Life Lately..

I know I have been missing for about 2 weeks now..

Here's Why:

Jr.High camp-6 days. Enough said.

We put our house on the market.

My husband got bit in the face by our dog & I am freaking out because a trip to the ER, 10 stitches, a house that looks like someone got shot, and talk of infection has all but thrown my anxiety into overdrive.

Our other dog chewed up the carpet stairs in our rental home 2 days later.

Our sprinkler system broke in the home we are trying to sell causing us to hire someone on an emergency basis since we had just planted sod.

Countless weekends of yard work in 117 degrees at said home.

Youth Group, Small Group, Trios, Pool party's, & hang-outs.

Oh & I don't know if I mentioned we have full-time jobs.

In 3 weeks we leave for a missions trip with our high school group.

I know I sound like such a whiner but the ONLY reason I am sharing all this is because:
A. to let you know why I have gone missing &
B. We need some serious prayer. PLEASE.

The enemy is attacking us from all sides & I am asking that you please lift my husband, our family, our youth group and our upcoming trip in prayer. For healing, NO infections, medical bills, etc.
That God would receive glory from this and that others would be able to see God make good out of the bad, like He has SO many times in our lives. I so appreciate your hearts and your prayers for us. Thank you!

As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good, to bring it about that many people should be kept alive, as they are today. Genesis 50:20

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28
