Resolution's

So it's that time again, everyone at one point in their life have made them the good ol' New Year Resolution's I have made a few in my time and very few have I fallowed through (head hung in shame) I have thought alot about it this week and this is my list...

LOOSE WEIGHT:
1. loose 5 lbs of worry.. I have been toting around, over things that usually fix themselves.

2. loose 5 lbs of guilt..in life there are some things you just can't "do-over" repent, apologize, move on...nuf said!

3. loose 5 lbs of hurts..I choose to lay them down at the feet of God, he promises me he will take care of the rest!

4. loose 5 lbs of unforgivness..it only causes 5 more pounds of bitterness to creep in who wants that extra weight??


EAT HEALTHIER:

1. Read the Word every day instead of every other day.

2. Do more devotions and less t.v.

SEE THE PHYSICIAN REGULARLY:

1. spend more time in prayer

2. Ask God and wait for his answer...

3. do more listening to him and less telling him what I think he should do..


So this is "The List" maybe not what you would expect for resolution's, but I thought I'd give them a try...Wishing you a very Blessed and Happy New Year!!

Back to the real world..with stomach pain...

First just wanted to give you a quick update on baby Stellan, MckMama (his Mother) reports that he is fairing much better still in the ICU but doing better so please continue to keep them in your prayers!

Here on Beech Grove Road Husband and I have had to get back to the real world and go back to work today, the kidos don't return to school til next week so things are still a little crazy trying to figure out who will go where...and seems that there is some sort of stomach bug lurking on the home front...I had a touch of it Christmas day and it has kinda been going from person to person here at the house...Cassie reports that she feels "yucky" Kane is on the couch with stomach pain and Chad has just taken medicine for a headache....with Chad the headaches have been going on for months he had a CAT scan last week results found nothing so we have been set up for the 27th of this month to see a neurologist he has been having a great deal of pain on the right side of his head and has developed a twitch in his left eye, so please pray that we will find the problem soon he is not happy about any type of doctor visits therefore he often goes without letting me know when he feels bad...I'll keep you updated on our doctor visit.
Praying each of you have a blessed and Happy New Year!

Please Pray

I wasn't planning on posting tonight, I had only logged on to my blog tonight to check up on one of my fellow bloggers who has a very sick little boy, So I thought I would ask all who would to take time out and pray for little Stellan, he is the son of MckMama you will find her blog to the right of the screen and can read all updates he is fighting a very nasty case of RSV that has went from bad to worse in a matter of days. I know as a Mother we can be overwhelmed when we have a sick child so please lift her and the family up and pray that baby Stellan recover completely.
