Faithful and True!

My Daddy used to sing a song in church - I don't remember all the words, but I remember the chorus. "He's been faithful, faithful and true."
This week, we're having VBS every night at our church. I had set my sights on potentially having 40 kids. I figured we would have around 25 and maybe we could encourage the kids to bring friends.
The first night, we had 42 kids! We have had great adult volunteers who are excited to be there.I know that some incredible things are going to happen this week in these kids lives! I can't wait until tomorrow's lesson in learning to trust Jesus! I'm so thankful because I know that we couldn't do any of this in our own strength but He is making all things possible!
The only way that any of this is possible is because
He's been faithful. Faithful and True!

Closing out the year 2024

New Year's Eve. . . the end of a year that makes you reflect back on the last 365 days. Most of us are looking forward to the new year and some of us are looking back and wondering where it went! What happened to 2024?! What do we even have to show for it but some bumps and bruises? It's been a wild ride, ya'll!  But reflection is a good thing, right? Taking time to skim over the year and look for highlights and lowlights and facing the disappointments and celebrating the achievements - these are important things to do. So what were some of my wins and losses? What a great year! Celebrated 1 year of working for the church Traveled internationally with hubby several times Started year 2 of our ministry school Got a dog (a BIG dog) Graduated a kid from Bible School Started a kid at a private school (step of faith) What a tough year! Experienced a flood of sorts at the church (broken pipe) Got banned from entering a country Got a dog (a BIG dog) Moved adult kid back home (pare...

What in the world is going on?!

Ok, so I haven't written a blog post in forever.  And there have been a few things going on in my world, so I thought it was high time to catch you up. Where do I start? Highlights: - Church building is up for sale (lots of interested parties), any day now - Looking for acreage for church but most affordable in size we need are FAR away from Spring - Let's move the church 30 miles away! Willis, TX here we come! - Laid off from job of 15 years, to throw a kink in the mix - Let's move our family first so we can 'make it home'! - But first, Christmas holidays and all the fun! - Look for rentals, find a rental house, get approved and register kids for new schools in less than a week. - Move family into beautiful, weird rental house near the lake and start taxi mom life. - Work on painting and fixing up house to put on the market, done (multiple showings every day), also any day now - Kid #1 makes baseball team, kid #2 is playing golf and has already played in...

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. . .

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, I wrote a blog. Posts were few and far between at best. I was working 40+ hours a week at a job. There were 3 children at home with various activities and none were driving so taxiing was my side hustle (unpaid, grueling hours). The Hubs was working 50-60 hours a week pioneering a church and starting a side business. So much has changed since the last post, that I contemplated scrapping it all and starting fresh.  Or should I?   Always a challenge to get all my words out, I hesitate to even write this one. But I will provide a catch-up for history's sake... Kid #1 is graduated and trying to be a grown-up on his own in a different city.  College courses, which are mostly online because of the big 'C', working almost full time and a girlfriend keep him pretty busy, but not too busy to call his mama every few days.  Especially when the bank account is low.  Kid #2 is finishing up his last year of high school and living hi...
