Month of Thanks: Days 10, 11, 12, 13

We've had a crazy week/weekend with our lovely daughter getting into trouble at school and then Saturday a water pipe busted and flooded our front/side yard, so we were without water for 36 hours or so, and wow...life has just been hitting us pretty hard!
BUT, I give thanks none the less!

Day 10: Today I am thankful for my first born: My beautiful daughter Aspen Allayne Milam. God brought her into our lives in October of 2005 with the news that we were pregnant...and she was born June 10, 2006. She brightens my life and truly changed the way that I think about so many things. I love her so much!



Day 11: 2 things today:
1st, all Veterans of our country. I am thankful for their willing sacrifice to make our lives in the United States free and blessed.



2nd, one of my best true friends ever- She has been here for me since we were children; she has been there through many mistakes, many heartbreaks- laughter, fun, trouble, miracles, pain, blessings, and lots of love. You fit the meaning of a true friend, and I thank God for you today, this 11th day of November, on your birthday! Happy Birthday and I love you, Amy Mort Dial.



Day 12: Today I am thankful for my mom...my kids' Mamaw! We don't see a lot of eachother, but even miles away we feel her love! She has helped shaped my life in many ways and I am so thankful for her!



Day 13: I am thankful for Women's Bible Study Cafe---online women's Bible study group---I'm very busy, full-time job, and mother of two, and can't always make it to in-person Bible studies multiple days of the week. But with an online study, I can sit at home and discuss God, His Word and what He is doing in my life, with other women from different states. Tomorrow we begin James:Mercy Triumphs by Beth Moore! I'm thankful that God has given me this way to be in contact with other believers!

~~Prayer & Moving~~

Hi all my bloggy-friends! People may plan all kinds of things, but the Lord's will is going to be done. Proverbs 19:21 GNT I've got a short post for you today and if things go as planned (which hardly ever happens), I will blog about the first half of Nehemiah this evening after the kids are in bed and the house is quiet :) First off, I need to ask for prayer. My best friend's father is in the Critical Care Unit in Little Rock. He became unresponsive on Sunday evening and has been in/out since then. He is undergoing many tests including MRI, EEG, spinal tap, etc. Please pray for him and his family. Pray for strength, comfort and peace for my best friend Cara. This is a heart breaking situation and I am not able to be at the hospital due to work and family, so the only way I can send my love is through prayer! Thank you in advance dear friends! Also, my family will be moving between the 1st and 15th about 15 miles north of where we are currently. The reasoning behin

All I Need

Very short blog post today, but what a message! This song was my worship time this morning on my way to work. I woke up a little bit late, so I had to rush into getting ready for work and ended up skipping my quiet time, other than prayer while doing my hair and makeup :) This song came on the radio as I was driving. I turned up the volume and sang at the top of my lungs. I am in awe of how faithful and wonderful the Lord is. With one hand lifted and the other on the steering wheel, I communed with God singing the words below....most importantly, "You're more than enough for me. Jesus, You're all I need."  Can you feel His presence today in your life? Can you see His glory everywhere you look? I don't need all of the riches of this world or high status...I only need Him. I only want Him! Give Him your worship today. Don't worship this world and it's deceiving modern day idols... Jesus alone is deserving of our everything! You hold my every moment
