Praying For Our Sons

Well, today is the fist day of my commitment to pray 21 days for my boys.
I have joined a lovely group of women who have committed 21 days on behalf of raising up their sons to be Godly men through prayer. The book is called Warrior Prayers which is by Brooke Mcglothlin,
I joined through my dear friend Daisy who is the leader of our group via blog world. If you have boys and would love to join us feel free to click on Daisy's link above and leave a comment for her :)

So far for today's devotion/ prayer time which covered Obedience 
 I enjoyed reading through the scriptures and praying them for and over my sons.
Here are just a few,,,



May Zane and Ezra obey Jesus' commandments, and remain in His love
 (John 15:10). 


Whether it is favorable or unfavorable, may Zane and Ezra obey the LORD our God so that it will go well with them 
(Jeremiah 42:6). 


May Zane and Ezra return to the LORD their God, and obey with all their heart and all their soul all the commands God has given 
(Deuteronomy 30:2). 

Looking Unto Jesus

LOOKING UNTO JESUS

“Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith” (Hebrews 12:2).

If you should ask me what is happening in the world right now, I would answer,

“Everything Jesus warned us would happen in the last days!” He warned of

men’s hearts failing them with fear from beholding the things happening on

earth. He warned of earthquakes in various places—nations rising against

nations—ethnic group against ethnic group.

We have lived to see the beginning of all the end-time prophecies being

fulfilled before our very eyes. Consider Luke 21:11, “Great earthquakes in

various places.”

What did Jesus tell us to do when we see all these things coming to pass? He

said, “Look up, lift up your heads (eyes); for your redemption is drawing

near” (21:28).

Oh beloved, if you love Jesus, you should not be surprised or fearful. GOD HAS

EVERYTHING UNDER CONTROL.

Yes, we tremble at first seeing and hearing such dire news—but this is the

time to look unto Jesus. He brought us this far—he is the author of our

faith—he will bring us to the finish line with hope and peace, no matter what

happens.

Today, let not any bad news cast down your soul. Look up—keep your entire

focus on Jesus. He is coming very soon.

“Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; for he is

faithful that promised” (Hebrews 10:23).

This devotion was such a sweet fragrance for my soul today. 

 I am posting this late past midnight which really

means its yesterdays devotion :)

 This time of night is when I get to really take advantage and get my sweet moments of rest to indulge myself in the Lord. Hope you can slow down a bit and find your quite time to spend with our Lord too !!

Blessings to all dear readers,

God Will Show You His Will For Your Life

I love my routines at home with baby. Yes they almost change every day but there is something that gives me comfort and inspiration. I love looking forward to something while busy about house work or cooking in my kitchen. Something that I have enjoyed looking forward to at least once a week is listening to Dr. Charles Stainly. I love listening while busy doing the dishes or while getting a shower. He is such a sweet man and always so encouraging. This weeks broadcast is called "God Will Show His Will" I just loved it so much and I thought there might be those of you who might enjoy also. I hope you all have a blessed weekend.

Tuesday Afternoon Prayer

Every other Tuesday in the afternoon Eliza and I get to be a part of a small woman's prayer group. I love this time because we get to come together with 3 other girls and get to pray for each other and for what is going on in the world. We met two of the girls for the first time two weeks ago and they both were so kind and relative. I feel really blessed being surrounded by such good Godly women who set such a great example for me to follow. I can see that we all love the Lord, which makes me happy.

New Home

Thursday the day before the closing date we found out that we finally got a approved on our house loan! Yes, almost a month later we find out! Praise the Lord :) 

The very next day at 2:00 we signed all the papers!

We celebrated later that night and had a special dinner in our new home! 

Because of our excitement we didn't get many pictures in  but no worries, there is much more to come! We just walked through the house and looked over everything again, talked about where we wanted furniture and how we were going to set up the babies room. We set up the babies room that night and I will post some pictures soon. We have been slowly moving all Saturday and Sunday. The house is just a couple minutes away from where we are renting. I am so glad because I can just load the truck up all week while Jon is working and take out a big chuck of the ugly moving we all so dread.
