This will not be a long post because quite honestly if I think too long on the goodness, awesomeness, faithfulness of God, my brain short circuits! My simple mind cannot comprehend the magnitude of it!
The past year and a half, we have had our fair share of struggles in life; however, God really blessed us this Christmastime. Due to giving us the wisdom to lower expectations of ourselves, our little church deciding not to have an actual Christmas program this year, my new job that allows me to work from home some days, and changing my husband's PTO to "use it or lose it", we had, I would say, the most relaxing, rejuvenating holiday season we have ever had in our 17 years of marriage. It really was wonderful, and I praise God for it! It was truly amazing!
Then on to the new year! Already we have seen answered prayer in a couple different areas. Most recently in someone that I have been praying diligently for them to find Christ. We're still a ways a way, but to see little baby steps forward is so encouraging! I'm looking forward to what God has in store for 2015. I hope you are too!
Do you have prayer requests for your life in 2015? I'd love to hear about them and pray for them with you. Please feel free to leave them in the comments below. Prayer works, my friends, so I'll leave you with a couple verses to hide in your heart for 2015:
But as for me, my prayer is to You, O Lord, in the acceptable time; O God, in the multitude of your mercy, Hear me in the truth of Your salvation.
Psalm 69:13
Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
Philippians 4:6
