Moving

Well, Nathan and I decided to buy a house, we will be closing at the end of the month so we decided it
would be a good idea to start packing up our apartment so we can pack a little bit every day and have it all
done by the time we are ready to move.  So of course, you know the first thing you have to do when starting to move?  It is to collect a lot of empty boxes to put all of your stuff in :)

Here is a picture of the boxes stacked in our
guest room.  There isn't much room to get in the doorway!



We decided it would be a good start to start in our
back closet that collects a lot of our stuff.  Here is Nathan sorting 
through some of his stuff to see what to pack next....


Packing and moving are so messy.  This is what our
floor looked like after about an hour of working....


Nathan is boxing up the stuff in our office.  He 
is trying to decide where to put all of our DVDs :)



We haven't gotten to far yet, but slowly we are getting
our apartment all packed up and organized so when we move
to our house, hopefully everything can be put away easily.

More fun pictures to come as the house packing and moving continues 
over the next few weeks!!!!

Our words make a difference

Growing up, were you ever told, "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all?"  I remember being taught this when I was pretty young.  Our words matter and if we can't say something nice, it's better not to say anything.  In today's world, especially with social media, it seems that a lot of people have forgotten this message or maybe were never taught it to begin with.  Another childhood saying was "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me."  Unfortunately, this saying is not true either.  Words can cause lasting damage that is very difficult to overcome. We need to be mindful when we are speaking that our words are used to encourage and uplift one another and not used to destroy each other.  There is a scripture verse that I have been meditating on this week and it is listed below.  It states that our conversation needs to be seasoned with salt, but also full of grace so that we know how to answer ...

Trust in God

Today while watching Superbook with my children the theme of the episode was to trust in God.  "Trust in God and He will show the way."  Do we really understand what it means to trust God?  Can we truly comprehend this statement?   It's easy when things are going our way.  It can be easy when things aren't going our way, but life is still going well.  However, do you still trust God when life is hard?  When everything seems to be going wrong in life?  Do you trust God through the hard stuff?   There is an old time song that says "The God on the mountain is still God in the valley.  When things go wrong, you know that He will make them right.  The God of the good times is still God in the bad times and the God of the day, is still God in the night."   Think about the words to that song.  No matter what, God is still God.  He still has control over the outcome.  Recently, my mom and I were talking an...

God's timing

My kids love to watch Superbook, it's a cartoon about Bible stories.  Today the episode was about Lazarus and about God's timing.  This past weekend I heard a song on the radio and I can't remember the song, but one of the lines talks about how faith can move mountains and God can still perform miracles today.  I have been thinking about those two lines this week, how God can move mountains and still perform miracles today.  Do we have the faith to stand and believe this statement?  Then watching Superbook with my kiddos this morning, it was all about God's timing and that sometimes God has a better plan for us than what we can think or ask for. Have you ever felt when you were praying that you just didn't know how or when your prayers would be answered?  Sometimes, it doesn't feel like your answers are coming or that your prayers are going anywhere.  Did you know that God still hears each and every one of those prayers?  It just might not be His ...
