On Thursday Lance and I celebrated three years together. Now, remember, we aren't married, but every year seems like a triumph. When I got pregnant with Alex we had only been together 8 months; it was a total shock to our systems but there were no questions or doubts as to what we would be doing in 9 months: raising our baby, together. Its been an amazing three years with hopefully many more to come.
These last three years have been a HUGE time of self discovery. I discovered what it is like to love, then what it is to love as a mom, and most importantly, what it is like to love and be in a relation ship with the lord. For that relationship all I can say is YAY!! Its amazing. I've learned that a person can be all accepting reguardless of the sitatuion, hormal moods, and everything else that gets in the way of day to day life.
For those of you who follow this: I am going back to school this fall. I am taking pre-nursing classes and getting ready to start nursing school, hopefully next fall. Lets keep our fingers crossed and pray that God provides. I am still mourning that I cannot go to church on Sunday
and I even thought about finding a church closer to home (we drive at least 30 minutes depending on traffic to go to church) but the only one I found has appeal but no Saturday night services so thats a no-go.

It is great to see you celebrating triumphs in the midst of struggles. That is what changes you. You have persevered through much - you can do it. I know God has and will figure out a way for you to have the fellowship you crave with other believers. You are a great lady, Amanda.
ReplyDeleteHey! Tiff told me about your blog. So glad to follow along on your life's journey.
ReplyDeleteSounds like things are tough right now but you have the right attitude. Acknowledge Him in all your ways and He will direct your paths. He will provide a place of worship for you. One that will work for you. Wait upon Him. He will renew your strength and never leave you.
Awesome job on going to school and doing nursing. I wanted to do that before I got into ministry. It's a great career! I'll be praying for you and all your plans :)
God bless!
