Another Saturday Night

Saturday night = not my favorite. We miss our church family in Nashville. We really felt like we had family at TCC. We had adults, families, teens, & ' grandparent age' adults that showed love & concern towards all 4 of us. We had a Sunday School class that was always supportive in every stage we have been through and provided much prayer, food,& money throughout Lucy's NICU stay. Landon had an awesome children's ministry with a lot of friends, and a girlfriend. ;) We had a great Mom group on Wednesday nights. Luke keeps saying, "There's just not a TCC here". Nope. But we are trying ;we'll try church #6ish tomorrow. There really is a big difference in home life when you're not plugged into a church and groups. I hated that Landon wasn't in a Christmas program too :(

We will get it figured out soon! Thank you TCC Horizons class & Motherhood & Children's Ministry for being so great to us. We miss you!

"Blessings"

Have you heard this song? This is one of the songs that I would bawl to while driving to or from the NICU back at the beginning of the year.

What if trials of this life

The rain, the storms, the hardest nights

Are your mercies in disguise.

  I think the lines that are not heard the first time we listen are these:

We cry in anger when we cannot  feel you near

We doubt your goodness, we doubt your love

As if every promise from your Word is not enough.

All the while you hear each desperate plea,

and long that we'd have faith to believe.

Go ahead and listen to the song after you hear the story behind it .(sorry you might  have to stop the band perry song below).

Say an extra prayer for some friends of mine. They've got another baby on the way & found out about some medical issues regarding his heart. Pray for peace for mom and dad until the baby comes. Pray for healing! Pray for the doctors, nurses, and surgeons who will be working with the sweet boy shortly after he enters the world. We love you guys!

"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."
Matthew 11:28

Ah Lord God! It is you who made the heavens and the earth by your great power and by your outstretched arm! Nothing is too hard for you. (Jeremiah 32:17)

And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.(Matthew 17:20)
