Everything Is About To Change

I have so much to blog about, and so many things to say. I have been SUPER busy lately, and haven't had time to blog. Anytime I would have a moment to myself, and I would think "I can't possibly say everything I need to say in such a short amount of time, I will wait 'til later". I guess later is now. I titled my blog "everything is about to change", because it is. Two weeks ago, I signed a contract to become the lead Pre-K teacher at Childcare Network. This is a state certified Pre-K, which means I will have my salary back! That is going to change SO MANY things for my family by itself. No more collection calls, no more pay this bill this month and maybe next month we can catch up on the other, or skipping certain bills completely. No more worrying about how to pay for Christmas....why do I EVER worry?....or how to pay for Hannah's birthday party. The chance to dream again. Dream of owning our own home, dream of having more babies. One dream that we are beginning to save for now is the dream of taking a family vacation. Next summer, we are going to take Hannah to Disney World. We have had little celebrations here at home, but that will be our big celebration of what God has done for our family! And it will be our chance to vacation by ourselves as our own little family unit. :) Tomorrow is my first day at my new job, and I am so excited!

Another change that I am overjoyed about is the change in our church. For the last few weeks, something has shifted spiritually. We are changing, our worship is changing, our church is changing. The banner team will be ministering two times this month, and we are amazed at how God has used that to bring freedom to our worship. People are becoming excited about coming to church again! They don't want to leave when it's over! Pastor has been preaching on spiritual warfare, and it has been awesome. I know that the revival His word promises is on its way. In fact, I believe that it's already here!

Laura will be ministering in our a.m. service this week, and I CANNOT WAIT! I have always looked up to  and been inspired by her, but to watch her life and see how strong she has been since Scott passed away is amazing. Her life is a testimony to what God can do with a life that is totally surrendered to Him. I am in awe of her and of Him.

I have MUCH more that I want to say, but I hear my sleeping beauty stirring in her bed. Naptime is over. More blogging later.
