Just so in awe of the Lord

I can not tell you enough how amazing, how humbled, how joyous, how utterly in awe I am in the presence of the Lord.
How, to sit back and watch Him move in our life, to see His glorious plan unfold, it is truly indescribable.

We were at the breaking point. We were at the brink, the edge, and the only thing we could do is to take a leap of faith and jump into the arms of the Lord. The past 6 months, the move to Texas, the job search, the financial trials, all of it. The Lord brought me to a place where I had no choice but to give it to Him. To rest in Him.

When I finally gave Him my life, full reign, amazing and miraculous things started happening.

To see Him, to really see what He can do, is so humbling. Who am I compared to the Lord? Nothing is impossible for Him. Nothing is to small, or to big for Him. He loves and cares for all of us, no matter what. But to really see Him move in my life the way he has, it is breathe taking.

I never could have imagined, that He has had us in His hands from day one. I had nothing to worry about because He was in control.

We have a home, we now have two amazing jobs, we have two awesome boys. He has brought us back. Revived us. Breathed fresh life into what was once broken.

He is our healer, our leader, our guide, our comforter, our wisdom, our shoulder, our SAVIOR.

I have to say, if I had a choice to do this all again, I would. Yes it was hard. Harder than anything we had faced as a family, but it has brought me face to face with Jesus. And, this is a place I never want to leave.

Lord thank you for everything. I don't deserve any of it and I could never repay you. But you give anyways. Your love is beyond description and your grace is inconceivable. Thank you.

Well so much for being a better blogger ha!!
So I wanted to let you all know some great and wonderful things have been happening in my absence!!!

To start with, EJ is crawling!!!! Can you believe it??? Right now it is an army crawl but so adorable. He can now go forward instead of having to roll and scoot everywhere. Oh I love that babe! Also we started sleep training, and he is back to sleeping in his crib! Praise the Lord! He is sick right now with a really bad upper respiratory infection, but is on meds so I pray he gets better very soon!!!

Austin has now been going to the preschool class at our new church. Our new church is AMAZING. I can not tell you enough how much I love it. Anyways, he loves his class and his teachers. He only goes on sunday for one hour, but it is so good for him. It is at least some practice before school starts up next fall. I cried the first day, because it was the first time I had ever left him with a stranger...ever. Can you believe we have never even had a baby sitter before? The only other person who has taken care of him is my MIL. So now you see why even just this one hour is very important!!

Adam has a new job. I wont tell you the name, but I will tell you that it is a national bank and he has regular hours and regular pay. No more commission!!! Whoohooo! He loves it and we are really looking forward to growing with that company!

As far as I am concerned, besides my new hair do (cut short and back to my natural color) I have some very big news. I have a job! Not just any job though. My true dream job. I work from home and have amazingly flexible hours. I can do it all when Adam is home or when the babes are sleeping. I can not tell you how great this is. Plus I know the company well as I have worked with them in the past. Now I get to work for them! God is so so good ALL of the time. It is amazing and mind blowing to watch HIS plan unfold.
I am still doing my photography, but much more as a hobby for now.

So I have good reason to be absent. Life has been going at a neck breaking pace but it is wonderful. Big changes, wonderful changes and I embrace them all.

God really is good....
