OK, so it has been a really long time since I have blogged. Our laptop went kaput and I can't ever seem to sit down at the other computer. (Don't know why it is different but it is). Oh and then there has been basketball and dance and more basketball and now baseball. I am so proud of Bayley...he made little league and it looks like he is gonna get one of the catcher positions!!!! this is Paige's first year in basketball and she is doing really good. It keeps us going but it is worth it!!!
I am so glad it is finally starting to warm up a little bit!!!! I barely survived the winter this year. We went to see Hawk Nelson a few weeks ago and then we saw Mercy Me last weekend. They were both so Fabulous!!!! At the Mercy me concert they talked about making a difference and it hit me if we would do 3 simple things we could make a difference. If EVERY child of God in the whole world would do these thing and not just once but everyday, we COULD make a difference. The 3 things that came to mind for me was to Pray, to Love (unconditionally), and to Live a life pleasing to God
Pray: pray everyday all day for everyone and everything. When someone makes us mad...pray. When someone makes us sad...pray, and even when someone makes us glad...pray and praise.
Love: Love everyone because God does. Don't just love everyone, show love to everyone. God created everyone not just the ones who act as we feel they should, God created everyone and loves us all the same, regardless of whatever life we choose to live, so in return we could try our best to show that same love.
Live: live a life that pleases God. Try each and everyday to do better for Him. Learn God's Word and store it in our hearts Let His Light shine through in ALL we do. Make people think "I want some of what they got"
It seems so easy to do these three things but yet I myself struggle with it each and everyday. I get caught up in everyday life and myself that I let things slip through the cracks. I am going to ask myself every night before I go to bed "How did I make a difference today?" I hope from this day on I am not left with nothing at the end of a day to answer with. With all of that said..I love you all!!!!!
