Precarious Darious !

God has most recently blessed my husband and I with the raising of our Grandson, Darious Coleman, who will be two years old in August. Going through the testing of Crystal disappearing and both Ben and I coming together to raise a child *together* has been a tes tto our marriage, and a testimony to God's faithfulness in the realization that we are strong enough to endure this time, and most importantly, I see the strengthening of our relationship. Although I know both of us were looking forward to a time of 'just the two of us' , I have to praise God in his sovereignness, for it has been such a blessing to be given this opportunity to be an influence in his life and raise him as one of our own to grow in the Lord's light. Thank YOU God!

God Moments

I was reading a really great article today on "faithbooking". This is what I've been doing for several years that I call "scrapbooking my soul". Anyway, they suggested these topics, and I like them.. so I'm hoping to take a look at these and perhaps write something kthat speaks to the "God Moments" in my life. All it will take is going back through my journals, God does so much it will be fun to highlight the Best of the Best God Moments ! Here are the topics, just in case you want to do the same (okay, so probably no one is reading this, but hey, who knows?):

Amazing Rescue—a moment when God guarded you, healed you, rescued you, or made a way out for you.

Holy Attraction—a moment when God led you toward a healthier path, enabled you to resist a temptation, or inspired you to take the high road.

Unearned Blessing—a moment when God gave you an unexpected blessing or an underserved gift.

Revealed Truth—a moment when God spoke to you through the Bible, inner peace, wise counsel, or a God-inspired message.

Valuable Adversity—a moment in which God sustained you in a difficult time or made you stronger through the test of adversity.
