I need a chill pill...

I have a huge problem. I sometimes like to be God's little helper. Now I'm not talking about helping in a serving and loving others type of way. I'm meaning I like to help convict those close to me. Instead of me trusting that the Lord has got it completely in control, I poke my silly little nose in. I open my mouth way too much when instead I need to keep it shut and let Him work it out. Ya see I'm an impatient person...I want it yesterday! That's why all my sewing seams are crooked. But the Lord works things in His own time...not Christy time. Oh man! Do you know how often I have to remind myself of that??? Why is my brain so goofy?! It's because I don't TRUST like I should. Early on in the year a lot of bloggers talked about their "word" for the year. I didn't think I really had one...I've never had one in the past. But here we are approaching the third month and it hits me. I actually do have one. It's trust. I need to trust that the Lord will and is working all things in His time. 

Too much YUCK!

Disease. Sickness. Hate. Selfishness. Lust. Jealousy. Anger. Bitterness. Violence. Destruction. 

Our world is FULL OF IT people! It wears on a soul. That is why today and each day I am so thankful I have a refuge from it all. Jesus Christ. I hope that you too have found the only true source of peace.

Stinkin' Liars!

I was looking through the photos on the hubster's phone the other day. Seriously I about died looking at some of the cutie pie photos of my babies. But then I came to one and I about died for other reasons. Last Mother's Day ( I was 5months pregnant) we went to go feed the ducks. Hub-a-licious took a photo of me and the boys. OH.MY.GOODNESS I was HUGE! AND I WAS ONLY 5 MONTHS PREGNANT!!! WHAT THE HECK! Then I realized something...they lied to me. Everyone who said how great I looked LIED! And well as for me...I must have had temporary blindness because I actually believed them. Well let's fast forward to now. I'm at peace with it (HA!) and it's only because I have lost 52 POUNDS since then. I still have 45 to go but it's okay because I'm getting there. 2 Final things. I think I would rather people just not say anything then tell me how great I really don't look. Those people know who they are and well...I just hope you repented ;)

Does a Body Good!

Apparently these are delish!
