Where has the time gone?

I can't believe the last post was Emma's birthday!!!! We've celebrated Christmas, New Year, snow days, Valentines, Kate's 3rd birthday and Dave's 31st, and so much more! Taking the time to just sit and update a blog would seem so easily done, but apparently not! :)

Thank you to everyone who has emailed and says "catch up, we miss you" :)

We have had some good times and bad times but such is life :) God is good and His promise is true. The truth shall set us free,right? Absolutely! I'm reading this amazing book by Tony Evans called "The Battle is the Lords". We are in spiritual warfare daily. The problems that arise with family or whatever, doesn't come from "self" it comes from the devil. Whether or not you believe it, it's the truth. Unfortunately we've been let down by people. We will continue to be and we ourselves will fail daily. Not one of us is perfect nor have we "arrived". I've had a hard time when people suggest and live their lives like they are the perfect Christian and confess they have teachable spirits. When in reality, they do not. I think as christians, we need to be careful. So many time we get caught up in the "legalities" and stop focusing on the prize. We want to run to the nearest "friend" and catch them up on the ugliness just so we can caress our ego. We want to make sure that our anger, and hurt is justified and that friend will say so. Not right! Instead we should be going to Christ. He is the one that will be honest with us. True to us, never failing. He'll bring someone you'd never expect and speak truth through them. Whether or not you listen and learn is up to you.

God has been doing some amazing things in Dave. and I. I'm excited to see how God will pull us through and what His plan is for our lives. The lessons along the way are hard but nontheless needed. If you're struggling, just allow God to take control. Whether it be with family,friends, co-workers....He is in control. Just let it happen. Take a step back. People will stop liking you, people will gossip about you, people will let you down, BUT take heart-HE will not!

I will get some pics and organize so I can update my blog! The girls are growing like weeds and it's just amazing to watch!
God bless you and thanks for your prayers!
