I guess I will boast.

Written 11/29/15

Today was hard. Technically, yesterday was hard. You see, I have this thing called Adrenal Fatigue that at first I didn't really actually think was a 'thing' but it turns out its definitely 'a thing'. Some days I preach truth and press on. Days like yesterday, I give in to depression and despair despite the truth that I know. I barely got the kids to Redeemer Stillwater and just wanted to be able to get my kids there without having to push through sheer exhaustion but that's my reality. So my plan was to sit during worship. After all, I didn't have the energy to stand. And oh how those songs ministered to my soul:

Present Day:

Again...no idea what songs we sang 5 years ago but obviously they ministered to my soul as songs most always do. And here is another short intro to a very challenging part of my life that hopefully I will write about soon. I thought about deleting these drafts I began 5 and 6 years ago but thought I would go ahead and post these tidbits of thoughts of mine.

Lord willing I will tell my story in the hopes that it encourages others to press on to love Jesus and live worthy of the gospel.

Well, I just re-read my last post and good news: I'M PREGNANT! Thirteen weeks and four days to be exact! God is good. Even if I were still waiting on baby number three...God would still be good.

But that's not why I'm writing. Not really anyway. You see, a little over 6 years ago God did a work in my life. I was sitting on a giant rock planted perfectly by God on the beach in La Barra when God removed an idol from my life.

Present Day:

Not sure where I intended to go with this story but thought I would post this draft from five years ago as is seeing how so many posts were about sanctifying work in my life while waiting to be pregnant again....oh how sanctification ramped up after Abbey was born. More to come on that later I imagine if I can resurrect this blog.

God has done great things. And I am filled with joy. But the road has been long and hard.
