A New Year

Well here we are 2009!! hard to believe it. The year promises to be just as busy as the last one was and even more so with plans to build our house :) There will be so many decisions and choices to be made so if we cross your mind, please pray that we will make wise ones.
There are so many things we have to be thankful for looking back on 2008, we had some very nice visits with friends from the south, made new friends,renewed old friendships (thanks in part to facebook :P) and have seen our children continue to grow and be healthy. On a personal note the Lord really worked with me in helping me find my place and role, which is a big answer to prayer and I continue to learn and grow where I am planted. I am currently reading 2 books that i am finding a great help. One is called "Don't make me count to 3" by Ginger Plowman, and the other one is called "Shephering a childs heart" by Tedd Tripp. If any of you are struggling as mothers I highly recommend them.
We saw a huge growth in our Sunday school this year when we were almost disparing what we were going to do. the Lord brought us many new children and we all have full classes of young hearts who need to learn about the Lord Jesus and their need of Him. What an awesome challange it is. I look forward to whatever the Lord sees fit to give us this year Good or Ill, it is always in our best.
I trust that everyone will know Gods greatness and see Him at work in their daily lives. god Bless and Happy New Year!!!
