Praise Report

Praise The LORD!!!!!!!! Sorry just had to get that out. This is My Mamaw just hours after having  Balloon surgery on her heart (valve). Im not to sharp on my medical terms but anyway My family and I would like to thank everyone for the prayers As you can see they have her up and walking And are talking about possibly letting her go home tomorrow. Please continue to pray since its a 6 hour drive home it will be rough on her but I know she will be in better spirits once she gets home. She wrote me a letter one day last week telling me that if the unexpected happened not to worry because She would be in Heaven. As I sat and read that letter and of course cried like a baby I thought of how much I personally and my family have worried over the past few months as we waited to hear when the Doctor would schedule the surgery, And although after reading the letter I still worried I did have some peace. My heart goes out to families who dont have that peace. See thats why Im over 2400 miles away from my family because my husband and I desperately want to help others have that peace. Peace that only comes from knowing Jesus Christ as your personal Savior. I am so thankful things went well today but im even more thankful that If they hadnt My Mamaw would be standing with Jesus right now.

This is a beautiful song It gave me chills Its called "If He Calls you" Please listen to it.

Houston We have a drummer :)

  Well the last few months all Jeremy can talk about is I wish we had drums It would be great to have drums lol. Of course We have been praying for The music ministry at Canyon Baptist Church to grow not just for drums. So last Sunday Jeremy felt led to make a announcement. He told the church that We know there is talent here at Canyon Baptist Church and We are praying and wanting a worship team (since we have been here its just been Me and Jeremy) We learn more and grow more with a team and We have been praying about this for along time. Jeremy told everyone to pray and do what God would have them to do. Well We now have two ladies interested in singing, and Joy working on learning how to play chords on the piano. Last but certainly not least We had drums for the first time Sunday night. Yes you heard me right!!! DRUMS God gave us drums (and of course a drummer hehe) I wont give names but I will say a new family has recently moved into our community and the boy just happens to have a passion for playing drums. We are so thankful!!! Who Says God doesn't answer prayers!!!


Praise God, from Whom all blessings flow;
Praise Him, all creatures here below;
Praise Him above, ye heavenly host;
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

A good meaningful Name

   Well I have always said something thats very important especially when your working in ministry is consistancy. Of course im the worlds worst! When I first decided I wanted to start a blog It was all for fun. Partly because my mom doesnt have a facebook and its a way for her to get to read and keep up with our ministry (not like I dont tell her every last detail on the phone but anyway) So I didnt put much thought at all into the name. I actually have even changed it a couple times throughout my blogging days. But over the last few months I have felt lead to blog for Gods purpose and His Glory. I wanna tell our story and my hope and prayer is that my story will touch someone along the way. So one thing I decided I had to do was keep it simple No more over the top backgrounds and layouts I Even had some music on it at one time. You will notice its gone now. Then I knew my last thing was to be consistant I needed a good meaningful name to come and never leave again no more changing. Wow thats hard I thought and thought and got no where and  finally just tonight I said God please show me what name you want me to pick for my blog. Gods timing is funny sometimes!! I had just laid back in a hot bubble bath When I literally said out loud His Purpose, His Glory. And there we have it. I want to live my life for His purpose and His glory and I want my blog to be a light to a lost and dying world. Somedays I feel silly for thinking I would ever reach anyone this way, but if God says to write I write and who can argue with the King of Kings. I certainly cannot and will not!  So anyway Just wanted to let everyone know even though I started blogging back in august I am still very much a work in progress but at least I have a good meaningful name now.

Hopping off my pedastle

     Were Back!!!! Getting to go home and see family was awesome, and We are so thankful that We got to. We are also very happy because going home truly showed us that We are exactly where we need to be (in Montana). I love the work We do and it is rewarding although most of the time it feels like it takes way more than it gives. If just one person is saved by us coming to Montana that makes it all worth it. Some people get so caught up in numbers that they can make themselves crazy over them and all they see is numbers. I must say at times i'm guilty of this too, but God said where two or more are gathered He'll be there too.
  We had the privledge to speak at four churches while we were home. We are so thankful for there willingness to listen to our story and how they can help if they feel led. Although We love what We do and get a since of fullfillment by being the worship leaders at Canyon Baptist Church. It was wonderful to be able to sit back at each church and just praise God while someone else did all the work. haha But really we truly enjoyed getting to have a break and worship God Who is SO worthy of our praise.
   Sunday morning Lee spoke about The virtuous women. It really hit home for me especially when he read the verse about Her being delightful. I dont know about everyone else but my attitude most days is far from delightful. I dont feel that i'm  a terrible person or a awful wife. But I could definitely improve, and thats what I want. I just wanna be better A better worker, a better friend, a better wife, a better daughter, a better christian, and a all around better woman. I wanna strife to have a delightful attitude. As Christians I hope we all have some of these same goals. It wont be easy but as you go throughout your week try to remember to have a delightful attitude. Even when you have a rude customer, or your husband tracks mud through the living room Just smile and say thank you Lord for my job that provides for my family and Thank you Lord that I dont have to be lonely because you have blessed me with a husband.  We sometimes get so caught up in our day to day things that We forget how truly blessed we are. So next time you pray instead of asking God for things First Thank him for all he's already given you. I am very guilty of this as well. One thing I feel like alot of people wanna do is put Jeremy and I up on a pedastle. Yes We followed God without ever being to Montana or knowing how We would buy groceries But this is what God asked us to do and We do not need to be praised for that. We should all do what God ask of us. This has been on my heart lately So I just wanna get it out there. We are not higher up than anyone We are STILL sinners SAVED by grace!!! God deserves ALL the praise.
  I also wanna thank everyone who reads my blogs. I know there sometimes few and far between and other times it seems like theres a new one everyday but As christians We all have a story and We need to share it. So I urge everyone you dont have to be a good speaker or a good writer Just if you feel led to ever say anything or do anything for God Dont let any of these silly obstacles  stand in your way. God will bless you for doing what He ask of you. No matter how big or small it may seem.

No matter How Small

 Where did the month go??!!!?!  As our visit comes to a end We are feeled with many emotions. But the strongest one is the longing to be back in Montana doing God's Work. We cannot wait to get back and hit the ground running. This trip has more than confirmed that we are right where we need to be (in Montana). It has been one crazy month!!!  Getting pulled one direction and then the other the whole time is so tiring but We are so thankful to have so many people who love us and wanna see us. I never thought this visit would consist of sitting at the hospital with Papaw and staying home with Him while Mamaw went to Duke For her consultation. But God knew and that is why He helped me come to the decision to stay with them while I was in TN long before we ever came. Being on the mission field you sometimes miss alot. Just like Mamaw will be having surgery in a few weeks and I will not be here. But I am so thankful for being here this time and doing my part in helping take care of them. You cannot beat yourself up or get down in the dumps about missing thing That you would have normally been right there for Like My Cousin Daniel who will graduate High School in May Because I am gone for a purpose and a very important purpose. I am playing a part in changing lives. And although sometimes I feel like all I play is a small part with the little things I do I realize that every job is important and worthwhile no matter how small.
