Laying Out the Fleece

Two of my boys being silly

Just a warning my pictures have nothing to do with my post......Just thought you might like to see my boys! Aren't they good looking!:) Okay now to the post....

I'm sitting here at my computer at 11:43 p.m-actually it is more like an hour later because I have been trying to decide on pictures. 

Anyways, I was talking to the Lord and wondering if I should really be doing this blogging thing!  So, I laid a fleece out.  I know not real original, but that's all I have at the moment!


Have you ever laid a fleece out?

Well, I did.... totally unrelated, but doesn't he look so cute...... Now where was I.......Oh yea, I laid my fleece out.

.

I said to the Lord " Lord if you want me to do this blog and the website I'm working on-someone will have looked at  my site- there will be some views on my page.  If you don't want me to, then no one will have looked at it. 

I looked -fully expecting there to be no page views(talk about lack of faith)- there were more than I have have ever had.

I know the Lord wants me to do this. It may be just to encourage one person.  One person is worth it all! Jesus would have died for just one of us! Goodness knows I sure didn't deserve it! May the Lord Bless You and Keep You -Good Night Dear Friends!

What I want to be About!





I have to say that this isn't my first blogging rodeo, but I will say this is the first time of being completely who I am. I've read many post on blogging about what you love! I don't have to think too hard to know who it is I love-Jesus and I want this vapor of a life to be about Jesus;the Lord of my life! 



I love him more than ever! I would not have been able to say that 10 years ago when I was so far in the pit-I couldn't even see the light at the top, but I can now-Thank you Lord! Every day I serve him in Honduras or at home affirms that my life must be all about him! Do I struggle-Yes ma'am! Recently? The answer would still be yes! Am I perfect? No! But I want to live for him for the rest of my days! I want the old "woman" in me to be dead and I want to be fully alive in my sweet Savior!

Some days that refining fire is so hot and hurts so much that all I want to do is run! Then there are those days where I just get down with life-the days when the piles of laundry are touching the ceiling and I'm trying to figure out this blogging thing or homeschooling my three boys meanwhile my boys can't say not one nice thing to each other-unless you consider Meany and Scalawag nice. Can anyone relate?

Then there are those times like when the Lord let me serve in Honduras, it's times like that I know that living for the Lord Jesus is what I was created to do.  There is nothing that touches the heart more than a grown woman who lives in a foreign country tell you that she loves you and loves learning about the Lord or you get to tell a little brown-haired, dirty faced little girl about Jesus and you get to lead her to Jesus! It makes it worth it all, Doesn't it!

 This time around blogging is going to be different, I am combining all the things I love into this blog-Encouraging people, Missions,praying and I'm sure you will hear about my friends and family! I love all these things and I love sharing my Lord with anyone who will listen. I want to encourage others to live for him and love on him with all their hearts and I want to share about others who I know do just that! I love you already and I know everyone needs encouragement especially us women! So be encouraged my friend-the Lord loves you and he is not through with you yet! May you be blessed and may you seek the Lord with all your heart and he will be found!


~May the Grace of Jesus shine upon you today~
