So....here we are. Sometimes in life we cross roads, unexpected turns are made. Well, In September Keith and I found out that we are going to be parents... to a little mighty T... I was 6 weeks along when I found out that I was pregnant. Shocked...nervous, and a little unsure how things were going to unfold. God is good, and such a loving God...merciful and full of compassion.

We all make decisions in life...positive or negative. Each choice and decision that is made has a resulting conclusion. Either a reward or consequence. Children are a gift from God, irregardless of our human decision making. God will turn things around, even when we as believers get off the road. He, God is so good to help us navigate back onto the highway of life. Heading in His direction, headlights on.... leaning and trusting that He will lead us in the right way. The path of the righteous gets brighter and brighter(Prov. 4:18).

The journey thus far has been one that has had its challenges, heartaches, emotions,etc... because of the outcome of decisions made. Because we know the order of His kingdom...marriage, then starting a family. However, pressing forward and holding our head up High, pressing toward the mark of the High Prize for the upward call in Christ Jesus (Phil 3:14), knowing that we can DO ALL things through Christ, WHO STRENGTHENS US (Phil 4:13). God still has a plan, He is still going to use us... why??? Because we invite Him in, His love, His mercy, His forgivness, His grace is AMAZING.

Thankful for our church, JOY Church (http://www.joychurchinternational.org/) . Our Pastor and his wife, and staff and family have been very loving and encouraging. So thankful for Grace, and God's love and how He uses people to love on us. Let us come boldly before the throne of Grace to find help and obtain mercy in the time of need (Heb 4:16). Our pastor is a man of God, and we are so blessed by Him and the teachings of God that has inspired His messages for us, his congregation...and for all believers. A wise Pastor has shared that God doesn't come where He is needed (He wants to however,) He comes where He is invited. Have U invited Him into ur life, have u surrendered ur will to HIS? Let us learn from God, pursue Wisdom, Phil 4:4 Its the principle thing!

We are moving forward decided not to get married, and work on our relationship with God and each other and our current children. We are relying on God's healing power to change and transform our lives onto the path of wholeness.

We are expectant for our new little might T of joy... hope u will enjoy our journey together as we await the arrival of our mighty man or woman of God into this world on May 6th, 2010. Thinking it will be an April baby ...smile

Blessings of Joy
