Birthday time...

My birthday is March 2nd and this year it was on a Friday so my parents decided to come down and spend the weekend with my husband and I.  It was so much fun.  We spent a lot of time visiting and shopping and just having a fun relaxing weekend.  So for my birthday dinner we decided to go to Texas Roadhouse for dinner.  It is Nathan's favorite restaurant and they just opened the one in Nampa two weeks before my parents were here to visit. 

Here are Nathan and I posing before dinner while waiting for our food...


Any my awesome parents...


After dinner the Roadhouse crew made me sit on the saddle
and wear a cowboy hat while they sang happy birthday to me.
(the camera wasn't on the right setting so the picture turned out a little dark)
It was a lot of fun though :)


After dinner they brought ice cream for my birthday so here is a picture
of Nathan and I chowing down on it : )

My parents and Nathan went together and bought me a Kindle Fire for my
birthday.  I had been wanting to try one for awhile.  I love my Kindle! My friend
Kristina got me a cover for it for my birthday.  here is a picture of my Kindle Fire with its cool new cover...




Here is a picture of my mom and I after a fun day of shopping!


It was an awesome weekend.  We had so much fun just
spending time together and shopping and visiting!!!!

Victory

Exodus 14:14  says "The Lord will fight for you and you shall hold your peace." When you are in the middle of a trial, it feels like it is never-ending.  Will we be able to conquer?  Will the battle plan actually work?  The devil just keeps attacking and the battle feels like it just won't stop.  Even when we know the battle plan is solid and we know what to do, it is hard.  At times, God tells us to hold our peace and He will fight the battle for us.  Do you know how hard it is to just surrender control to God?   God has been dealing with my heart lately that we need to start proclaiming the victory over all situations.  Over the sickness that we are fighting, over the stressful situations that you may be facing, just proclaim victory over your life.  We need to proclaim God's victory.  He wrote the battle plan.  He knows what your future holds.  God even understands the stress from the middle of the battlefield.

Walk with God

In my current Bible study, we are reading in Genesis.  At the beginning it is talking about how God comes down in the cool of the evening and talks with Adam and Eve.  Can you imagine that?  God literally comes and walks and talks with Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden.   Then in Genesis chapter 6 verse 8 states "Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord." and then in verse 9, it ends by saying "Noah walked with God."  Think about that for a minute.   In a world where everything is going crazy and God is questioning why he made the world because there is so much evil in it that He is going to send a flood and destroy the earth.  Can you imagine the world is as evil as it gets but the Bible states "And Noah walked with God."  That is such a profound statement.  Can you say that about your life?  No matter the chaos in the world or what is happening around you, people look at your life and all they can say is "And Valerie walked ...

Impossible!!!

1 Peter 1: 7-9 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: 8 Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see  him  not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: 9 Receiving the end of your faith,  even  the salvation of  your  souls. What is your impossible situation?  What is your I need a miracle situation?  I heard these lines in a song recently and it got me to thinking about how sometimes situations in our lives seem so impossible and out of control.  We just don't know what to do about it or what to think about that situation. I read the above scripture in 1 Peter last week and it got me to thinking about how gold is refined by going through fire, diamonds are mined from deep within the earth.  We wouldn't have the beautiful jewelry and precious me...
