It's been really hard for me to keep up with my blog. When I was pregnant i couldn't even look at the computer without getting nauseous and now that Greyson is here I never have time lol. My thought today and this week is that life is so fast. I feel like It was just yesterday that I was 17 and being dropped off at Southeastern ready to start my life and now I'm 25 years old and married with two boys. I can't believe that 8 years of my life has passed. That is almost a whole decade and I can't even remember half of it lol. It really challenges me to make the next eight years of my life count. I had some great moments these past eight years like getting married and having my boys but I didn't really do much for Jesus and that makes me sad. When I was 17 I had these huge dreams of starting a missions organization and reaching America and the rest of the world for Christ. I had an action plan and I didn't follow it. Now that Im a mom Im not quite sure how to execute my dream of missions with being a mother. Being a mother is the most important thing in the world to me but I also know that I have a passion and a desire to bring Christ to the nations... So in the next season I will be spending some serious time in prayer asking the Lord to show me what I can do for Him and how I can incorporate my desire to do ministry with my responsibility of motherhood... Join me in prayer sweet friends =)

Some may say that your children are your ministry and that, through them, you may very well fulfill your dreams of bringing Christ to many nations. And, then again, you may only bring Christ to your children and their children and their children and theirs.
