she is. Goodness, I adore her. What special memories---Meagan and Oogie making cookies! If you can look closely--I think it's a little more spinkles than cookie, maybe thats why were making faces!

Raining Thoughts

Took a little more time to post than I thought.

Started a week ago:
I love the sound of rain and enjoy watching it if I'm home and not on call which isn't the case at the moment. Anyway, while I'm sitting here listening to in rain, as fast as it is coming down, thoughts are flying through my head. Why do I do the things I do? How do I rank things in my life? What fruit is coming my life? What legacy am I living at this moment? If I could change anything in the world about myself what would it be? If I could have a million dollars today? What would I do with it? Okay- this isn't hot seat time (one of the best games ever) I just like to get personal and know. I bond and connect, build trust, and then run with it. However, I'm realizing that I've change-- sadly enough I don't think it's for the better and I don't like it. I am putting a stop to it now.



1. Why do I do the things I do? Fear of what people will think. I will not say no.

2. How do I rank things in m life? (Honest- wow I hate putting this in words) Work, Church work/activities, God, Family/Friends, Self.

3. What fruit is coming from my life? Not the fruits of the Spirit

4. What legacy am living? I can't help but think of Nichole Nordeman's song. "I want to leave a legacy How will they remember me? Did I choose to love? Did I point to You enough To make a mark on things? I want to leave an offering A child of mercy and grace whoblessed your name unapologetically And leave that kind of legacy" That's what I want t leave but I'm afriad right now, that isn't all people see. :(

5. If I could change anything in the world about myself what would it be? Trust God in EVERYTHING! I'm tired of giving Him something and then taking it back ten hundred times. I want to trust and have enjoy faith in Him that nothing else matters.

6. If I could have a million dollars today, What would I do with it? Hummm,,,,well pay off credit card, buy a new down comforter and pillows, adopt a child from Africa and provide for him/her and there family. I would also like to help my church thats not in the best situation. I would take a weekend off and stay at the Grand Hotel and have a massage every other hour :) Ha Ha!

Give Big

Well, it's been a great weekend. I have had fun, and hopefully helped others as well. I came home this afternoon after keeping Doug and Ali's kids depressed and upset that I'm home again by myself. As most people know, I would love to be married and later have kids. However, I am learning slowly, that God has something else planned. Tonight, I am just laying around and watching Oprah's Big Give. I love this show, but I have found myself sitting on the coach watching it and doing nothing. It's a movement- to give, love others even unknown people, and server and be humbled. What am I doing, sitting here- NOTHING!

While watching this, I thought about how many people see what God gave us, but still sit there unchanged. Wow- God sent Jesus Christ to Give Big---the biggest gift ever. It's motivating to live for that love that Christ gave and shared. He wasn't judgemental, prideful, or picky with who He gave too. He gave everything He had. I want to give like that.

I don't have the money like Oprah's Big Give- I'm far from being God. However, I have Jesus living in me- and I'm going to live more like it. I'm going to give to the world and not look back. I'm going to remind myself daily to put others before myself. I don't want it to be a 40 day challenge, but a lifestyle. God's blessings are poured in me daily and I want to see that others see His love.

It's time not to take but to give and give BIG! Anybody want to join me? Let's change together, and even more pour this throught Mobile.

Gotta start . . . .

Wow- I don't know why this is scary for me, but I am truthfully very scared to enter the blog world again. I have so many thoughts that rush through my head twenty-four hours a day that hopefully this will help clear some, so maybe I can sleep. Oh wait, that would be that the blackberry is off- oh well i thought there was hope.



Anyway, so here I go with the blog world again. I pray that seriously though anyone that reads this sees the real me through this. I have been told way too many times lately that I have changed, and I'm not myself. I'm sorry guys, thank you for keeping me going! I don't like who I have become. I don't like this life I am living right now and can assure you that it is going to change.



God is teaching me five things right now through "Believing God" Beth Moore Bible Study. I can't imagine taking this journey without such good friends. It's amazing how God brought us back together.



Anyway, God is pouring into me that:

1. God is who He says He is.

2. God can do, what He says He can do.

3. I am, who God says I am. ((((Yikes)))))

4. I can do all things through Christ.

5. God's word is alive and active in me.


Anyway, I praying that as I am reminding myself of these ever day, thinking out them throughout the day, and quoting them in those rough and tough moments that I will live them. Right now, I am not living as God is who He says He is in my life, nor am I trusting Him to do the things He says he can do. Not to mention, I am not believing Him when he shows and tells me what He sees me as. How drastic would my life be, if I lived this out? WOW- I want to live like that, I want to be the person that Christ says I am. I want to live and breath in Him and not be depressed and stressed out with this world as I am living now. I desire God's word to be alive in me, not to mention the fact that I want to feel alive instead of chained to something I'm not.

Please pray that I live by these truths.



I'm ready for the ride that God has before me. I'm looking forward to proclaiming that all of my chains are gone. Several years ago, I was able to sing of God's amazing grace as I accepted His love for me. Today, I am so humbled by that love for me. I want to live it out and be able to tell and show others. I just have a few things that I'm chained too. However, God can do what He says He can do. And my God can move mountains and He is about to move me! Whew, with tear filled eyes I'm ready.
