Ok So I do the bulletins for my church (and another church) and this week one of our verses is 2 Corinthians 12:6-10. I usually read the verses so I know what the Pastor is preaching on or just to get my "God" on. This week a particular verse got me. The part that struck me was verse 9, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." That is just an awesome example of the love of Christ. This verse means to me that God's grace is endless. That when we are weak, with God we are really strong. Verse 10 says, "For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities; for when I am weak, then I am strong." This verse is so true. When I am going through a hard time I just give my problems to my Father and He makes me strong again.
My goal this year is to made my life verse. The verse that gets me going when I am down. I think this one takes the lead. (We shall see.)

So I think I'll start agian..........................
So I haven't blogged for over a year now and I've decided to start up again. So in the last year ALOT has happened. My Aunt Beth passed away August 16 2008, my Grandma Baker passed away June 3, 2009. Also my best friend's sister, who was just married only a week, passed away at the age of 30! I know your not supposed to question God's motives BUT I did a lot of questioning then. But I understand now there is a reason for everything. So it's been a crappy year. But God needed some pretty awesome angels!! He only wants the best. After all my losses this year I'm happy to report I have a even stronger relationship with my Lord and Savior. I know that my Aunt Beth and Grandma Baker are waiting for me up in heaven. That's what keeps me going and helps me not get to sad. I have a new motto or saying for my life now, "I am only in the passenger seat in this car ride, God is the driver." On a happier note, Megan is 2 1/2 now! She is talking like crazy and driving me nuts. She has a HUGE attitude, which I'm sure my Mom would tell you I had it coming to me. Megan is so much like me. But you gotta love her. She's going through a phase where everything she owns' name is Little. But today she's started to call one of her babies, "Baby Maddie". Who is named after our pastor's baby girl. (Maddie is SO cute.) Megan loves her. Scott and my relationship has grown in many ways. We are getting very close. Which is awesome. I've been praying about that for awhile now. We have taking our house off the market this last weekend in hopes of adding on to our existing home. Which is VERY exciting. We will hear some time this week on how the appraisal went. Well I can't get this stupid computer to download pictures on here but I promise I'll figure it out soon!
