You have been as well in many prayers over the past weeks. I'm totally confident that as the days and months progress, you'll be seeing amazing results from our gracious God who is always faithful to reveal Himself to those who earnestly seek Him.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12898521.post-72729748145368827752009-01-19T12:06:00.000-06:002009-01-19T12:06:00.000-06:00I wish I had some fantastic and wise words for you...I wish I had some fantastic and wise words for you, AJ. Those great words always tend to escape me. Your strength in these trying times is such an inspiration. In all honesty, while Clayton was gone this past week and Sam broke his arm - I really did think of you. I thought that if you can lean on Christ to make it through, then I can surely make it through but one week on my own! God is using you RIGHT NOW. He used you to encourage ME. You didn't even know it.. :)Mandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08249168087397426420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12898521.post-67582094324086714512009-01-19T01:42:00.000-06:002009-01-19T01:42:00.000-06:00it's a scary time, but it's an exciting time, too....it's a scary time, but it's an exciting time, too. i've always wondered how people without the Lord in their lives navigate these times of trouble. i guess when it's the only thing you've known, you muddle through. but we who have known life without Christ, and now know life with Christ, we know it is far better to have Him standing with us... carrying us even, when we can't stand.<BR/><BR/>hang in there, brother. a lot of brothers and sisters have got your backAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12898521.post-36260499958567013162009-01-18T21:48:00.000-06:002009-01-18T21:48:00.000-06:00I wish you could have heard our sermon at church t...I wish you could have heard our sermon at church this weekend. It was just on this thing, and it was AWESOME! I think they put it on their website, I will try to find it for you. <BR/><BR/>He was talking about the things we face, and how if we let him, God will wrap his arms around us to protect us, and to lead us to wonderful things if we can stay strong in him through out hardships. How awesome. It really got to thinking about my struggles lately. As I try to be strong in the Lord, and do things for him, I feel like the devil has brought me a lot of obstacles to try to pull me away. I have felt peace though, and I do believe that it is God wrapping his arms around me, and I know he is doing that for you. I think that it is great the direction you are headed, despite your hardships this year. The Lord is lifting you up. <BR/><BR/>I totally get where you were going with this post!! I hope my comment made sense.Mom of these kidshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05605360771922832135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12898521.post-54685159396296594672009-01-18T20:58:00.000-06:002009-01-18T20:58:00.000-06:00The Lord has awesome things in store for you.

You are an awesome Dad and your walk with God will only strengthen this. Drew is a lucky boy to have you as his dad. I am praying for you as you put yourself out there and stand on your faith. God will bless you for your faithfullnes. I am sure your Dad is smiling down from Heaven on you as you stand at this crossroad knowing you will stand with God, just as he always did!Terihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02066925856499216004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12898521.post-35614626312875356022009-01-18T20:31:00.000-06:002009-01-18T20:31:00.000-06:00After having Taylor and going in and out of hospit...After having Taylor and going in and out of hospitals, trying to take care of her (being special need) and still trying to keep up with our everyday life I thought "okay God what do you have in mind for Jason and I". We never questioned where our lives were being guided. When Taylor passed away I really started questining WHY. I can't remember who told me this but someone said "God will never give you more than you can handle". <BR/><BR/>Years later when Jason was hurt in the accident once again I had to keep in mind that God will never give you more than you can handle. At this time I really started questioning and thinking..."God I really don't think I am as strong as you think."<BR/><BR/>While our situations are not quite the same I understand what you are going through and I know by your faith you will survive. At times you may question it BUT you will work through it!<BR/><BR/>Good luck in your travels!bowling1https://www.blogger.com/profile/09174796225015779246noreply@blogger.com
