I am thankful for my life. In so many ways....this week, especially, something has triggered random thoughts of being "thankful"....such as:
~Gideon, my 16 mo. old talking jibber-jabber...it's priceless
~Garrett my 4 yr old....well, it never ends, but every moment w/ him, is a gift. He finished his first year of preschool and this week, is his first week of summer. He has been asking to go to school, telling me what clothes he wants to wear to school and that he misses Mrs. Jessee. It's been so much fun, just listening to all the thoughts going through his sweet lil' brain. I love it!
JC and I are incredibly blessed to have 2 healthy, amazing little boys. I want more, don't get me wrong, but I am truly content. If this was it, & it was all God desired for us...than, I'm happy as a clam!
God is doing a work in JC and I right now. It's a very "stretching" period we are walking through, but I am thankful for it, b/c it only has drawn me closer to my heavenly father & has forced me, literally forced me, to depend totally & completely on HIM. The Father. It's HARD to do, but I know that in this "season" of growing & pruning, that is the only choice that I have.
Trusting the Father comes w/ risks. But WELL WORTH THE RISKS! wow!
I am amazed at when we've endured a "trial" of some kind, & then look back at how we got through it.....JESUS is the ONLY way we got through it.
All that said, b/c I want to remind myself that this life ain't easy...I am beyond blessed & have been given SO much, & just journaling my thoughts on this, is a beautiful way to really, truly think about ALL that God has done & IS GOING TO DO!!!!
Today is today. I'll receive it for what it is. It hasn't been easy, but I'm trusting the Father, no matter what!
ok, today I went deep...oh well. If you're reading and it's too deep, too much...GET OVER IT! hee!
Love to all....thank you Jesus for who you are & all you have done for me! I am eternally grateful!!!
More bloggin later!
