Pride?

Hi everyone!

I have been away for a little while because, well, things have been a little crazy around here. I had a fun weekend with my family. I went to Chicago with my sister-in-laws. It was a lot of fun! But... that's not what I want to talk about.

I'll try to get right to the point. I think I told you that my husband is opening his own practice. He was planning on being ready by the first of the year and is busy getting everything coordinated. He's basically... running around like a chicken with his head cut off. Am I allowed to say that on this blog? Oh well, it's true. I'm still trying to avoid letting the stress get to "us".

Anyway... I set up a website for him so patients can find him via the internet. I made a page on iweb. It's very easy and it gets his name out there and shows his phone number, etc. So that's a good thing!

Okay... this is the part that I am struggling with. I have a sister who is an "expert" at the computer. Working on the computer is her job. It pays her bills. She knows how to make her website be the first to show up on top when a search is being done. She was helping me last night to get my husband's to show up because we wanted it to work quickly so his patients can find him.

For some reason when a search is done typing in his name, my blog shows up from the time it was his birthday. Sorry, I am rambling, but the point I am trying to make is this... My sister suggested that I delete my whole blog for awhile and change it to his! So he can use MY blog to get his name out there. I DON'T WANT TO DO THAT! I LOVE my blog and all of the friends I have met along the way... and, I'm just sorry, but I cannot do that. This is a christian blog and I want to keep it that way! I hope it doesn't mean that I am being selfish or that my pride is getting in the way.

I hope this is NOT the case..."I AM AND THERE IS NONE BESIDES ME!"

So... I am not going anywhere! I love you, siestas! You probably don't even know this, but you are part of the miracle of my life and my marriage! Thanks!
Much love,
Angie xoxo

p.s. If you want to check out my husband's website you can. But... I think I will be deleting it soon. What do you think? It's on my sidebar if you want to check it out and give me some feedback. It's pretty obvious to find.

So Thankful this Thursday

I cannot tell you guys how much I appreciate you sharing Bible verses with me this week. I do not know where my life would be if I didn't have His Word and the love and support of my sisters in Christ! (Abby, Kim, Jackie, Jill, Jean and many more!) I am more grateful today than I was yesterday!

Psalm 34

1 I will extol the LORD at all times;
his praise will always be on my lips.

2My soul will boast in the LORD;
let the afflicted hear and rejoice.

3 Glorify the LORD with me;
let us exalt his name together.

4 I sought the LORD, and he answered me;
he delivered me from all my fears.

5 Those who look to him are radiant;
their faces are never covered with shame.

6 This poor man called, and the LORD heard him;
he saved him out of all his troubles.

22 The LORD redeems his servants;
no one will be condemned who takes refuge in him.
Thanks, Fran & Shonda

There is a book, "A Wise Woman" by Erin Thiele that is chock full of ways to be a better wife. It has loads of Scripture and I have a copy by my nightstand.
Thanks, Annie


1 Corinthians 10:13 (NRSV)

No testing has overtaken you that is not common to everyone. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tested beyond your strength, but with the testing he will also provide the way out so that you may be able to endure it.

Psalm 56:3-4
When I am afraid, I will trust in you. In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust, I will not be afraid.

Isaiah 41:10
So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Philippians 4:6-7 and 13
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Thanks, Kat

Hebrews 10:36 helped me:

"You need to persevere, so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what He has promised"
Thanks, Jen

I will be praying!
2 Cor 5:7
7We live by faith, not by sight.

Eph 5:21-33
21Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.
Thanks, Jenny

Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Thanks, Chris

I Thank God for every single one of you... now I can go and have a good day at work!
Love you,

Heavy Duty Prayer Request

Hey Siestas!

Today was a big day in the life of my husband (and me). I cannot get too specific on this blog, but will you PLEASE keep us in your prayers tonight? This involves my husband and his job. He is starting a new business and things will be getting pretty stressful for us starting... TODAY and TOMORROW and these next several months! I want to keep believing God to do HUGE things in our lives. I want to be a supportive wife. I want to be a supportive wife. I WANT to be a supportive wife!

If anyone can think of any scriptures that might help me be a good wife during a stressful season for my husband and myself I would be MOST appreciative! I don't mean to be such a drama queen, but right now I am one! Please forgive me!

Galatians 5:22-23
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.

It is such a comfort to know I have a team of prayer warriors from all over this country... and beyond! I am so blessed. THANK YOU!

Holy Spirit come and fill this place...
I Love You,
Angie xoxo

A Fresh Word Tonight

Feeling especially grateful tonight for His Word...

Proverbs 12:25
An anxious heart weighs a man down,
but a kind word cheers him up.

Love you-
Angie xoxo

Part of His World

When I saw a friend's daughter dressed in her Halloween costume the other day, I was reminded of a movie I love. Yes, it's The Little Mermaid. When I was working out this morning, guess what song came on my i-pod? This one! Listen to the words. The Holy Spirit is amazing...

This Daniel study is really getting to me. If you've done the study, you'll remember this clearly... "I am, and there is none besides me." I want to be different. I don't want to have the Babylonian mentality. I want more than this world can offer! The "stuff" I collect doesn't mean anything. I want to be in the sun... SON. I want to be part of His world!

He's all I need!
Love,
Angie

p.s. I know, I am way too child-like... but I'm okay with it!
:)
