Time's up

Well ....it is the end of the three week vacation for Tyler.  He is to come home tomorrow night which cannot be soon enough for me, lee or Caleb.  I don't like so much having my children away from home.  Even though I was told by Tyler this week that he really didn't miss me and wanted to stay another week, I think he does, he  just didn't want to let on around his cousins.

My sister is getting a taste of not having her children tonight.  Both boys wanted to spend the night with us.  Caleb and Trevor are still up playing games but Trent poor boy was all tuckered out climbed onto Uncle Lee's lap and fell asleep.  I am so blessed to have my sister live so close by.  Not only has she helped me out with the boys while I am at work and they are bored and want to go somewhere.... But she my best friend.  It is a rare thing for us not to talk on the phone daily or even see each other every other day.  It is funny when we were little we fought but still tolerated each other.  We became teens and didn't want to be seen with each other.  We became young adults and fought with each other.  Now we are heading into our mid 30's and are best friends.  God has truly blessed me with a remarkable and enlightening sister who helps me along my spiritual journey and encourages me through every day.

I have been contemplating a lot of things lately  (no one be concerned I am not going to jump off a bridge or anything lol)...  It is amazing how God reveals His will for your life and what direction he wants you to go.  While I am still trying to figure out all the plans HE has for me I am encouraged to know that He is Lord, there is no other one.  No matter the trials that we have to face HE is ALWAYS there to hold us up and lead us in the right direction.  It is the listening that I have a hard time with SOME... Times.  So many things happening in our lives right now and in the lives of some dear friends.  As I think and pray for them daily even hourly sometimes I am reminded that NOTHING is impossible for God for HE knows the plans he has for each of us, all that will bring GLORY to HIM.

So if you are having a bad day, week, month or year..... Keep smiling, reading His Word, listening, and praying.  GOD IS IN CONTROL.  Just let Him take the wheel.
