Never let down!

Last night I got reminded of a simple truth:

God will never let me down, He never has, He never will!

Sometimes I get so caught up in all the "stuff" around me that I lose focus of what is really important. My prayer tonight is nothing fancy, just that I stay focused on God because HE will never let me down.

Proverbs 3:5-6 says " Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;
 in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."

When things get crazy, I HAVE to remember to trust in the Lord!

Romans 8:28 "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."

Something good will come out of everything we go through!

Matthew 6:34 "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."

No need to stress....just live for Christ today!

I am so thankful for all the reminders that I got yesterday!

I never leave your hands

I have unanswered prayers.
I have trouble I wish wasn't there.
I have asked a thousand ways,
that you would take my pain away.
That you would take my pain away.

I am trying to understand,
how to walk this weary land.
Make straight the paths that crookedly lie,
Oh Lord before these feet of mine,
Oh Lord before these feet of mine.

When my world is shaking,
Heaven stands.
When my heart is breaking,
I never leave your hands.

When you walked upon the earth,
You healed the broken, lost, and hurt.
I know you hate to see me cry,
One day you will set all things right.
One day you will set all things right.

When my world is shaking,
Heaven stands.
When my heart is breaking,
I never leave your hands, your hands

Your hands that shape the world,
are holding me,
they hold me still.
You hands that shape the world,
are holding me,
they hold me still.

When my world is shaking,
Heaven stands.
When my heart is breaking,
I never leave,
When my world is shaking,
Heaven stands.
When my heart is breaking,
I never leave,
I never leave you hands.

Sorry Lord for forgetting that you always have me in your hands, no matter what!

Thanks Dad!

Nathan got a climber for his birthday from his Gammy and PawPaw. Since we are in the process of moving, we decided to wait until we get into our new house to open it.

We have boxes piled high in our dining room right now, in front of the boxes is the box with his climber in it. It has a picture of the climber on the front. Everyday Nathan crawl over to the box and points to it. I swear he is saying, "please open this for me," but he really just grunts! He even points at it from across the room and grunts. It is so cute. It has taken longer than expected to get into our house, so we gave in tonight. Matthew put the climber together!


He was SOOO excited!


He was helping dad put it together





"Like this dad!"





All finished!







Thanks dad!
