Today is the day. Why not today?

     I have seen and heard about so many people starting blogs and never really gotten into the whole scene.  I still may not be.  I decided to make this one for me and my journey, my faith walk, a log for me of some sorts.   God has blessed me with a wonderful husband and three beautiful girls.  I love my job and I love my life.  Some times I just wonder about all the things in the world that are so wrong and wonder why God chose to bless me with the things that I have after all the sins that I have sinned and will probably will still continue to do. 
      So last night I had one of the best cell group meetings with my girls in awhile.  It was good to see them again after being on a break after so long.  Some opened up and it warmed my heart to see others offer advice to their peers.  You can tell how they really care for each other.  At the same time, it breaks my heart because I can see some of them sit back and be quiet.  They think I don't notice, When they try and hide their feelings or something it always shows through.  I love them so much but I don't want  pressure my girls, I just want them to know that I am here for them and they can always come to me and when they are ready to talk about whatever is bothering them I am sure Jenn or myself will always be available to talk. 
      So in exactly one week I will be on my first mission trip ever! I can say that I am so super excited to do the Lords work and be the hands of feet of Jesus, but to be honest that doesn't even begin to express how I really feel.  I started tearing up when I found out that I got to go.  I am so looking forward to going to Chicago and helping others, getting to know some of the teens better.
     I am hoping to get to call Kerrilynn for coffee or lunch tomorrow.  Nathan is off work so as long as the kids don't go crazy and she is available we should be able.  I am looking forward to it.  We have been trying to get together and do something since October.  She was such an amazing help to me on the Hocking Hills camping trip and is such an amazing person I look forward to getting to know her better.   
     For now this is me blogging :o)  We live by faith not by sight ~2 Corinthians 5:7
