The Journey

When you are on a journey you have to make many decisions including what to take, where to take, who to take, when to take, how to take ...until you reach your destination.  The last few months I have constantly been asking God these questions about my family's journey.  I don't know where I am always going but I want to please God and I think that the desire to please God...pleases God.  I don't have all the answers but if I had all the answers where would faith be?  My mom read me these verses yesterday over the phone and they gave me peace in a crazy season of life.  I hope they do the same for you.

Colossians 1: 9-10
 9 For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you. We continually ask God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all the wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives,[a] 10 so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God,

Lauren quote

The other night right before bed I asked Lauren to pick out a book that she would like for me to read to her.  She reached for her Bible and said. "Let's read the Bible and check out what God is up too."

So sorry for not updating my blog for the last few weeks.  I am always disappointed when I go to a blog and I see the same old postings.  Well the last few weeks have been filled with lack of sleep, medicine doses, running noses, doctor visits, allergic medicine rashes, more doctor visits, Asher crying, mommy holding, Andy coughing, mommy stressing, and did I mention lack of sleep?  It however, was in the sickness that I realized how healthy we are.  I am grateful for our health...I am thankful for my family.
