Flowers Blooming For Jesus: Surviving the frigid temps!

We are surviving the cold by staying indoors where it is nice and toasty warm! We received 4-5 inches of snow and temps that were literally 16 below zero on Friday! Brrr! the kids were disappointed that they could not go and play in the new snow because of it being so cold. They made do by playing their new nintendo games that they got for christmas and driving me crazy with their loud, messy games of 'War' and making tents out of blankets and sheets. Ahh, to be a kid again! ;o) Thankfully, the temp. is warming up, it was around 25 degrees today! Heat wave!! LOL! We have been snapping pics of Caleb as he discovers new things everyday and some pics of the kids as well.

Danny and I have decided to go with plan B, since plan A is not going anywhere right now as far as our goal of Danny getting a degree, becoming debt free and us going to the mission field. So, Danny is starting on-line classes from HSBC this Tues. and he is trying to get a good full-time job and I may be trying to find part-time work as well. We figure that we will chip away at our debt and get a few of his classes done while we are waiting on God's perfect timing for our place to sell and move us to Florida. Please help us pray that God will direct Danny to a good job...thanks!

The last few weeks have been tough and there were some days that we did not know how we were going to make it..but God never fails! And He has provided for us in AMAZING ways and we give Him all the praise and glory! God is teaching us to FULLY rely on HIM for our needs, and what a journey of Faith it has been! How wonderful to be a child of God! I use Oswald Chamber's book `My Utmost for His Highest` and the other day I read that when we are children of God that it is un-necessary and dis-respectful to worry about our needs! Wow! He cares for the little, tiny sparrow, how much MORE does He care for us?!! What an AWESOME promise to rely on!

Blessings to You all!
