My Father, my Love, You can have me......

Again, I was visiting a friends blog, actually same friend as with last music video, and they had a different video of this song on there.  I searched for one that I thought was better and I really like this one.  So inspiring with everything that happens in this fallen world!  God give me Your heart and Your strength to do what You ask of me in my part of the world.

Hope You're Inspired!

I was thinking this morning about my days in Bolivia back in the summer of 2004 that I had for a month or so and was missing them.  Missing living in a situation where I was more dependent on God, missing living in a situation where I was given more opportunity to live out my faith.  But maybe that is just my perspective, maybe I just take for granted my living situation now.  I still need God here just as much now as I did there and I have opportunities to live out my faith here just as much as I did there.  Maybe I am just intimidated by the American culture and way of thinking.  We don't see our own desperate need for God like people in other countries because we don't live in desperate situations like them.  But our souls are just as desperate for a Savior as the next person.  Our souls are destined for one destination after death just like theirs are, eternal life with God or eternal damnation apart from Him.

In my missing of those days, I tried to go searching for some of my teammates from that trip with New Tribes Mission and was not successful in finding those people in particular.  But I did find an old classmate from my days at New Tribes Bible Institute and found her and her husbands website and saw this video that goes exactly with what I am feeling.  Hope you enjoy and get inspired!

When You Find a Great Thing, You Better Share It!

Hey I wanted to share something great with all of you out there that actually read this, especially any parents.  I was introduced to these awesome Cd's about 2 years ago by my wonderful aunt who has always been such a great example in my Christian walk.  They are awesome for memorizing scripture, so if your child is in AWANAS or goes to a private school where they have to memorize verses, these would be an awesome tool to use, if the verses they need are on the CD that is.  The lyrics are taken right from the NIV Bible, and  feature some great artists you may recognize such as Matthew West.  It is very enjoyable for the whole family, it won't be one of those kids Cd's that drive the parent crazy, I promise, I love them myself at this point more than Titus!  Anyway they are put out by Seeds Family Worship and you may be able to get them at your local Christian bookstore, I got them through http://www.christianbook.com/ and I paid $10.99 AND the surprise that I found when I received it was that it is packaged by Seeds with 2 Cd's so that you have one to keep and one to share!  So you only pay $5.50 per CD!  That is a great deal for a great CD!  You can also get them directly through the Seeds website http://www.seedsfamilyworship.com/  for $12.98, they have all 6 Cd's available there, so check it out and I do have one song on my play list below if you want to check out the style, the song is called "Mighty to Save" by Seeds Family Worship (#55).  Enjoy!

"And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might.  And these words, which I am commanding you today, shall be on your heart; and you shall teach them diligently to your sons and shall talk of them when you sit in your house and when you walk by the way and when you lie down and when you rise up.  And you shall bind them as a sign on your hand and they shall be as frontals on your forehead.  And you shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates." -Deuteronomy 6:5-9

Happy Valentine's To You!

I thought I would post a cute video of our sweet man for you on Valentine's Day!  Sorry it is sideways, I thought YouTube would flip it the right way but it didn't, learning for next time for me.  Enjoy and remember to scroll down to music player at bottom of blog to pause the music so you can enjoy the sound on the video.

33 Weeks and Crawling!

I decided to rename our blog because I think the title with the description subtitle fits us more appropriately. I either write about Titus or the fish my dear husband catches..... both which bring me much joy and whom I am very grateful to our great God for! Let me know what you think of it vs the old one.

So Friday evening Titus started crawling pretty confidently. It is interesting cuz it is slow and steady and you almost don't know if it is really happening. I usually text our family as soon as he does something new in his milestones but I waited til Saturday to make sure he was going to keep doing it! He still army crawls sometimes but I think he likes his new found ability! We are so excited and wanted to share it with you all!   There is sound, so you will want to scroll to bottom of page first to pause music so you can enjoy!

And one more just for laughs!**

Auntie Becky got this Piggy Bank* for Titus. When you drop money in or push a button in it's foot it squeals and flaps it's ears. Very funny and cute and Titus wasn't even scared of it the first time we did it cuz it is probably as loud in person as if you turn your sound all the way up! He loves it but is quit distracted by mommy videoing him and the pig.

**This is my first video post so I hope it plays for everyone. You will have to pause the music to hear it.

*Donations accepted! Lol!
