Too long

Wow - I start a blog and then don't continue. A little over two years have gone by. I want to say today and I am so thankful for my life here in Pittsburgh. God has truly blessed our family here in this place. I truly see the work of HIS hand in our call to this church. He truly answered everything I prayed for with David's wonderful school and Christ Lutheran being a great ministry for Ron. Bonus - Miguel has such wonderful opportunities at the high school with band and rifle. Jonathan is able to use his talent in many ways with East End Kids and his dance/voice studio. Timothy is blessed with a program fit for him at the public school. All in God's hands - more than I ever dreamed.

Something profound

Wow! I am finally starting my own blog. It just seems that I should write something totally profound or creative. Sometimes being the mom of four busy boys just saps the creativity right out of a person! There are visions I have of the happy family happily going to church. REALITY...David is screaming because he wants his shoes on, Timmy isn't looking for his shoes, I can't find Timmy's shoes. The older boys aren't helping, Jonathan is not getting over to church to acolyte.

"Be still and know that I am God." I try to deep breathe as I sit in the pew, so I can let God service me today. Thankfully we have communion today, too, so I can "taste and see that the Lord is good." My spirit within is fed with the very body and blood of my Lord, Jesus Christ. Now I can rest in peace.

The day will go on, there will be more chaos, but I know I am loved by a gracious God.

Welcome to my blog!
