Happy Sunday

       This weekend was really great my husband and I talked out our problems, things are really great between us. My father in law is in town from New York for 10 days. Yesterday we went out to eat to dick's last resort it's place where the waiteresses and waiters are "rude" its was actually really fun.

         Today church was really great the service was about what it really meant to be a christian. My husband and I got a few new books. I got The power of a Praying Wife my friend sarah ( I wrote about her a few entries ago) recommended it to me a long time ago,I finally got it. I will be sharing some prayers out of the book in my Faith Section from time to time. Daniel and I also signed up for growth groups as a couple for young marriages. I am excited to do a bible study with my husband about marriage we have been wanting to do one for a very long time. My entry for last week's Power of a Positive wife is finally up.
      I wanted to share a few things that my pastor said in the service today that really stuck with me.

JUST FOOD FOR THOUGHT :)
  • Jesus died on the cross to change us not bless us.
  • Before you meet Jesus you do what you want after you meet Jesus you do what he wants. thats being a christian
  • Before you meet Jesus you do what you want and after you meet Jesus you continue to do what you want but you expect blessings. thats not being a christian
  • Following Jesus starts with seeing Jesus
  • Real salvation means real changes some of those changes are these
  1. Righting past wrongs 
  2. New goals and values 
  3. It starts at home ( its one thing being a christian outside the home,make sure your being one in the home. Are you being the father/mother husband/wife God intended you to be?)
  • If you want to know if your being the christian god wants you to be ask your husband(or wife)
  • respet and honor your husband 
  • The way jesus dealt with people then is how he deals with people now
  • The way jesus dealt with people then is how WE should deal with  people now
  • Put the needs and interest of others above our own
  • Seek the sinner, don't just put up with them

    Negativity

    So, usually my blogs are happy and are about how wonderful life is. Well today its not like that this pass week there has been alot of negativity going on around me. Military wives fighting and gossiping, my husband and I not getting along and some of my "friends" talking about me. Through all of that I manage to stay happy and excited about my days and myself thank you Lord for keeping my positive. I just learned that I can't trust anyone and I can't try to hard to keep friendships alive. I am not bitter with anything that has happened to me this pass weekend that just opens my eyes to how much god has changed my heart.  I've manage to keep my mood extremely happy which is awesome.Other then that school has been amazing ballet has me sore! tap is fun as always and intro to teaching it still hard and demanding but I am up for the challange. I didn't have a chance to put my power of a positive wife entry in yet I've been so busy but I will be doing that very soon!
