Light of the world!!!

Does this ever happen to you? Your sitting there giving someone advise and then you hear yourself for a second and then it's like dang I need to that....I should take my own advice!!!! When a person comes to me and there experiencing hardships I always say...."There's a purpose....God always has a purpose, even though we don't know what it is yet!" I do truly believe this with all my heart....but in the midst of all the madness in my mind I sometimes forget it!!! God has a plan for all of us he knows what we'll face before we do and he knows why we'll experience the things we do!!! I sometimes find myself asking Lord what is the purpose of this....and I may not know it right away but I'm always able to look back and say "Lord I know what your purpose was!" Experiences like this always bring spiritual growth!!!

Jesus...it's me Jayden!!!

To all of my dear friends I speak to on a regular basis you already know this story but for those of you who haven't heard it...get ready this is too CUTE:I was shopping with my boys Joshua and Jayden and it had been a long day of back to school shopping...my patience were wearing thin and had been tested quite a few times by now!!! We had just left the one-millionth and final store for the day and I was putting Jayden in his car seat....well he decided he wasn't going to ride in it so he hopped out and said"mommy I'm sitting right here"to which I replied(looking up wailing my arms like a mad person): "JESUS help me to not hurt this child!!!!!And with the most sincere look Jayden asks "What did Jesus say?"trying not to laugh and in semi-shock I reply (with a delay of course): "Jesus said to hurt you!!"and in the cutest little whisper Jayden looked up and said "Jethus I thorry" (translation...Jesus I'm sorry)I thought that was the cutest thing ever....how could I stay mad then!!!! I planted a big kiss on his cheek and melted like putty.....he's too cute!!!!
