Love Story..

Last Night I took the kids to see the Easter Musical at Hillcrest. I have been saved since I was 9 years old and the story of Christ's Love still brings me to humility. I loved watching the play with Sydney on my lap asking a million questions and holding me tight during the hard scenes. Although I may have squeezed her a little tighter too as I fought back the tears.

Christ keeps revealing to me how much he loves me, even in my failures.
We have been reading "The Jesus Storybook Bible" with the kids at night and It is an AMAZING LOVE STORY of Christ coming to rescue us. I highly recommend it for family devotion time!

Focused On Christ

This past week at church the message was about knowing why we do what we do.. And being confident in doing it and sincere about it..

I struggle alot with this..

I am constantly questioning ..

~ Am I too hard on my kids..
~ Should I homeschool them..
~ Why can't I keep my house clean..
~ Am I loving my husband enough..
~ Am I joyful..
~ What do people think of me and how I raise my kids..
My list could go on and on...

I feel like I am questioning everything in my life and so it makes it hard to do anything well..

I feel like CHRIST is saying .. "KEEP your FOCUS on ME"

I can not be confident in anything but HIM.. He has NEVER failed me..

When I am questioning everything, it takes my focus off HIM and places it on me and what I am trying to do

I pray that as these questions pop in my head .. I would seek Christ for TRUTH and who I am in HIM!

I need to be sincere and confident in being his wife and the mother of our children.. I need to be an example to my family of how to keep my focus on CHRIST
