When God's People Pray





This couldn't have come at a better time.
We have big plans to party it up tonight, full-on mayhem-style.
5 adults, 10 small children.

We'll be stuffing our faces with chili and expired-bacon salad.




And these.

It's a throw-caution-to-the-wind kind of weekend.
We've never been more ready.

    Sweet!!! Live it up, up, up! And please eat a pumpkin bite for me. I'm allergic to pumpkin - such tragedy.

    Ps. I had to look up PYT. I'm a sheltered loser!

    I have been praying for you and Nic.

    For Siley and M.

    For God to smooth out those rough spots, to fill in the cracks, to weave together these hearts and write beautiful stories.

    He will.

    Thanks for the text. "Blessed Assurance" was exactly what I needed to hear.

    xxoo

    I'm just popping in to say I love your blog. I had to catch up on the last few posts, and it mae me feel better- like I'm not the only one. The edges are so raw these days, and your words made me realize that I can do all of it. And that there are other women out there in the same boat. Thanks.
