Revival This Week

Revival went well tonight and we had a good turnout. The GuitarMan and his college roomate/best bud/bandmate led us in some awesome praise! They sang Blessed be the Name of the Lord (per Mama's request!), I Can Only Imagine, Lead Me to the Cross, and another song that they wrote JUST LAST NIGHT! They called me last night and wanted me to hear what they were working on. I always love to hear their music so they played it for me over the phone. I said, "You have to finish that and play it tomorrow!" So it was amazing. After church they played some more for a while and folks stuck around and listened. They have several upcoming opportunities to play at various churches and they have a big 3-day retreat in Panama City, Florida coming up, too. I am so proud of my boys and excited to see how God will use them!

Tomorrow night we have a guy coming from another town to sing. Bro. Mickey will continue his series. Tonight he spoke on teamwork and how we each have our place of service for God. If we are truly in love with Jesus then we will all want to serve Him. That will flow out into our churches and communities. Wow, if all Christians would grasp that and allow true revival to take place in their hearts just what could we accomplish for Christ?

    Angela,
    I hate that you aren't here! We were treated to a concert after the revival meeting tonight. It was a lot of fun. Tell The GuitarMan he owes you! :) Hope to see you soon!

The Season of Pregnancy (updated)

I know. I have been neglecting this blog. Horribly. That's not the only thing that has been thrown by the wayside lately! It is only for a season though. Pregnancy means you must be patient with yourself and accept that sometimes you must let things slide. That also means that you have to plan in order to conserve your energy. I know if I am going somewhere later today then I don't need to rush around and try to get a lot done in the morning. Priorities must be in order. Although the morning sickness is better it isn't totally gone at this point. Whoever named it that anyway? The main thing I have been dealing with is fatigue. My blog shows it. My laundry shows it. My house shows it. Ack, everywhere shows it! I simply do not have the energy to do the bending up and down required to truly clean up, do laundry, and the vacuuming/sweeping etc. It's quite depressing actually! So I do a little here, do a little there. I manage the necessities such as homeschooling, cooking, ...

Latest on GuitarMan

I haven't made a practice of sharing photos with a full facial view on here. However the GuitarMan isn't too worried about that LOL! With many of you praying for him I thought you might like to have an idea of who he is. He is still in a lot of pain. His fingers are all black and blue and his entire hand is swollen. His hand is cut straight across his fingers and across the bottom of his hand. Once again, very obvious what could have happened. He's blown away by everyone caring and checking in him and the prayers on his behalf. He says to thank you all!

Power Bills

We lucked out last month on our power bill. We received a credit on our bill which helped tremendously. A lot of folks were shocked at how high their bills were, however. I can't blame them! Some of the figures I heard were outrageous! $500-600, one even $1200! One thing that got me was that many of these people work outside the home and their children are in school or daycare so the house stands empty all day. Not only that, but their families are much smaller so things like the washer, dryer, or stove would not be used as frequently. Shouldn't their bill be lower than ours? I think it has everyone trying to come up with ways to save on power. There are some things that are a given. Good insulation and windows go a long way towards helping lower a bill. When we first moved into our home the windows were very old. Some were cracked or even broken. The church eventually replaced them which was a huge blessing! But what were we to do in the meantime? Well, one way is to buy th...
