God's work

SO this past week has been an interesting one for me. As most of you know, marriage is hard. It is not always easy. And mine has been on the crazy cycle lately. It even came to the point of thinking about giving up. Suddenly, I had an intervention! GOD intervened. I spoke with my pastor who helped me in the most amazing way! He helped me realize that I have been baptized but never saved! How can you not be saved you ask? Well I just haven't been. So, I was saved, on that day, in his office. I bowed my head and prayed for God to come into my heart and my life. And he did!! I walked out of that office with a new look on life, feeling 100 lbs lighter. And since that day I have seen the changes in me and also in my husband. We went to church this morning together as a family for the first time. We both left there feeling amazing and renewed. In God's eyes our marriage can be renewed if we walk with Him! It's not all going to change overnight but, it is going to change over time. I can see it changing already. He left today to go to work and before he did he gave me the biggest longest hug he has given me in a long time. Kissed me and told me that he loves me and is so happy that we have accepted God into our life and looks forward to seeing the change! :Tear: aww..... And for the first time in a long time. I MISS HIM! I MISS MY HUSBAND!

So my dear friends. How are you feeling about life???? Has God worked on your heart? If you have any stories of inspiration to share please feel free!!

Ahh peace

This incredible sense of peace has come over me that last few days. I dont know what has changesd. Maybe it is the way I have been praying? Maybe it is what I have been praying for? I am learning to take the small things in life and cherish them. Like the moments that I will never get back with Landon. The new words he learns and hearing them for the first time. He never ceases to amaze me. I think God gave him to me (because he is so much like I am) to show me how even though things can be difficult and he can be stubborn (as can I) there is always another day! I have started following a blog called The Marriage Ministry. The writer is fantastic and very insightful. There is a sense of accomplishment in knowing that everyone has struggles as do every marriage. My marriage has been having some ups and downs lately, more downs than ups. But, there is hope at the end of the tunnel. I have been on a journey to look deep inside myself and be completely and truly honest about my flaws. And trust me there are some flaws!!!

I am not an expert by any means but, I can say this has been the best thing I have done for myself and my marriage so far. Maybe this is where the peace comes from :)

On a side note, we are going to a wedding this weekend where the colors are orange and camo! I will be sure to post pics next week!!!!

Have a great week and God Bless!
