1st Day of Staying Home

Well today was the first day of being a stay-at-home Mom, still feels kind of weird typing it. I know.......that..........well......I wasn't fully prepared for today. I think I prayed for patience, during this time that I am to be home, and at this time I prayed that I thought oh no....what did you just pray for. Well patience is what the Lord is teaching me. I never knew a 2.5 year old could scream so loud that your ear drums would ring so much!!!!! LOL!!!!! I thought today I might very well lose my mind.

Lord you are good and I know it will only get better and this is only a season and this too shall pass!!!!! Thank you Jesus!!!

I had been praying for the past 5-6 years to be at home. There were times when I did, short periods, and I loved it. But I was also happy to be back at work. I know it's crazy.....LOL!! I have to get into a routine. I am one of those people that needs organization, to do lists, and a routine. Otherwise I am lost, I need direction, and guidance. I was pretty much lost today, trying to find my new stay-at-home mom self. That was hard......I think she was hidding I think she was even fearful to come out, but I had to keep reminding her the Lord is with us.

So, tonight I got smart I made a scheduled (I know the Lord can intervine when he wants to) to- do list for tomorrow. It will help me to stay on track and keep me organzied, otherwise I'll get lost again and that's not good. I don't exactly know what type I am, maybe the "A" type. Where can I get a test for that? Pastor and his wife are always talking about types and I'm curious to find out what I am.

Oh, and I started a 2 day cleanse today. My honey went and got some for us. I drink this juice 4x's a day. He got it at GNC, it's called the complete cleansing kit or something like that. It tastes pretty good, kind of like the V8 juice with veggies and fruits. Well that's all this stuff is anyway.

By the way, The Prism is going well.....starting to get used to writing my stuff down and just learning how to eat right again. I do have to say that I lost 2lbs the first week, I found out from Doctor. Today is the start of my 3rd week on it; so a total of 4 weeks to go. Can not wait to see the results and then maintain those results.

Well I must be going, just wanted to catch up a little on the blog world.

Today my flesh words for the day were " I can't do this, I can't do this"!!!! But the Holy Spirit would say...Yes, you can do all things through Christ Jesus who strengthens you. Phil 4:13 So until next time.

May the Lord bless you, keep you, may He make His face shine upon you and give you peace.

In His Love,
Adrienne

What is the Truth?


What is the truth?
Truth is not a feeling. Truth is not an idea. The truth is found in the Bible.Sincerity and good works do not bridge the gap of sin between God and man. Only the blood of Jesus can cleanse a person (Heb. 9:22; John 14:6). Sincerity and good works are merely the reliance upon what is in the individual to merit favor with God. Sincerity is a form of pride when it is appealed to as a justification for being accepted by God: "But God, look at my heart. See how sincere I was? I deserve to be in heaven."No. If sincerity and good works were good enough to satisfy God, then He wouldn't have given us the Bible to correct our sincerely wrong ideas, and He wouldn't have sent His Son to do what our good works cannot.Truth is what God says is true.The truth is important not because it is simply true. It is important because truth is what defines who and what we believe in.Eternity is a long time to be wrong. Especially about Jesus.

What me and my Family Believe

What We Believe
WE BELIEVE the worship of God should be spiritual! Therefore we remain flexible so the Holy Spirit may direct our worship.
WE BELIEVE the worship of God should be inspirational! Therefore we give a great place to music in our worship.
WE BELIEVE the worship of God should be intelligent! Therefore, in our services, we emphasize Bible teaching so God may instruct us how He would be worshipped.
WE BELIEVE the worship of God should be fruitful! Therefore we look for His love in our lives as the greatest evidence that we are truly worshipping Him.

How To Know God

How to Know God

Realize that you are a sinner. No matter how good a life we try to live, we still fall miserably short of being a good person. That is because we are all sinners. We all fall short of God’s desire for us to be holy. The Bible says, “No one is good—not even one” (Romans 3:10 NLT). This is because we cannot become who we are supposed to be without Jesus Christ.Recognize that Jesus Christ died on the cross for you.The Bible tells us, “But God showed His great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while were still sinners” (Romans 5:8 NLT). This is the Good News, that God loves us so much that He sent His only Son to die in our place when we least deserved it.Repent of your sin.The Bible tells us to “repent and be converted” (Acts 3:19 NKJV). The word repent means to change our direction in life. Instead of running from God, we can run toward Him.Receive Jesus Christ into your life.Becoming a Christian is not merely believing some creed or going to church on Sunday. It is having Christ Himself take residence in your life and heart. Jesus said, “Behold, I stand at the door (of your life) and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in...” (Revelation 3:20 NKJV).

If you would like to have a relationship with Christ, simply pray this prayer and mean it in your heart.

Dear Lord Jesus, I know I am a sinner. I believe you died for my sins. Right now, I turn from my sins and open the door of my heart and life. I confess you as my personal Lord and Savior. Thank you for saving me. Amen.If you just prayed that prayer and meant it, Jesus Christ has now taken residence in your heart! Your decision to follow Christ means God has forgiven you and that you will spend eternity in heaven.

The Bible tells us, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9 NKJV).

Praise the Lord, if you just asked Jesus in your heart I want you to know that the Angels in Heaven are rejoicing for you and so am I. Go to http://www.calvarychapel.com/?show=Churches and click on churches to find the closest church to you and go. Go and tell them that you've just accepted the Lord Jesus Christ into your heart. They will be able to lead you to the next step.

God Bless you Brethren.
In the Mighty Name of Jesus!!! Amen!!!
Your sister in Christ Jesus!!!
