Prayer Request...

My dear blogger friends...

please say a prayer for my little family- Cole, Ava, and I. We have been going through a very difficult and stressful time this year, and this holiday season is especially difficult on everyone. I will share more about it when I can. Which will be in April. :) But please just pray for peace and patience for our family.

And especially me. I am really struggling with bitterness and anger towards some members of our extended family. I know that this is not what the Lord wants for me and my heart and attitude. I don't want to feel this way, but it seems to be a daily struggle recently. And this is just compounded by the challenges we are facing as a family.

Thank you, and I promise to share with you all about my family's current challenge when I can. I know I don't like to be left guessing!!!!

Almost every day I am amazed at how much I need Jonathan to help me just get "the basics" completed. I know you must be weary and raw. I'm sorry there are extra things going on as well, and I just prayed that you'll have the wisdom and peace to navigate them in the right way. Thank you for all the sacrifices you, Cole, and sweet little Ava are making. It does not go unnoticed or unappreciated by me.

Rachel,
Not sure what your challenges are but remember that YOUR family is the most important!! It's hard when you don't have support but keep the faith.

"Dear Heavenly Father, I lift up my sweet friend Rachel to you today. God, I thank you for Rachel and Cole, and precious little Ava and for the daily sacrifice that they are making in your name and in the name of the freedoms that we enjoy each day. God, I pray for your peace and gace to rain down on this family. I pray that you would keep Cole safe, strengthen Rachel, and bring this family back together quickly. I pray that you would surround Rachel with your love through the many friends and family who love her and recognize how special she is. Heavenly Father, thank you for our Country, and for the brave men and women that you have called to protect what our Country stands for and was founded on. I ask all these things in Jesus' name, Amen"

Love you girile and I am always here if you ever need anything.
