Wow, It has been a long time since I have written and a lot has happened.
I have been real busy with the new job and right now I am in a traveling mode for the next two weeks. It has not been too bad, I have a lot of alone time at night and I have used that to catch up on some reading. I do miss John and Sam and Daisy though.

Today is our 12th wedding anniversary. I can not express to anyone in words how grateful I am to God for putting John in my life. Some of you may know the struggles I experienced for so many years, before John. For those of you who don't, know that God is faithful even to those who have suffered through divorce. Stay strong, and faithful. I can not promise He will bring a John into your life, but He does have a plan.

God has also answered another prayer of mine. One I have been praying for over two years, and really hard in the last year. My sister, her husband, and my mom, and my niece and her wonderful son Austin are moving here. They will be arriving on Augsut 5th and I can't wait. This last year has really been a struggle for all of them. There has been pain, suffering and tears and moments of doubt. But God is with us and He is guiding them now. I do believe with all my heart this is the beginning of great things for them. And me of course, because I get to see them often.

The lives of two of my children are in quite a turmoil right now, they are hurting so I am hurting. I know there is nothing I can do but pray. So on Friday afternoon I spent some time doing just that just for the two of them. I ask God to show me His presence because I did not feel it. Through this time He reminded me of two things. One... Never say " There is nothing I can do BUT pray." That is everything I can do and it will be enough. Secondly... I recalled all the things I have seen God do recently and realized His presence is here with me, He will be with my children too. They just need to call on Him. I can't do that for them but I can pray!

I am off to worship and praise Him now. I hope you do the same today no matter what your circumstance.
