I crave my alone time and nothing is more perfect than spending about 11 hours in the car driving to spend time with my children. This time it was to North Carolina... :)
John challenges me in so many ways. He asks me difficult questions and always makes me think. He is a first year law student and let me just tell you that my brain hurts after spending a few days with him. (It's a good thing.)
I wish I had a good argument to prove why I believe in God and trust Him with every part of my life. All I have is "my" testimony. Is that selfish? This kid God entrusted me with needs facts. I wanted to refer him to someone with better answers. I guess I'll just have to leave it up to the Only One who can possibly teach him this lesson.
I'm thankful today for God's perfect timing.
I found a new favorite song...
Much Love,
Angie xoxo

Ang,
I'm glad you got to spend some time with your children. I've been thinking about you and praying for you even tho we have never met. Your testimony is one of the greatest things you can have. Sometimes I find it hard to talk to people I love about God. I go by faith not needing to know the why's and they want the why's. We plant the seed and God takes over. Look up Michael O'Briens song "If I say Nothing" if you don't already know it. It's my favorite song.
Love ya,
Linda
Angie,
You are such a gem! I can't imagine how much my brain would hurt after spending some time with your son. ;-)
Love to you,
Yolanda
Ang,
I am so thrilled you were able to spend this time with your family. Just being able to share the experience of this trip has created a sweet memory for all of you I'm sure.
As I read your post...I am reminded of Pastor Greg teaching from Genesis 22 about Abraham and Isaac. We live on God's promises not explanations. That is how Abraham and Isacc were able to accomplish the miracle we read about.
You are living on God's promises and not always able to provide explanations because I believe in your trusting Jesus, the explanations are not necessary. If we could explain everything, why do we need to have faith and trust. It is the not knowing how and still trusting that God is and can and will do exactly what He promises.
Thank you for blessing my life today.
Another Song I must Sing.

Sending love to you and yours. Jean
This song brings tears to my eyes for our children. I hear your heart's plea and join you in prayer for our kids to know Jesus, and, meanwhile, He knows the desires of our hearts, especially this one, His own desire, that all be saved. Let them be safe, Lord, in Your arms.
All that car time, with all that you had on your heart--bless you, dear friend. So much for you right now. Love, Annette
Spending times with our children is such a blessing.
Hugs sweet friend!
