Welcome again to the 3rd installment of "Typical Blog Tuesday". A segment where I make of fun of most of the blogs out there who brag about their lives and how precious and perfect their kids are. And of course, it wouldn't be complete without a heaping helping of thick, creamy, sarcasm. ENJOY!
Ahhhh, a day off. FINALLY!! It will be so nice just to "not go to work" for a day. Lately Marisa and I have been working over 45 hours a week. It's just been so hectic for me too, since that merger with the other company. So many new changes to do, and along with all the changes, I guess 29% of the work force will be laid off. I just hope I'm not one of them. I mean I have 3 credit cards maxed out, 2 car payments, a boat loan, a RV payment, the mortgage .... I don't know how I would survive if I didn't get my next paycheck. I just hope the good Lord is watching over me when these next round of lay offs come up so I'll be skipped.
Anyway, after getting our darling children up and lounging around the house for awhile, we all got ready and went to church. Pastor Peter Pedophile has such a good sermon today on God's grace. We all are so fortunate to have God on our side, He is watching over all of us, at all times. It's just amazing how much love He can have for us. Just last week I prayed for Jesus to help us through our financial "tough times" we are having, then later that night I was watching the Jesus network and the televangelist had a message that I swear was spoken "just for me". He said that Lord's people were NOT meant to have difficulty with money, because the Lord is the overseer of everything. And He said that if we give him $1000.00 to plant a seed, the Lord would return that gift back to us 10 times over. Well of course I grabbed the Mastercard and called and gave my gift offering and I'm certain that with FAITH IN JESUS, our money problems will be a thing of the past. It may not be tomorrow, or next week, or next year, but I know the Lord will answer our prayers. Sometimes we can not see the big picture on how God works. We may think one way, but the Lord has a whole different plan for us. I may never see the return on my money like I was told, but that's OK, because the Lord works in mysterious ways. We can't even imagine how He does things, it's not even comprehensible.
Anyway, they are having a sleepover this weekend at the church for the kids, kind of a "mini retreat" to reassure our kids that we are on this earth to serve the Lord. And I just want them to know that life is so short, and it's so important to spend as much time as we can praising the Master and not clinging on to material things in life. And to love one another and pray everyday for each other. I can't wait to see my precious children grow up to be "warriors" of Christ one day. To spread the good news of the gospel to others so we can all live in peace and harmony one day. Life is such a precious gift, I think we just take it for granted way too much.
Well I better go to bed now and make sure the kids are sleeping. Tomorrow is back to work for me and the kids have to get up early again to be dumped at daycare so we all need a good nights sleep. God Bless.
Todays Bible Verse:
John 3:16 For God so love the world, that He sent His only son; that whoever believith in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.
