Thx for stopping by, guys, and your encouraging words.

Today was a good day. I went to church, and Romans 8:28 was the key verse for the serman. Good food for thought about how ALL things work together, including bad things in life (LIKE our sitches). Just a good reminder that God can make good things happen from bad, and I just need to trust Him to take care of me.

I have a friend who adopted a 6 mth old baby with his wife 2 months ago. They are a very nice Christian couple. The mom changed her mind and took the baby back and they were heartbroken, and surely questioning Why?? Well, last week they got a call about a newborn they could adopt, and then on Wed got a call the first mom changed her mind. So, within a week they went from feeling devastated to having two babies! Just goes to show that God is in control, not us, and if we can just be patient and wait on the Lord, He will take care of everything!!

I finished my painting today, took the Christmas tree to a recycling place, tried to cut wood (but it was frozen), and feel really good about my productivity this weekend.

I picked up a Gary Chapman book I wanted to read called Hope for the Separated. I hope it will have some encouraging words.
