Power Outages & Sick Babies!

So...we had an insane windstorm from Hurrican Ike, and now everything is without power! Ben has not had work for 2 days because the center has no power...300,000 people in Franklin county are without power. My parents roof is a mess and there are whole trees down everywhere. Thankfully, we actually do have power (since I am on here, lol!).

Evelyn has a cold. We have all shared it in the family. Ben had it, then Evelyn and me! This is the second cold of her life, and the poor thing is miserable. She can't breathe out of her nose...it's sad :(

I am still looking for job...I keep finding these amazing opporutnites, and the family will contact me and then it seems for one reason or another it never works out for one of us. I know that God is control, and we have to just keep trusting.

There is a God who loves me
Who wraps me in His arms

CRAVE...

So this Sunday Night we are starting a Modern Worship Experience at our Church. It is going to run for the next 6 weeks. I am really excited about it. We had practice Thursday night for it, and it went really well. We are doing some awesome songs, and just exploring Worship through all of the senses and through different avenues (art, dance, food, etc.). Ben and I really feel like this kind of service is our calling...so we are excited to have the opporunity to do it.

are you feeling broken? wounded? joyful? complacent?

Rescue Me!

So, our house is a sauna...Our central air is broken. Someone is supposed to be coming this morning to fix it....but for now, it is a sauna. Isn't crazy how these things happen? Last week it was beautiful weather, in the 70's...but now that our air is broken, yesterday was 98 degrees not including humidity!



It seems like things just keep going wrong in my life. Ben and I feel like we can never get ahead. I know that God is in control, and that He never gives us more than we can handle. But sometimes I wanna say, "God, I know I CAN handle this, but I don't really WANT to!" I suppose it doesn't work that way. He will be my rescuer, just in time...



Evelyn is amazing. She is officially sitting up on her own now, and ate her very first bite of baby food this week! At first she didn't like it:

But she eventually came around...

So here is the cry of my heart...

I need you Jesus, to come to my resuce

Where else can I go?

There's no other name by which I am saved

Shelter me with grace...I will follow You...
