Dearest,  I hope we get better soon.
Our little one is planning for his 4th birthday - he likes to swim and have plenty of balloons.
Our gentleman is already making decisions on his own.
And I wouldn't really want you to miss out on what they are doing.
And I would really want to share all my joys and pains.
All of a sudden, there are a lot.
And yes, I would really really want to hear from you.
What you are busy with, how you are,  how is it at work, the stuff.
I really miss you so much...
and I hope you feel the same way too.

Bow the Knee


There are moments on our journey following the Lord
Where God illumines ev’ry step we take.
There are times when circumstances make perfect sense to us,
As we try to understand each move He makes.
When the path grows dim and our questions have no answers, turn to Him.
Bow the knee;
Trust the heart of your Father when the answer goes beyond what you can see.
Bow the knee;
Lift your eyes toward heaven and believe the One who holds eternity.
And when you don’t understand the purpose of His plan,
In the presence of the King, bow the knee.
There are days when clouds surround us, and the rain begins to fall,
The cold and lonely winds won’t cease to blow.
And there seems to be no reason for the suffering we feel;
We are tempted to believe God does not know.
When the storms arise, don’t forget we live by faith and not by sight.

God wants to do more than I ask or think. He wants to restore good things to me in abundance. If I will focus on the right things, God will take my most horrendous battlefield and turn it into my greatest blessing field.

Excited for this season and looking forward to the next season! 

God is indeed a BIG God!
thank you Lord for I can always find my hope and my strength in you

Why, my soul, are you downcast?
    Why so disturbed within me?
Put your hope in God,
    for I will yet praise him,
    my Savior and my God.

On this day of your life, Christine, we believe God wants you to know ... that how bad things may look right now means nothing, - it's how good they can be with God's help that counts.
In life you can absolutely count on one thing, - everything can turn around in one day, in one minute sometimes. Don't you dare to give up, - you might be a moment away from a windfall.

Life is short
Time is fast
So see something positive in the negative
Focus on the good instead of the  bad
Put your security in Jesus
Put your hope in God

PRAISE YOU IN THIS STORM

I was sure by now
God You would have reached down
And wiped our tears away
Stepped in and saved the day
But once again, I say "Amen", and it's still raining

As the thunder rolls
I barely hear Your whisper through the rain
"I'm with you"
And as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise the God who gives
And takes away

 
And I'll praise You in this storm
And I will lift my hands
For You are who You are
No matter where I am
And every tear I've cried
You hold in Your hand
You never left my side

And though my heart is torn
I will praise You in this storm

I remember when
I stumbled in the wind
You heard my cry to you
And you raised me up again
My strength is almost gone
How can I carry on
If I can't find You

But as the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain
"I'm with you"
And as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise the God who gives
And takes away

 
I lift my eyes unto the hills
Where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord
The Maker of Heaven and Earth

Mornings are great!

Thank you Lord for this new day
Thank you for I have so many things to be grateful about
Thank you for my kids who sleep soundly beside me
Thank you Lord for I am awakened with the embrace of Aaron
Thank you for the sweet smell of my children
Thank you for my husband who works so hard to provide for us
Thank you for the sacrifice of being away just to work 
Thank you Lord for my job
Thank you Lord for my sister and my niece 
Thank you for Auntie Edna 
Thank you for all the memories of childhood
Thank you for creating me uniquely
Thank you Lord for all the things that You want me to do. 
Thank you Lord for I am another day closer to a sweet and happy marriage. 
Please give me strength all throughout the day to be able to carry out your perfect will.

Hannah's Prayer

My heart rejoices in the Lord; 
in the Lord my horn is lifted high. 
My mouth boasts over my enemies, 
for I delight in your deliverance. 

There is no one holy like the Lord; 
there is no one besides you; 
there is no Rock like our God. 

Do not keep talking so proudly
or let your mouth speak such arrogance, 
for the Lord is a God who knows, 
and by him deeds are weighed. 

The bows of the warriors are broken, 
but those who stumbled are armed with strength.  
Those who were full hire themselves out for food, 
but those who were hungry hunger no more. 
She who was barren has borne seven children, 
but she who has had many sons pines away. 

The Lord brings death and makes alive, 
he brings down to the grave and raises up. 
The Lord sends poverty and wealth; 
he humbles and he exalts. 
He raises the poor from the dust
and lifts the needy from the ash heap; 
he seats them with princes
and has them inherit a throne of honor. 

For the foundations of the earth are the Lord's; 
upon them he has set the world. 
He will guard the feet of his saints, 
but the wicked will be silenced in darkness. 

It is not by strength that one prevails; 
those who oppose the Lord will be shattered. 
He will thunder against them from heaven, 
the Lord will judge the ends of the earth. 

He will give strength to his king 
and exalt the horn of his anointed.

Space

Space...bar
Space...ship 
Space...craft
Space...suit 
Space...walk
Space...time
Space...band 
Space...man
Oh space, how deep and wide
Oh space, until when? 

No matter the space, God is bigger.  God is in control.  
This too, shall pass. 

Thank God for His grace. It never cease to amaze me.

Dear Mama,

I miss you so much.  I want to share notes with you.  I miss talking to you.

Dear Papa,

I miss you both so much.


Hugs,

Christine

I can't believe it!!! I'm blogging again!

Outlet?
Oh God, I miss him so.

Thank you Lord, for I am one day closer to talking to him again.
I woke up with a very painful tummy at 3am, wondering why. 

Then, I somehow related it with what I am going through right now.  Yes, I am in pain.  Yet, thank God for His peace and forgiveness.  

There is outpouring of challenges: in my marriage, in my son's academic standing in school.  But thank God for His grace.  I am in faith that He can turn around all these situations.
