happy new year

happy new year, tomorrow is paul;s birthday and mon journeys so i am making major cupcakes and cake.hoping and praying, knowing in gods number system 8 is significant, this will be a glorious year................2007 had a lot of hard hits, although i must say on a ministry level it was awesome.rose and i both received from one of our friends the book, taking the field, and in it it explains gods purpose for reaching out to others. so we will be back in prayer for the next month seeking god for our next step. i have felt this like i need to be in prayer step back and reevaluate. relationships have been built, needs have been met and we will continue that but god has so much more. isaiah 61 the spirit of the lord is on me, because the lord has appointed me to preach good news to the poor. he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty for the captives, and release from darkness the prisoners........................whatever god does will fall into this word somehow. well back into prayer and we will move when god speaks.............

chrismas

christmas eve at our house was nice, my mom and sister renee and boyfriend scott my brother dennis and laurette ashley my niece who gets bigger and bigger everytime i see her, taller than me. wow. alicia and owen, jordan and laura, justice, destiny christian, and of course journey and caleb. paul and me, our house was packed, everyone chowed and exchanged gifts and it was nice. god is soooooo good. the spiral ham and the choclate cream pie as always were hits and were devoured. it took the kids over an hour to open their presents and i didnt have hardly any money and have learned over the years to not go overboard but paul who never is extravagant went totally overboard, which totally shocked me. but we all pitched in and got him this awesome leather love seat recliner and he loved it. all i did was pray for the things i wanted everyone to have and god was faithful. praise god.................merry christmas

been awhile

havent blogged in quite awhile, having trouble with this computer, been very sick and bit off a lot more than i could chew in the last few months. i am now in the process of downsizing my life. God first..............my husband then family, then ministry.food pantry is good, received a large freezer yesterday, thought whoa god what are you going to be doing with that? if he fills it as i suspect he will, we will definetely need more teams but i got scared for a moment,,but of course He has it covered. we ahve given thru god and the genorsity of others sO MUCH...praise god. we still have no permanent pastor and i remember complaining to my self about it one day and god clearly reminding me of the israelites in the wilderness, i repented fast. whenever god is ready, it is HIS call. and we ahve so much to be thankful for during this time, he has done so much in us and thru us, how could i complain.? well if anyone is out there still reading please pray for me with this awful cold. god bless susan
