A Gift from GOD?

This week thus far has been interesting... i don't even know if there are words to describe the emotional roller-coster that i feel like it has been.

No matter how hard it has been or even how much it may seem i have blown it out of proportion, God is good.

Sometimes my perspective on things can make a situation into something that it isn't. This week granted hard, was a blessing and i know just another step in the refining process.

I am Happy with the outcome that God has given me and though it is not the easiest outcome, it is a blessing... Please pray for me.

If you feel like you are in the dark about what i am talking about... don't worry you will know soon enough. Please do not come up with your own theories... just be patient and when the storm has passed i will gladly share with everyone...

Sometimes we don't understand, But God's will is perfect, and so beyond US.

If he has put it before me, i can endure it.

Strength

Today has been a rough day.... and although i don't really want to talk about the details... I am finding strength to keep myself together. and am actually enjoying the day with my beautiful son. Today i am taking a break from my phone which might make some people worry, but don't, i am ok. Sometimes things come along and shake you up and sometimes things don't happen the way you want then to or that you think they should... but i know that the Lord knows what He is doing and i find comfort in that. With that comfort i find strength to keep going day by day, problem by problem, and heartache by heartache...

* Although men are accused of not knowing their own weakness, yet perhaps few know their own strength. It is in men as in soils, where sometimes there is a vein of gold which the owner knows not of.
Jonathan Swift

HE Loves Me

Good Morning! I think this just might be the most i have blogged in a two week period... i am trying to be consistent.

Last night was Harper's first night trying to sleep in his crib. he hasn't slept in it since he was like 4 months old. When he learned to roll over it made sleeping in the crib difficult for him and has spent the last 4 - 5 months sleeping in his car seat... interesting i know.

Well he did sleep a little but woke up crying hysterically every 1-2 hours... So i didn't sleep much. When i woke up this morning, be it to a crying baby... i was still quite tired and a little cranky... but proud he had made it through the night! I hope the the next few nights will get easier and easier for both him and me!

Am I boring you yet? Sorry if i am.

As we both got up, Harper got dressed and i got coffee... when the daylight started to peak through the window i couldn't help but notice how beautiful it was outside and that turned my thoughts to God. He loves me. i know this... even when i am a mess, when i am an irritable, tested and frustrated mom... and feel like i can't do it anymore... He loves me.

I am so thankful that today i exist and can enjoy this day that God has made I will rejoice and be GLAD in it... at least i will try my best. :)

Night #2 in the crib... bring it on!
