Thankful

I am so thankful for my wonderful husband. He is definitely who I prayed for. God knows what He is doing. Through good and bad times, Robbie has always been there. He is a great listener and a hard worker. He is my best friend.
While I was growing up I was always scared I wouldn't find the right person for me. I was told I was too picky, but I'm glad I was though.
The first thing I noticed about Robbie was his servant's heart. If anyone asks him to do something, I know he will do it.
I'm so glad I'm his wife. He's just so sweet. He is my dream man!
God does give us good gifts. Robbie is my great gift!
Also, I know he will be such a great father. The way he is with kids is just so cool. Kids just flock to him. Our kids will be so blessed to have him as their "daddy".

The Lord is Good

As most of you know, Robbie and I had a miscarriage back in April. We've had a hard time with our loss. We are trying again though. For the first time trying again, I didn't think I would be so anxious. I was being really irrational in my thinking a couple of days ago. My family has been great. I have not been alone much, which is a good thing. I posted on my facebook page that I needed prayer. My friend, Tiffany, called me up within fifteen minutes! She is such an amazing friend and woman of God. I had other friends respond to it too. I say all this to let you know that God is a good God. He places people in your path to help you through hard times.

I read Ecclesiastes and found that God is all I need. Even if a child is what I desire so badly for, He is all I need. He has given me so much already, but even if I didn't have anything, I would be fine. He is all I need.

Sometimes God wants us to be in a situation where all we can see is Him. I have been in that situation a lot through my twenties. I was diagnosed with lupus at 21 and had severe depression for about six years. God took me through those trials, but I have come out stronger with Him. I know that God can help me through anything, and He can help you too. The Lord is good!
