So... I realize that I've been out of touch for like forever, I apologize. My internet is having issues again and so I either have to just check my internet when I'm at work or come to my friends' house like now and hack into their internet. The Lord is gracious and good.... That's what I have been feeling more and more in my life with the different people coming in and out of my life blessing in so many different aspects in life. I am just grateful for God's constant provision in my life...
I was a little unwilling to celebrate my 30th birthday... I was depressed at the thought of turning 30 and in a totally different circumstance than I would have ever imagined it to be. But this past weekend that changed. JM (Red) left a little something for me... a line of numbers 1-30 which we hung in the middle of my living room. CI's job now is to give me "a piece of love" every day from different people... so my daughter gave me a beautiful card... my sister sent me 30 things she loves about me... a friend sent 30 bible verses from the NT and then 30 verses from the OT of encouragement... i've gotten 30 oreo cookies and today i got a picture of my beautiful legs... :) The first night I kept looking at the line and I was ready to turn 30... It's not exactly how I pictured it, but the Lord has blessed me and I couldn't have asked for a better alternative. So many who love us and look after us!! What a blessing.
So all in all... I'll be turning 30 soon and I'm actually looking forward to the day!!
**I am hoping to get internet tomorrow... yeah**
Please pray for...
1. I have been having constant crown issues. I have had my crown put in three times because three times it fell out. It has been very discouraging. My FIL (who is a dentist) says I need to keep it covered... so tomorrow I will go and put the crown back on and I'm really praying that it will stay on til I go to the states in October.
2. Process for us to go to states... A needs to get her passport renewed (which has been a discouraging process for me. I went to get it done a couple weekends ago and they told me I needed P's death certificate... kind of felt like a nightmare that never ends...). After her passport is renewed, we need to get our visa renewed, buy tickets (praying for the cheapest flights out there), and packing... Please pray everything will go smoothly.
3. Wanting to make good connections with people before we leave... Pray for that... Jesus will be known in all relationships!!
4. Continued clarity in our future!!!
