A Little Excitement!

Not too much to blog about on this end, but I did want to share a little excitement (No, I'm not pregnant...that seems to be the million dollar question among people at church these days). Jim and I are going on a couple of vacations this summer and I cannot wait! I'm SUPER pumped about the first one - Disney World! We are going on an early anniversary trip for 8 days! My parents are letting us use their timeshare and we are staying at a fantastic resort!! Then, my mom called this afternoon and asked if we would like to go to Savannah, Charleston, and possibly Myrtle Beach over July 4...hello...yes! It's little things like this to look forward to that get you through the days/weeks. I hope everyone is having a wonderful week! God bless!

"I shall not be greatly shaken..."

"He only is my rock and my salvation, my stronghold; I shall not be greatly shaken."
Psalm 62:2

I was reading the Bible and came across this verse. It touched my heart so much that I almost broke into tears. The past month has not been a fun one for me. Lots of various things have happened and are still happening that are bringing me down to a serious valley. Things that make me wonder about plans for the future and make me doubt. I'll admit, I haven't been in a place where I have even felt worthy of praying or reading, having fear my prayers wouldn't go past the ceiling. When I read the part "I shall not be greatly shaken," I realized that no matter what happens in my life to bring me down, God is sovereign. He loves me because I am his child, and he will not ever desert me. My sweet friend, Jenny, told me today that God is not going to leave me hanging and forget about me. When she told me that, I was reminded of what Philippians 1:6 says, "For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus." He still has work to do in me and He's not through with me yet! I pray that I will remember this on a daily basis. His will and His timing are perfect! Praise Him that he knows my plans better than I do!
