God has been blessing our socks off! He has seen so good to us and continues to answer our prayers. Since quitting my job our finances have been better than they ever have. This last weekend I was able to go to Lane Bryant and buy new clothes. I had a blast and I was able to buy two sizes smaller. YEAH! I don't know if it is like this for anyone else but my weight fluctuates so much. I am trying to loose as much as possible and it seems to be working because my sugar is doing wonderful and I am taking NOTHING for it. Please keep praying for us because we are trying to get some major medical insurance. Every time I start to worry about it I just remind myself that God has told me "Trust ME". He has taught me so much since becoming pregnant with Piercen. It's been the greatest journey and one I have learned the most from.
As I read other blogs I am so encouraged how the Lord is not only working in our lives but in the lives of you as well. Amanda and her husband Jeremy have answered the call that God has placed upon them at this present time. If you get a chance take a look at Amanda's blog and pray for them as they are planting a church and working in Austin!
I know what it is like to give up what is comfortable and answer the call to minister. It isn't always easy not sleeping in my own bed. It isn't always easy sharing my husbands time with others, it isn't always easy being away from home as much as we are but nothing is more precious than being in the center of Gods perfect will. Jeremy is an evangelist and THIS is what God has called me to do --- being his wife, being a mommy and being obedient to the call on my life. I remember just a few weeks ago I leaned over and said "Jeremy, what is my ministry right now?" It was 5 minutes later that the Lord directed me to make two phone calls to two of the girls who had been on my heart. Needless to say I was reminded then of my ministry. God has a way of speaking some times doesn't he ???? Pray for us as we travel. I have traveling with Jeremy about 75% of the time. Being in church several nights a week is such a blessing. Just last week a lady who had been sick with arthritus for 5 years and could not hold her hands above her head was healed and I was able to witness the Lord and his healing in that lady but at the same time the nights to get long and tiring at times. I know you guys pray for us and it means alot. God always knows what we need!
Piercen is getting so big. He will be 4 months old this month on the 28th. I could never put into words what a blessing he has been in our lives. I am speechless. I stand in awe at the goodness of the Lord. I feel so unworthy to be so happy! When I hold his tiny little hand in mine I am reminded that he is watching everything I say and do. We had his baby dedication on April 1st. Jeremy and I had already dedicated our sweet son to the Lord before he was even born yet we had the dedication and it is a reminder of our committment to both Piercen and the Lord. Piercen has been sleeping thru the night since he was 7 weeks old but we now have a set schedule every day. We did this about 6 weeks ago. I hate to admit it but I have kept him beside our bed in his basinett but he is outgrowing it. He is going to have to move to his baby bed in his nursery soon! I am going to cry like a baby. He loves to 'talk', LOVES bath time, loves to ride in the car, ADORES music, and I can't wait to find out what he weighs and how much he has grown. He has noticed his toes now, likes to look at himself in the mirror, chuckles outloud and HATES being on his tummy! I make him have tummy time but he can't stand it. He doesn't meet a stranger and that scares me hee hee ! He is so laid back and easy going... I know he gets that from his daddy.
We just thank God for our little guy and just pray for health and happiness every day. I realize I have to TRUST HIM in everything. Being a mommy is a huge ministry to me. I know I am not perfect but I sure hope in all things I can point him to Jesus. That is my daily prayer. In changing his diaper I am teaching him something, In putting away my dishes I am teaching him something, in checking the mail I am teaching him something. He needs to see Jesus in my walk, in my talk, and in our play. We as mommy and daddy get one time to raise our children! Oh what a calling he has given us! You pray for me and I am praying for you!
