"On the day I called, you answered me, you increased my strength of soul." Psalm 138:3

Through out our daily life, we encounter trials and stresses that begin to drain us of both patience and peace. It is at that moment we need to train ourselves to stop... STOP. Begin to breathe and count and as you do you allow the strength of the Spirit to fill your body with loads of new oxygen. This improves you physically, emotionally and mentally as you face what is there.

I can only begin to scratch the fullness of what Jesus faced... I would be terrified to the point of fainting or having a heart attack I am sure. His Father gave him the strength of soul to carry that cross and finish what was left for Him to do. Today affirm God within the strength of Spirit that is yours, no different than what was there for Jesus. Our small trivial trials are nothing in comparison, but our Father promises to walk with us through all of it.

Remember to call upon this inner power of Spirit whenever you need it. Breathe....slowly... and count.

Yesterday Stacey was over. She had a doctors appt and OMA got to babysit. What fun! Lauren is becoming a true little person with smiles and eyebrow raising... so adorable. Mom aka MEMA came by twice today to hold her and love on her. Uncle Kirk, my youngest brother stopped by as well. Other than that it was Terry and I leaving finger prints all over her...with kiss prints too!
Her Daddy will give her a good bath tonight and all traces will be gone.


SLIDE SHOW OF LAUREN'S VISIT YESTERDAY!



Remember to Count....

“The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of His being, sustaining all things by His powerful word. After He had provided purification for sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.” Hebrews 1:3
