i am still alive…

Phew. Yes, I am still here. 
I apologize for being MIA on here, but life decided to throw a curveball at me last fall....and still hasn't stopped. Ha!
Here are some of the good & bad things that have been happening:
  • Restored marriage! After being pressed for 15 years with tears & intercession, God did the miraculous and restored our marriage. 
  • Church hurt on the deepest level, blind trust in spiritual authority figures demolished, witchcraft & slander attacks. 
  • Husband rededicated his life to Jesus and became a generational bloodline breaker!
  • Used & felt stabbed in the back by some friends & relatives. 
  • Had a bridal shower & a wedding for our oldest daughter! 
  • Unexplained eye issues, surgeries, and no answers from the specialists. 
  • Adjusting to having our daughter leave the nest. Rotating bedrooms and redoing everything!
  • My mother being diagnosed with cancer, as well as my mother-in-law having health issues. 
  • God answering prayers for new curriculum and homeschooling plans for our youngest two, for this season in life. 
  • Financial attacks, car wreck, car issues, disappointments in preconceived plans that are not working out the way we had thought.
  • Fostering my mom's kitty and integrating her together with our two kitties. 
  • Being thrust into the throes of perimenopause and all the crazy that comes with that. Totally was not prepared for that to pounce like it did. 
  • God planting us in a new church that works great for our entire family - solid biblical foundation, Holy Spirit flowing, no pride or fluff. We can exhale now. 
  • And a few other things...
    
    
So, it's been a wild ride, BUT GOD. 
I saw a pic on social media that about sums it up: 
I'm actually thankful for the warfare I experienced because there's a sacred and beautiful dependence that forms when you're forced to cling to Jesus for dear life. 


Scripture that I have been clinging to:
Patient endurance is what you need now, so that you will continue to do God's will. Then you will receive all that He has promised.                                            - Hebrews 10:36
