An eventful weekend

We had a very eventful weekend!

C Girl was very much sick on Friday and Saturday and it was so sad seeing her so ill.

Our church hosted the Living Proof Live simulcast all day Saturday.

I have never heard from Beth Moore and not been impacted in some way. 

Saturday was no different. It was amazing and very much needed.

Another local church hosted an IF: local event. I was so sad I had to miss that!

Saturday was also B Boy's first soccer game!!!

I snuck out of church for awhile to watch him play!

He did so good!

We thought C Girl was starting to feel better, but she was not completely well yet :-(

 We were VERY excited to watch the Razorbacks beat Texas Tech!!!!

We missed church yesterday because I did not want to possibly spread germs or acquire any more germs!

This morning, was C Girl's class's turn for Rise and Shine! 

She had a small speaking part and she did SO GOOD!!!

The song they sang was so cute. 

It was the months of the year in English and Spanish to celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month.

I've had quite an eventful afternoon. Poor Koonta has vomited multiple times and I had to clean up a big mess in our dryer from a rug that fell apart. That is life!

A stirring

I wrote this last night after a hard day and wasn't sure if I would post it or not-

Today did not rank as one of my best days. 
There were physical/hormonal issues that contributed to my state of being today. 
I was grumpy, impatient, and irritated at most things. 
I wish I were better at being a person who does not wear their emotions on their sleeve. 
I wish I had more patience. I wish I didn't snap or yell. 
I just read news of someone who passed away and was really pretty young-51. 
It snapped me back to reality. 
I just see how quick life passes, and how quick things can change. 
I pray for God to help me LIVE and be His servant and not someone focused on me or my own shortcomings. 
I pray for God to help me to LOVE and to give GRACE and MERCY to others. 
I know I need grace and mercy everyday, so I need to be doling it out too. 
I want to be a blessing and not a burden.

This morning I read this post of Kelly's.

After that, I saw this post from Jenn.

And then I saw this post from Ann Voskamp.

I've also read posts by two other bloggers in the past 2 weeks, one of which had a recent huge transformation by God, and the other is just so honest and real about who she is as a  person and as a Christian.

I've felt a stir in my soul for several years.  I know that things are supernaturally happening. What they are, I have no idea.  God is preparing people for whatever it may be though.  I feel that certainty in my bones.

I want to be prepared.  I always question whether I am prepared and what am I doing that is God's will.  

I need to stop questioning so much and just seek Him.  

I think we try to figure things out too much.  I just don't think most of it is ours to figure out.  Am I on my own with thinking that?

I also think that we get bogged down thinking about so many bad things happening and we don't always focus on the good and what God is doing.

Will this be a revival of Christianity, true Christianity?  Not the Christianity that the world sees or  how they view Christianity, but the real thing.

Don't you wish everyone could experience the true-ness of it and not what they see displayed in media?
"But in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect," 
1 Peter 3:15

I feel like I am rambling, but I felt like I needed to share all of this.  

Let's pray together and for each other.  

I feel like something we need to be prepared and to support each other, especially as women.  

We are the ones raising this next generation and I think they will be doing great, big things.
