Crazy Love

Has anyone read this book? I have been hearing about this book everywhere. Actually I'm pretty sure God has been asking me to read this book for a long time but fear has held me back from reading it.

One thing I vowed to God for my 90 day journey is to try to give fear to him and let him carry it rather than me carry it. The other day I got brave and ordered this book and it is now sitting in front of me but I'm honestly having a hard time opening it because I'm afraid of what God might ask of me by reading this book.

I'm going to do it though, the kids are asleep so I'm going to start reading. If you have read this will you tell me some of the things God called you to do after reading the book.

If you haven't read it you can watch this video below to explain a little about the book.

Here She Is!!!

I know most of you look at this and can't see the beauty that I see in it. I see a beautiful little yellow (OK, someday anyway) car that is full of stories behind it. Makes you wonder how excited the first person was that bought it? Maybe someone fell in love in this car? Maybe someone had their first kiss in this car?

Oh, I sure hope Chris can bring her back to life someday!

I do have to say that my dear hubby is pretty excited that I love something that looks like this. He has waited 12 years for me to go crazy over something like this.

Trying Out My New Camera

We have been so busy the last week I hadn't even had time to try out my new camera. Yesterday was my nephews 5th birthday party so I got a chance to play with it. Did you know that a camera should take a picture as soon as you touch the button? My old camera took about 30 seconds before it took the picture.

This is my nephew who turned 5.

This is Jaxson's cousin that he is totally crazy about.

This is my little niece that looks like an angel with her almost white hair. By the way she LOVES the camera and kept asking me to take a picture of just her.

Amaya was having a blast with this beach ball.

Do you think Paige likes cake?

Now you all need to tell me where I go to do all that fancy stuff with my pictures now that I have a good camera.

By the way I talked my hubby into buying me a convertible last night!!! OK, so most of you would think it was a piece of junk but to me I see a beautiful little, 2 seat convertible in my future (wayyyyyyyy future) but hey it was only $150. Yes, we are the proud owners of a little, teeny, tiny, 2 seater, 1972 MG Midget (Google it and you can see what it's supposed to look like). I think my little car needs to be yellow someday!

OK, gotta go. Have a good day and don't forget to give God some time today!

Thinking Out Loud

So......I have actually been giving God some time this last couple of weeks. I'll admit it that I'm not so good about that a lot of times. Yes, I pray all the time but sometimes I get so busy in my life that it's like I'm making a quick phone call to God and not spending quality time with him.

Funny thing is that when I started my 90 days with God 2 weeks ago, my life got sooooo busy that there just aren't enough hours in the day. I spend an hour and a half a day now working out. I actually spend time shopping and cooking HEALTHY food not fast foods. My giveaway blog is booming and I figure that God is blessing it and blessing shops through it so I work at it full time. Not to mention all the other things going on.

Somehow though I have found time to do devotions and have quality prayer time with God. Why couldn't I find this time when I wasn't this busy? Do you know what happens when you give God quiet time? You can hear his whispers!

Anyway the sermon last week at church keeps going through my head and these are the questions I have for you:

Do you make time to listen to God?

Do you let God rock your world and possibly let him bless your socks off?

or

Do you choose to live without taking risks and taking the "easy route?"

Just curious.


Now on to a new subject. I posted about 3 boys the other day and the response I got really surprised me. So again I am a little curious and wondering how many people want to adopt, want to bring God's children into their homes but don't know where to start.

Guess what? I would LOVE to help you figure it all out. God has filled my head with lots of info on adoption. Not only international and special needs adoptions but I know a lot of people that can help you no matter how you decide to let God rock your world a little with adoption or foster care. So why don't you rock my world a little and add a little more craziness to my day letting me help you find someone you can love? NOTHING brings a smile to my face like the day someones tells me God has called them to adopt!!!

Lookng For A Good Daily Devotional?

Part of my 90 Day Journey With God is to make sure I spend time with God everyday. I found a GREAT daily devotional online that emailes me devotions every morning. I have done some of these before but I really, really like the one I'm doing now. This one is short, easy to read but very powerful at the same time.



You can check it out here. If you have time to read your email then you have time to meet with God everyday!

3 Boys In Need of A Christian Family

A friend of mine emailed me this morning and asked me to spread the word about 3 boys (brothers) that need a family. They are looking for a Christina family for these boys ages 11, 10 & 8.

The boys have lost their mother and their father in not involved in their lives. They are currently living with their grandmother but she is ill and needs to find them a home. There are no other family members to take the boys in so they really need to find a family.

The boys love sports and going to church.

I you or someone you know might be interested in finding out more about these boys please email me at arewethereyetla5[at]verizon[dot]net.
These boys are in Indiana.
