Its in the moments when I wonder at what God is doing…
Its in the moments that I can’t imagine what is going to happen next…
Its in the moments when I’m unsure of what His plan is…
Those are the moments when He is most delighted with me. Not when I’m sure of myself, when I have everything planned out, when I know just how everything’s going to go, when I am in control.
Not when I know, but when I just trust that He does.
So let me learn that the cross precedes the crown,
To be low is to be high,
That the valley’s where you make me more like Christ…

Remember this little guy?
Well, he’s grown a little….
But still as cute as can be!
And so is his brother…

Countless times, I’ve sat down at the computer with the intention of writing something new to put on here. I haven’t written anything substantial in quite a while, to state the obvious. [grin] But unfortunately, nothing ever materialized.
A phrase I’ve been thinking about a lot in the last few weeks is from To Know You by Casting Crowns.
To know You is to want to know You more.
Wow. May it be so, that the more get to know the Lord, my desire for Him would increase, and increase, and increase … like a never-ending cycle. May I never feel that I have achieved. May I never feel that I know enough to get me by. May I always seek to know Him more.
Life is great, usually busy, and always a big learning experience.
I hope everyone reading this is have a great September, too. [grin]

During the month of August, my sister and I went to Iowa and Minnesota to help with four Bright Lights conferences. Bright Lights is a ministry to encourage and equip young ladies to be strong for the Lord in their youth.
Here are some pictures from the last few weeks.

My cousin recently had beautiful twin baby boys,
and we went to the NICU to see them for the first time this week.
You can imagine my excitement … :)
