Its a boy!

Another happy day for our family! Its a baby boy! 

Father, you are too good to us. Despite all the troubles and obstacles, Your face smiles brightly. How can I ever thank you for such a wonderful gift?

Dani will have a partner now. Just like me and Joey. I can't imagine any other amazing bond. Thank you that I get to share it with my children. 

Father, we choose to see the good in everything. Life is too short to focus on the bad. Make us live a life of direction and purpose. To always look up to you, Lord. 

Having a son will open our eyes even more to the life that you have laid out for us. Let this new life breathe in new strength for us. As always we lift him up to You. May he grow in your light, Lord. 

Grant us the wisdom and discernment, Lord. 

In Jesus' name. Amen. 

Deuteronomy 1:29-31

Then I said to you, “Do not be terrified; do not be afraid of them. The Lord your God, who is going before you, will fight for you, as he did for you in Egypt, before your very eyes, and in the wilderness. There you saw how the Lord your God carried you, as a father carries his son, all the way you went until you reached this place.”

Smiley Sunday

Blessed with the loves of my life. Our God is awesome! 

Happy Sunday! 

I will never leave you nor forsake you. —Hebrews 13:5

Look for God in your difficult place and discover what He’s doing in and through you there.

Restorer and nourisher

Ruth 4:15 

15And may he be to you a restorer of life and a nourisher of your old age… 

That is why when Moses died at the age of 120, his eyes were not dim and his natural vigor was not diminished. (Deuteronomy 34:7) Caleb, at 85 years old, could still drive out the giants from the land. God had literally nourished his body and made it strong for war. (Joshua 14:11) Sarah was certainly rejuvenated in her old age by God for she was still desirable to a king at the age of 90. (Genesis 20:1–2) God even renewed her womb. She received strength to conceive seed (Hebrews 11:11), giving birth to Isaac in her old age. 

Beloved, God is outside of time and your faith in Him brings you into this timeless zone. There, what the years have stolen will be restored. And even as your years increase, you will not grow weak and weary because the restorer of life and nourisher of your old age is in you! - Joseph Prince

Philippians 4:6-7

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Psalms 27:13-14

I remain confident of this:

I will see the goodness of the Lord

in the land of the living.

 Wait for the Lord;

be strong and take heart

and wait for the Lord.

Psalm 91:14

“Because he loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him;

I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.

 He will call on me, and I will answer him;

I will be with him in trouble,

I will deliver him and honor him.

 With long life I will satisfy him

and show him my salvation."

Our God is Jehovah and there is nothing that is out of His reach. We look up to you, Lord during this trying time. 

For the eyes of the Lord range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him... - 2 Chronicles 16:9

First and Last in your day

There’s never a day nor a season

That prayer may not bless every hour,

And never a prayer need be helpless

When linked with God’s infinite power. 

—Morton

Let Christ be first in your thoughts in the morning, and last in your thoughts at night.

Good evening, Roxas City! 

Simple pleasures, wonderful memories

Dani and Liam having fun with the hose. You can't beat those smiles. Can't wait 'til they take their first bath in real rain. If I weren't pregnant, I'd be the first one in.
