Over the past couple of months, since becoming a "blogger" I have wondered into other peoples blogs. I enjoy reading them, be encouraged by total strangers and especially seeing others in the world that love the LORD as I do.

I have come across a blog that is written by an incredible Christian woman. She started this blog when she and her husband found out that they were going to be losing the child that she was carrying and this was a way for her to share her thoughts and feelings. WOW!!! She has encouraged me so much it is amazing.

Recently, she posted a blog that her sister-in-law Nicole (who formerly sang with Selah) and her husband Greg had lost their little boy, Luke on 5-27-08. Luke was only 2 months old and died of SIDS. The family is devastated and going through a lot of grief, anger, disbelief and sorrow right now amongst many other feelings.

Through these difficult times, Angie, has remained strong in her faith and continued to lean on our great heavenly FATHER. SHe has had many conversations with HIM and questioned why? but through it all she knows that HE is on HIS throne and HE does not make mistakes.

Angie also found comfort in reading from Luke 5:27 (the day that Luke went to heaven) and this scripture has comforted her throughout these past couple of days. Please read this passage and know that Luke is now in heaven with our great and awesome heavenly FATHER

THANK YOU

I just wanted to take a moment to thank everyone who has prayed for Kahli this week during her illness. It was a difficult week for her (and me too!) but thankfully she is feeling better. I will continue to pray that somehow, someday we will be able to get her "brittle" diabetes under control.

The sensor seems to be helping with her highs and lows but unfortunately the night that we had all of the problems her sensor ended and was being charged.

Tomorrow is a new day and a brand new week. Kahli and I just got home from church and feel revived and on fire for the LORD and ready to go out and share his goodness through our words and actions.

May the LORD bless each one of you throughout your week.

"Happy Mother's Day"

First of all, I would like to wish all of the mothers reading an incredibly HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!!

This mother's day I spent with Kahli, my mom and my grandma. We traveled to Cherryville early Sunday morning so we could be at church and sitting in Grandma's pew when she came out of sunday school. Boy was she surprised the look on her face was well-worth the 2 hour drive.

After church we then headed back to grandma's house for lunch. Boy did I eat more than I should have but everything was so good and after all....it was MOTHER'S DAY!

Vickie, Don, Lynne and Dakota all joined us for lunch and then off to their house to play Wii with Kahli and Dakota. That was a lot of fun but why is it the younger the player of the game the more likely it is that they will win? It was fun even though I did lose.

Back in the car for the ride home. It was so windy that I thought that "my bug" was going to be lifted up and thrown into other cars.....

We arrived home at 6:02 and Kahli and I made a mad dash to change clothes quickly so we could make it to church by 6:45. We drove into the parking lot at 6:44 and did not miss a minute of the service. What an incredible service it was. It is so amazing to see how GOD is working. The church "New Spring" built a house for a single mother and her teenage son. They also gave away a van that was fully equipped with a wheelchair ramp and automatic doors for another woman and her handicapped son. We also heard different people's testimony about how the LORD has worked in their lives and heard a great message too....

Kahli and I were very tired after our day but after the service we were so energized by GOD's love that we just wanted to tell everyone just how awesome HE is.

All and all it was an absolutely AMAZING day that I spent with four generations of woman.

Thanks be to GOD for HIS indescribable gift. 2 Corinthians 9:15
