Fireproof

Last night my sisters and I were able to go see Fireproof! It was such an awesome movie. There were times when I wanted to cry, when my heart would stop beating,and parts when you wanted to squeal! It was such a God honoring movie. The people who made it really poured there hearts into it. Some parts were heart wrenching for me and my sisters but Mama said that it was even more so because she and Daddy have been married for twenty seven years. I would really encourage anyone to go see it! It was such a blessing!





God Bless,
Joy.

Psalm 23: 4

"Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,

I will fear no evil;
for Thou art with me;
Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me."

The Valley

As I travel down this road
I hear voices calling out,
"You better stop and turn around before you fall into the valley of the shadow of death"
Then I'm reminded of my God,
Who don't ever be afraid because I'll always be with you.

Chorus 1
So I trudge on,
Through the muck and the mud,
And seems as though, I never will get through,
Then I'm reminded of my God,
Who said "Don't ever be afraid,
'Cause with Me and my Son,
You'll never be alone."

So I keep on,
With temptations and trials all around,
Than a shadow falls over my path,
And I cry out,
"Save me from this darkness."
Than I hear a voice full of hope and love, say,
"Don't ever be afraid for you've gone through the valley of the
shadow of death."

Chorus 2
So I trudge on,
Through the muck and the mud,
And I've finally gotten through,
Then I'm reminded of my God,
Who said "Don't ever be afraid,
'Cause with Me and my Son
You will never be alone!"

Then I see a light,
and God says,
"You've made it through
The valley of the shadow of death.
Welcome Home,
My Child."

Psalm 127:3

3Children are a gift from God;
They are his reward.

I Am Alive

Psalm 139:13-16

13For You formed my inwards parts;

You covered me in my mother's womb.
14I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
Marvelous are Your works,
And that me soul knows very well.
15My frame was not hidden from You,
When I was made in secret,
And skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.
16Yours eyes saw my substance, being yet formed.
And in Your book they were all written,
The days fashioned for me,

When as yet there were none of them.

These are just a few of the wonderful blessings that God has placed in our lives.

May we always cherish our little ones and never forget that they are a gift and blessing from above!

May We Always Remember...

I don't know where or when this picture was taken but I do know that this picture was taken during a moment of silence. The leaders of this group were told that they were NOT allowed to pray aloud, but that didn't them from.





Please keep all our Soldiers, Sailors, Marines, Guards, and Pilots in your prayers.


P.S. Sorry about the two videos. They are the same. I don't know how two of them got on there. Hope you like it! :)

1 Timothy 4:12-16

12 Don't let anyone think little of you because you are young.
Be their ideal;
let them follow the way you teach and live;
be a pattern for them in your love, your faith, and your clean thoughts.
13Until I get there, read and explain the Scriptures to the church;
preach God's word.
14Be sure to use the abilities God has given you through his prophets when the elders of the church laid their hands upon your head.
15Put these abilities to work;
throw yourself into tasks so that everyone may notice your improvement and progress.
16Keep a close watch on all you do and think.
Stay true to what is right and God will bless you and use you to help others.

Please pray that I may be an example in my walk with Lord.
That I may be a light for His Kingdom.

I pray that I may "Do Hard Things" for Him.

Picture Perfect

And if you haven't heard, or your not sure, they are engaged! I don't think I could ever let anyone else have my sister other then Darell. As they were here this weekend it was neat having a big brother around. Darell parents and younger brother were all able to come and we had a blast! Friday, Saturday and Sunday night, us girls all stayed up until around 1:00 am! It was so good to be able to talk and laugh like that all together again!
