A Time For Thanksgiving!

As I come to you sweet Jesus, I fall to my knees. My life is so very blessed and I give you all the glory. My prayer tonight is full of thanks. My husband seeks your heart. My sweet children long to follow your path. I hear your comforting whisper in the warm breeze. You have kept you promises and remained faithful. You are my rock and salvation. I am humbled.

Dominick and I were on our way to school and deep in prayer. I figure Dominick's precious innocence is sure to have a direct line! He ended his sweet prayer for rain and at that very moment drops of joy filled our windshield. Dominick was amazed and said, "Mom, God answered that prayer fast!". He immediately jumped out of the car and began telling everyone that it was a miracle...an answered prayer.

...you know he was right!

A New Beginning

This past year our family has struggled.  The struggles we have survived are not the central focus, but rather my sweet Jesus who held my hand along the way.  Let us be honest, he probably picked me up and threw me over his shoulders most of the time. 
Shawn and I have given it all to the Lord and amazingly enough he knew just what to do, where to lead us, and directed our path.  Do you believe in miracles?  Over this trying time my Faith has been tested and I AM 100% sure he is at work in all our lives.
My marriage has been enriched, my relationships have been strengthened, and my precious child gave his life to Christ. 
Is he at work in my life?  Yes!  Literally.  A few days ago a group of God loving women did a prayer walk in our school.  The power of this experience is humbling.  I guarantee we prayed over everything from lockers to the toilets.  God is Awesome!
Several of my sisters in Christ share a little saying.  It states that if the devil can't make you bad, he will make you busy.
My goal this year is to take time for the Lord.  He alone has shown me mercy and given me grace.
