Here are a few pictures from Koltyn's Life so far. He is growing so fast and we LOVE him so much. Enjoy the pictures.



A Miracle Called Life

LIFE- What a miracle it really is! We recently welcomed our firstborn baby boy, Koltyn Henry, into this world and finally I am able to experience truly what a miracle life really is. Its amazing how God caused Koltyn to be formed inside of me, how he breathed the breath of life into him and ultimately choose us to be his parents.

Weekly Words

 I heard a song called 'While I'm Waiting' by John Waller. It reminded me to always wait on the LORD- not to run ahead! So often I want to figure life out but Jesus reminded me in this song to patiently wait for HIM! Hope you are encouraged by this song. Isaiah 40:31 " But they wait upon the LORD shall renew their strenght; they shall mount up with wings as eagles, they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint" What a faithful promise.

I'm waiting on YOU LORD

and I am Hopeful

I'm waiting on YOU, Lord

though it is painful

But Patiently, I will Wait

 

W will move ahead, bold and confident

taking every step in obedience

While I'm waiting

I will SERVE You

While I'm waiting

I will WORSHIP

While I'm waiting

 I will not faint

I'll be running the race

even while I wait.

 

I'm Waiting

I'm waiting on YOU, Lord

and I am peaceful

I'm waiting on YOU Lord

Though it's not easy

But faithfully, I will wait

Yes, I Will Wait.

 



Weekly Words

Lately, God has really caused me-actually forced me- to really stop and think about what this life is ALL about.. There have been different situtaions that have come up in our family's and friend's lives that really forced me to go Running into God's Arms for support and understanding. I have decided that every weekend I'm going to post an short write up called 'Weekly Words'. These posts will just be some sort of inspiration that I have came across during the week. I hope that through it all I will become more answerable for really diggin' into God's Word and to worship Him everyday of my life. I'm sure most of you also find it so easy to get caught up in the busyness of todays world so I also hope these words will be inspiring to you also.

My first 'Weekly Words' come from a song by Hillsong that I found on playlist.com when I was creating a playlist this morning. It is called 'STILL':

Hide me now under Your Wings

Cover me within Your mighty hand

When the oceans rise and thunders roar

I will soar with You above the storm

Father You are KING over the flood

I will be still and know You are GOD

Find rest me soul in CHRIST alone

Know His POWER in quietness and trust

When we stop and are quiet, when we stop trying to solve EVERYTHING ourselves, when we give it up to God that is truly when we 'KNOW HIS POWER' and feel His overwhelming Love. God loves you and wants you to go RUNNING.. actually SPRINTING.. towards Him so He can protect you under HIS MIGHTY WINGS.  I will definently remember this song this week and probably overplay it but what an amazing truth! Have a great week!
