Praising Him

Thou art my God, and I will praise Thee:

Thou art my God, I will exalt Thee.

O give thanks unto the Lord; for He is good:

for His mercy endureth forever.

Psalms 118:28-29

Friends!

Ok, I am one excited girl right now!  One of my very best friends, Laurie, is taking me somewhere today for my birthday present!  The thing is, it's a surprise.  I have no idea where we are going.  She has been planning this since November!  I can't wait.  This reminds me again, of how very thankful I am for friends in my life.  I can't imagine what I would do without them.  Laurie, in particular, has been an amazing friend.  I can't tell you how many times she has brought us dinner, kept my children, arranged for meals for weeks on end during childbirth, surgeries, cancer treatments, etc. More importantly, she is such an encourager and great mother and wife to look up to.  Our friendship is one reason why Philippians 1:3 is one of my favorite verses.  I thank my God everytime I remember you. Philippians 1:2 NIV

Great Day!

Today was truly a day to make me think.  I was reminded to wait upon the Lord.  Keep doing what God has commanded until He says move, go, change, turn around, etc.  It was very refreshing to be reminded of that. Now to just wait. But, also while waiting He wants us to pray.  So while I'm waiting, I will be praying. And of course, as always, Praising Him!

What am I thinking???

I just decided to start this blog on a whim.  I do have those (whims) occasionally but don't often act upon them.  (Probably a good idea)  I am thinking, who really wants to read what I have to say or who wants to know what I am up to?  I decided it would be fun to do anyway and if not interested then they wouldn't have to read.  Sooo, here goes.  Enjoy!
