Our Calling to Embrace

There are times in our lives when blessings come along

completely out of no where...

no warning~

no forethought~

ones that seem SO unlikely and illogical.

But NOT to God... He knew all along!

Times when the ONLY explanation is GOD!

I have read several posts lately about this very subject~

we are not called to a life of complete order

where we are able to figure it all out and plan every single choice.

If that were true, why would there be a need for God?

My sweet friend Melody posted~

God doesn't just call people that have it all together...

He calls the people that sometimes seem the least likely.

Then, as they rely on Him alone to provide

(whether it be finances, change of heart, or whatever),

He gives them exactly what they need to do what He has called them to.

It just takes stepping out IN FAITH. If it seems logical and you can figure it all out,

then what glory does God get in that,

if there is no risk, no sacrifice??

We step out IN FAITH when it seems IMPOSSIBLE to US!!!

God steps in, does the IMPOSSIBLE and gets the glory HE ALONE deserves.

So, I challenge you today to STEP OUT--if it doesn't make sense to the world

and those around us,

SO WHAT??

Life is a vapor...make a difference for Him.

So many people have asked lately about

the wedding,

the two graduations,

the many dr visits with SJ,

not to mention all that goes on day to day.

"Are you so stressed about it being just 10 weeks away?"

"How do you do all you have to do?"

All I can say is, "It is completely God that allows me to

Embrace all we are living right now."

God alone is to be glorified in all the blessings He pours on us each day.

I honestly believe there are no coincidences...

only God's Will~

He knew it all along and has allowed it to come to pass.

When I chose my word this year

~ Embrace ~

I thought I knew everything I would be called to embrace...

With all that said,

We would like to introduce one of the biggest blessings we have ever had...
