THIS....I am NOT! With HIM ... I have Grace!

I don't claim to be perfect...perfection is only in God, I don't claim to "know-it-all" for I would never be open minded to learn the greatest things of Life. I try to be good at what I do, but I do fail...I am human. Through my weaknesses God shows me where he strengthens me most and that is where I see his continuance to work in me. As a mother, I LOVE my babies to no end but disciplining them is where my guilt takes over....Although God's word says " A refusal to correct is a refusal to LOVE; LOVE your children by disciplining them."  Proverbs 13:24 (msg)  So, in his word I have learned discipline is LOVE ...He works through me at all angles of my life. He shows me.. what I would never see on my own and LOVES me in all my faults and has forgiven me for my sins. I use to pick up the phone for advice from a friend or family member...Now I drop to my knees with folded hands, knowing the true and solid answer comes solely from him! He is my GOD and he reigns. My children are learning as they watch us, as their parents to put God first....They ask with enthusiasm to say grace at dinnertime and before bed our 5 year old Thanks Jesus for all the family members he has. My 8 year old is now reading the bible and these are the things that mean most to me in our family. These are the moments that take my breath away. When we are in church during the sermon...when my husbands hands turn the pages of his bible to read along...that is what makes my heart flutter and LOVE him so much more! GOD is LOVE and he has shown me time and time again that without him....I cannot do anything correctly but with him ALL things are possible!! Enjoy each day and all his creations!
