Normal life is beautiful! I know when I find myself thinking about what I should do with my time and how I am going to get the motivation to lose some weight, life is easy!! So thankful as time has gone by Alisha's brain has continued to heal and her headaches are subsiding and her life is almost back to normal! With a few glitches here and there, we could not be more thankful! While I love normal, I pray that by God's mercy He will continue to Transform our minds, that each of us might prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God!!
Today I am excited for my 3rd child Abby Lynn! She has not been the focus now for a while, but as we get back to spreading out time as a parent, I love touching base with my little girl!
Abby Lynn has been considering baptism for quite some time now! It was something she believes she a Christian is called to, but was so worried about speaking in front of everyone! (our church will let the kids do a video testimony, but her dad and I thought she needed to be willing to obey even when it is hard) I think there have been three baptisms that have come and gone at our church that she has sat and watched. You could see the guilt in her eyes as she would choose to wait, but that was her choice and I just encouraged her that God always helps us do what we know we should do! Well last Sunday on our way home from church she heard church was planning a baptism this Sunday. She thought about it for a quick moment and said "I want to get baptized!" She told me today that when she finally decided to do it, she felt so good inside! I enjoyed reminding her that allot of Christians don't ever decide to do what God asks them to do, because they are afraid, or it doesn't make allot of since or any other reason people disobey! I pray that Abby Lynn will continue to feel awful when she chooses to disobey or wait to obey and extreme joy when she chooses obedience!
