And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:19 NKJV)

I love when God reminds me of His promises in scripture. God has promised to take care of us as we have started this new chapter in Florida.  Sometimes I get distracted in the moment we are facing & it is so comforting to read this. 

It's also comforting to know that it's for His glory & not ours.  It's also comforting knowing that these times will become a testimony for Him & we can help another person during their time of need/encouragement.

Thank You Lord for being our provider.  You have promised us certain things and I know it will come to pass one day. I praise Your name alone & I honor what You are doing in our lives.  It's a blessing.

Tale of Three Trees

On Palm Sunday, our kids did their first musical, A Tale of Three Trees.  They did an amazing job too!  They learned all the songs, motions, & speaking parts in about 4 weeks!  I have never seen kids so genuinely excited for a musical.  I grew up in doing kids' musicals at my church and I also helped with some too and I have never this much excitement as these kids.  They loved it so much that they wanted to start working on the next one!  There are not many kids at our church at the moment but these kids can sing too!  When I was in the musicals, we always had the back up voices but these kids knew their words and sang.  It was so refreshing and so much fun watching them.  Sean and I helped with the lighting and I got stuck doing the spotlight...  I have no experience with that either.  haha.  But I did enjoy it and it was more fun that I got to do it for the kids at the church.  These kids are absolutely amazing and full of so much joy.  I think I am just as excited for the next one as they are!!  Here are some pictures from the play.

Me practicing with the spotlight.
All the kids performing.



After the play, Pastor Tommie spoke a little bit.  At the end he started to encourage everyone (including the kids) to worship together.  The best part is seeing the kids participate in worship.  They may not understand everything we talk about yet but they do know how to be respectful to their elders and engage in worship.  The Holy Spirit is known to our children.  I absolutely love them.

Esther Mae Robinson

This post is dedicated to my amazing Grandmother Esther.  She died on Wednesday, April 2, 2014.  She was 88 years old & an incredible woman. She was smart & a hero of mine. I'm so thankful that I was able to call her mine & I cannot wait to see her in Heaven one day.  Love you Grandmother Esther!

The photo above is of us last year. We had lunch & then got some ice cream. 

Celebrating her 88th birthday back in August.

We went to visit her in hospital a few days before she passed. She still had her spunk up until she passed. 


This photo is of my grandmother & her best friend. We call her Tootsie. They have been friends for nearly 50-60 years. They have traveled the world together & been there for each other during their good & bad times.  I pray this will be me & my best friends, years from now. 

Love her dearly.
