You Know Me Better

Back when I was sure I would never get pregnant, I had such huge blinders on. I couldn't see to the right or left, front or back. I was so stuck. Stuck in my life and my relationship with the Lord. In talking with friends over the past few days about posting my song, I realized how applicable the words were to the struggle I faced when we had trouble getting pregnant. Really, the words speak to any of life's trials. And I shouldn't be surprised that it also ties in perfectly with the scripture I used to name my blog...

"Consider it pure joy my brothers whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance."

James 1: 2 & 3

The Lord is so smart - no surprise there, but I'm just in awe today of how He orchestrates our lives. Each of us so very unique and special to Him. Different gifting and talents, personalities and dreams. But created for the same purpose: to bring glory & honor to His Name.

I put the cutest picture of the cutest twins in the world at the top of this post as a testimony to God's greatness and love for His children. Even when I didn't know if or when we would get pregnant, His ways were HIGHER than mine and His thoughts were HIGHER than mine....He knew me better than I knew myself--whew! I could never have asked or imagined for twins...now they are 17 months old and feistier than ever! : )

I love you Evelyn Suzanne & Eleanor Marie...and I love you Jesus!!!
