I'm not a preacher. I will not pretend to be. I am a woman who
realizes more and more every day; I want to be more like Christ- I
want Jesus more than I want the 'things' in and of the world. I don't
want things that fill me up temporarily. We won't ever have it here,
friends.

I get different kinds of comments and emails about my blogs. Sometimes
I get a praise for things I've said. I want to set the record
straight. These are not my words and God deserves all the glory.

As I prayed over my husband and boys tonight, and things going on in
my life, I was overcome with peace.

Ecclesiastes 11:5. "As you do not know the path of the wind, or how
the body is formed in a mother's womb, so you cannot understand the
work of God, the Maker of all things."

These three precious boys of mine are not at all mine. God blessed me
with them, but they belong to Him. This verse popped in my mind and I
remembered it's not up to me. None of it, nothing on this earth. It's
up to my Creator. My job is to look for Him, trust Him, and follow
down the right path.

Matthew 7:13-14
"Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the
road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. [14] But
small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a
few find it.


As I try to be a Godly wife and mother I pray that God will fill my
mouth with words of wisdom.
