This is part two of the previous post for creation versus evolution. It may
post twice but I thought it was worth getting it on here. There are so many
honest educated men like Patrick Mead and Ken Hamm and so many others
who have done such a wonderful job exposing evolution as it's own unique
"religion" and requiring far more FAITH than the that of an intelligent designer
and a purpose and synergy here that can only be explained by the God of the
Bible being the God of the universe.

Anyway, I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season and that Christmas
entered the minds of you all!!!

In Him

Well I guess I had less to say than I thought!

It's been a year and three months since my last
post and it feels even longer! I've been through
some tough times and I am much stronger for it.

This summer I started working with some of the
members of my Church to start a Celebrate Recovery
program. I considered myself "recovered" from the
brokenness of divorce and anger issues. Well the
past two months, I had to face some dark demons
from my past and deal with the fact my childhood
wasn't as rosy as I would have myself remember or
that I would ever (gasp) admit to others.

Celebrate Recovery is a great program that was born
of of Saddleback Church in I believe California. Anyway
it's wonderful for anyone trying to get past their "hurts,
habits and hang ups" It is similar to AA but focuses on
Christ as the "higher power" and fits for far more than
just one particular "A". In my opinion the "A" is just a
symptom of whatever is broke inside a person to begin
with. For me, service was my addiction. I would and
did about kill myself trying to serve others so I wouldn't
have to face my own issues. It was so much easier to feel
others pain than to not only feel mine but even acknowledge
I had any pain in me. It took some pretty extraordinary
circumstances but God did His thing and I am released from
some painful "muck" from my childhood and have established
new boundaries for my current and future relationships.

I did tons of writings during the painful times and some of it is
really good. I plan on posting some of my experiences and
insights as time allows!

God is so good and I am thankful for these difficult months. It
really burnt away some chaff I needed to be released from and
I think I will be a much better Christian, Wife, Mom and person!

God is Good and He will use us as much as we let Him!!

In Him even more,

Ok it's official, the cyber world has invaded my life.. Here I
was "minding my own business" (not really I guess) enjoying
ONE website thefatmanwalking.com and dear Steve suggested
reading Josie's postings on thelosthawaiian.blogsport.com
Well, I liked what she had to say so much I decided to
send her a little comment and I now have my
own blog???? Public beware! I have opinions bursting
out of me almost all the time.

I'm a 36 year old, mother of 4..... I have a gorgeous
15 year old ( I could write ten pages on the love
story that is my firstborn!!) girl, a smoky
brown-eyed 14 year old stepdaughter who is
going to rule the world someday quietly from her
computer. I have an 8 year old who I have always
called my "joy-boy" because he is 100% happiness.
and finally, with my second husband, I have a 20
month old girl. She and my stepdaughter are the
gifts I get for trying so hard to get it right with the other two.

I have a wonderful husband of four years who is another
gift to me from God for something I never realized I did
somewhere in my life.

K.. nuff about my family here on earth.. I can't go on
without saying I am a Christian, I love God.. I believe
He loves me more than kind of love I'll ever know here.
He's been with me when I was eyeball deep in the muck
trying to get out myself out and after lots of flailing and
treading about.. I finally gave in... asked Him for help,
and he pulled me up washed me off, dressed me up in His
finest and promised to stay close to me if I promised to stay
close to Him. poof.. there's the big mystery there.. For me
that's all it took.. now there have been times in my life I
chose to take one step away, then two, then more and
inevitably wind up unhappy or worse.. down to the
marrow in my bones miserable... and I take a step
back to Him.. then another, the one more till I feel
myself back next to Him with the joy that comes
from a personal walk with Christ. K there's the disclaimer,
don't be surprised if He comes up from time to time, you've
been warned.
I have done the "career" thing, but am now living
my dream. Ok folk are you ready??? trumpets
sound... I stay home and raise my kids.....WHAT???
Did you all hear the trumpets squeak, stop and the band
give a collective, "huh??" I'm serious though! From the
time I was beating my brains in trying to work two jobs,
coach my daughters volleyball team, volunteer in her
classroom and juggle being the secretary of the PTO,
I have wanted to do that kid thing as my full time gig.
Some of you read this and chuckle knowing of what
I speak but I figure most of you are like, are you nuts???

Lets just end this "official blog page #1" with this...
Mom loves kids more than anything else you could
try to give me or make me earn.....
Mom loves hubby and thanks God every day for
bringing her such a wonderful, loving man!!!!!!
Mom loves God even more than the others above
and can barely wrap her brain around it..
have a blessed day!!!!!!
In Him (and loving every second of it)
