~I am a blessed wife, a homeschooling mommie, a guitar playing crazy photog Mommie~

The Lord is so Faithful! If you only get one thing from this blog......I want you to come to know how amazingly Faithful our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is!!! I am in awe of all of the wonderful blessings the Lord bestows upon me and my family every single day!!

Enjoying the beautiful calling of the Lord!

I am first a woman in absolute love with my personal Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! I am married to the most amazing man of God in the this entire world.....I am also an extremely blessed mommy to SEVEN beautiful children! Together my husband and I Homeschool our children and enjoy learning from them also on a daily basis.....it is amazing the things the Lord teaches us through our children....."out of the mouths of babes".....this is so true! This "blog" or "journal" is something I have prayed about doing for a long time.....and I feel blessed that the Lord has opened this door before me~ My prayer is that the Lord will use what He is teaching me on a daily basis to minister to others.......as I share my heart and basically make my walk with my Lord and Savior as an open book......I give it to God to do with it as He pleases~ As a child of God, a wife, a mommy, a homeschooling mom & photographer.......I have learned to trust in the Lord for His will for my life....the scripture that my husband and I hold dearest to our hearts is~ Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the Lord with all your heart..and lean not on your own understanding....in all your ways acknowledge Him....and He will direct your paths~

When the rain finally comes

I am happy to be back to my blog.....after a year of off and on writing...I am hoping to be faithful in keeping up with my daily online journal!
I come to you today with unspeakable JOY in my heart!!! After years of thinking I was growing in the Lord....maturing as a Christian, I finally realized that I wasn't! I am no further in my walk than I was years ago!! I went to church....I worshiped the Lord...I prayed all of the time...but there was something missing! I was waiting for the Lord to drop a bomb in my face about something extremely important to our Christian walk!! I have prayed and prayed like crazy about this very thing.....I just felt lost and confused about which direction to go....I think I was also afraid to commit unless I knew for sure...100% it was what the Lord wanted me to do!!! I have always been afraid to step out and let God close the door....so I just wait and wait.......and wait until I hear that quiet voice...or a shout out from God to move!!!!
Well after some serious crying out to God...fasting....prayer....prayer....fasting!!! I finally heard Him say the one thing I have been waiting for!
I heard Him say "IT IS TIME"!!!!!!! I was thinking for real? But why now God? Why not 10 yrs ago? Why have I had to wait? I have been wanting this for so long, Lord but you wouldn't answer me!!!??!! He told me that He was talking but I just wasn't listening! He was trying to teach me things but I was partially deaf!! I wanted to hear Him .....but I wasn't really ready for what He had to say! I needed to learn some things that I wasn't really ready to learn. He had to take me back to a place of nothing......He took people out of my life....people I loved dearly....friends that I held close to my heart that were not mature Christians! He removed everyone out of my life...at least it felt like He did!! He made it to where it was just Him and I...me and my Lord.....He loves it that way, ya know!
The Lord will remove any distractions from our lives that come between our relationship with Him!
Well I have drawn this out long enough....
The thing the Lord needed me to do....is too step out....and just trust Him!! When I felt like I couldn't do it....I was so afraid......so scared! I finally did it!! I said YES LORD!!!!
Oh the doors that will be opened before me.....now that I said "Yes Lord...USE ME"!!!
