Proverbs 16:8 "Better is a little with righteousness than a great revenue with injustice."

Pastor Ken is talking today about assessing why you have. Are you trustworthy of what God has already given you before He gives you more? I've been in a season of testing lately. My washer is broken, and my first response is to say I need another one. Well, why about fixing what I have?

God is no shocked by the circumstances that come our way. He knows what's currently happening as well as what's on the way. He is God! The big question is, what am I going to do with it?

God, no matter how much or how little I have, I want to find myself righteous to you!

I have so much to be thankful for. I don't know why I worry so much about the dumb little things. All I need is the Lord and He is so amazing that He provides for us. I'm not just talking about money either... I'm talking about the times where I listen next to Hannah's door and can hear her snoring in her sleep, or when my husband looks at me and says "I love you."

Matthew 18: 2He called a little child and had him stand among them. 3And he said: "I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 4Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

What I see here is that it is the heart of a little one, like my daughter, that I need to have. She believes that mommy could fly and that daddy can save the day. She never doubts mommy and daddy because we have proved to her that we wont let her down.

Why cant I believe for big things like my daughter does? Why cant I count on God through EVERYTHING like my daughter counts on us? Sure, I get around to trusting Him after I've had my moments of doubt, but why can't I instantly trust and obey? I need to remember that with Him all things are possible. Nothing is too big or too small for Him. Mommy and Daddy will make mistakes, but God will never let His children down.

I pray that you are all blessed today... if you think about it, please go over to and pray for the Freemans. Read their story. They will show you what incredible faith looks like, and they will also make you stop and be thankful for those blessings you, and I, often take for granted.

Its moving day and I've been an emotional wreck! I am so grateful for my dad making a way for us to move back to CA and get back on our feet. My dad never ceases to amaze me, and he does it with a quietness and selflessness that I hope I can emulate one day.

It will be like Christmas opening our boxes and seeing all the things we own! You see, we haven't seen anything in these boxes for the past year and a half. Christmas in May... its a good thing, and I am so grateful for today! :)

Stay tuned...
