Hey it's me! Oh I know I'm probably relaxing by the pool right now on the beach.... :) Was not that some great guest post! Seriously check these ladies out :) So I posed the question "What does your faith mean to you?" On twitter and facebook. These are some of the answers I got...  Lisa: Trusting in God 100% of the time Josh: everything I am, with out it I'm nothing. Sharon: Trust, confidence in our Lord! Keeps my fear away! Frances: It's what that takes me through each and every day. It's what gives me the strength to go on and do the impossible when in the natural I feel like all hope is gone. It's my faith in Jesus that gives me the hope and peace needed to survive in this present world and gives me joy in my heart. And my faith in Jesus is what will take me to Heaven when my life here is over...It's who I am at the core of my being. Pat: Trust! So, I ask you bloggers, what does YOUR faith mean to you?...

Today's guest post is from my dearest friend Mel! Melanie and I are best buds! We have been best friends since we were nine years old. Not many are so blessed to have a best friend that are for life. We have been been through everything together! We stood with each other against the world (so we thought) , we have made "Buck of our Lives" videos, we have laughed until we were crying, cried on each other shoulders, been there to cheer each other on, we have seen each other at our worst and been honest enough to tell them so (LOL) ... We were also there standing as witnesses on each of our wedding days.  I love you best bud! ________________________________________________________________________________ What my faith means to me. If you've ever mistakenly left home without your coat during an unexpected cold front, you know the feeling I'm about to describe. You check the weather, you step outside your door, you see the sunshine peeking through the wi...

I've known Frances since I was about 17. We went to church together and I became friends with her daughter. I taught her little boy (who is not so little anymore) in the pre-school Sunday school class. Francis is such a sweet spirit. She was always so kind and giving you a smile. I have such fond memories of her and my mother talking. I remember her and my mother heading up a "Tea of Pure Joy" where we were taught abstinence and what plan God had laid before us. I remember the time that we had a lock in for the girls and was teaching how to cook. She reminds of the women in Proverbs 31. I'm honored to have her share with us. ________________________________________________________________________________ First I want to say how honored I am that Lauren (Aunt Lala) has asked me to write a guest post for her wonderful blog.   Lauren asked that I share about what my faith means to me, and that is always a special topic.   When I think about faith I think abou...

What a time it's been this last few months! Between school, work, and life it seems my life has been a whirlwind!  So guess what? We are going on vacation... actually when you read this I am already on my way.  I thought about what to do this week, and I knew what was on my heart. God has been showing me many things over these last few months... I'm learning and he is molding.  My passion, my drive, my dreams are all founded in my faith.  When it came to being employed I prayed and trusted that God would lead and guide me. When it came to choosing our church, we prayed and trusted that God would guide.  Everything is wrapped in my faith.  Choosing my spouse. Eating right. Trips. Bills. Friends. My work at my job. Our Hope. Marriage. My faith has given me strength. Given me Hope. Given me peace. Given me joy.  In essence...  My faith is my LIFE  Join me this week as I have two great guest blogge...
