Scared

Have you ever gotten that scared feeling in the pit of your stomach? I mean that really scared sinking feeling that makes you feel scared in a way that you've never felt before. That use to be a regular feeling for me. I can remember when I was little and my whole world revolved around being scared (as much a child's can understand fear). I use to be to scared to go to sleep some nights.

That's how my life use to be... in one word: scared.

Now my life is described by a new word: peace.

And I'm so glad it is! Jesus has secured my future and not allowed that feeling of fear in my life anymore. Now, I still have moments when I take my eyes off of Jesus and feel scared about trivial things, but that pit in my stomach fear is no more!

There is nothing that I fear anymore. The enemy has no hold over me. My future is secure!! What else matters?

"I have said these things to you, that in my you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world." John 16:33

So we've been sick....

It seems that sickness has made its way through our house. And did I mention that I HATE being sick or anyone being sick for that matter.

2 weeks ago my little one had it. Last week 2 sets of neighbors had it and this week me and my hubby have it.

Hopefully we be back to full swing by the beginning of next week. We've got a full week ahead of us :)

Dinner this week

We are still cleaning out the pantry this week :)

Monday - Tacos
Tuesday - Eggs and Toast
Wednesday - Mac and Cheese
Thursday - Sausage, Rice, Cream of Mushrooms
Friday - Waffles and Bacon
Saturday - Chicken Sandwiches

My little one tends to be a little picky and I'm ok with her eating something different as long as it is healthy. What we tend to do is to put whatever we are having on her plate (so she gets exposed to it more) and in addition give her something that she likes that is healthy, usually some types of beans and sweet potatoes.

For more menus this week check out OrgJunkie.

If your visiting me from OrgJunkie and are good with grammar check out the previous post on my site... I could use some help with grammar :)

Yucky sickness!

After movie night last night my little one came down with a fever. 102.6 This morning it was even higher.

A trip to the doctor to rule out various infections only to find out she has a virus and it has to run its course. This means no church for us tomorrow :( I really enjoy our church and miss it when we can't make it.

Thank goodness I can watch a service on television. Our pastor has a TV ministry called Transforming Truth. It comes on Tuesday evenings and Sunday mornings. You can also listen to a podcast here. You should hop over and take a listen! Go! It's good stuff!
