2nd Ultra Sound

Today, Aaron and I have our second Ultra Sound ... I am filled with mixed emotions. During our last ultra sound, which started out great turned in to the day I would most like to forget ever happened. I relive that day often - but the Dr has different news. Because of that ... I am taking the day off from school. Although we have a match tonight, and I will be there for that, I know I will want some time to just be - and not rush from the Dr to school. Aaron and I can have lunch together, and spend some time with each other -not in a rush.

I am looking forward to seeing Jeremy again, he has become more active - especially when I sit after walking around the classroom, after dinner at home, and when I am laying in bed.

This morning from Joel ....
Trust God’s Goodness
Today's Scripture
“For the LORD God is a sun and shield; the LORD bestows favor and honor; no good thing does he withhold from those whose walk is blameless.” (Psalm 84:11)


Today's Word from Joel and Victoria
Believing in God and trusting Him is easy when everything is going well, and there doesn’t seem to be anything bothering you. But to truly declare God’s goodness even when trials and confusion surround you is really trusting God. God is so good to you, He wants you to grow, mature, and learn from so many different situations. So even when things don’t make sense, keep a positive attitude knowing that God has your best interests at heart. You don’t always have to figure it out on your own, or go around living with a chip on your shoulder toward life. You can choose to trust God in everything, and live freely experiencing His blessing in your life!

A Prayer for Today
God, thank You for Your goodness and faithfulness. My prayer today is that I might learn to truly trust You and Your goodness in all circumstances. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.


I have a second prayer request ... in addition to Jeremy ... this Sunday when Aaron was preparing for the Sunday service we experienced all sorts of set backs. The biggest was that someone helped them self to the speakers in the sanctuary - so we had no sound system. Of course we still worshiped and praised the Lord and the message was still shared - but it seems at Brookside we are constantly battling evil. Please keep Brookside Community Church, the neighborhood, and leadership in your prayers.


GRACE AND PEACE!

Lots of prayers for all of you!

I am going to have to share Joel's message over on my blog.

I still am not receiving his e-mails.

Oh well!
