Through the Wilderness

I have not posted in about a month, but truthfully it is because I have had my head in my Bible almost constantly, getting encouragement, comfort and love from our awesome God.

Brian is doing great and I am more in love than ever. Caleb is the apple of my eye and my little sweet man in every way. Tessa has developed quite a little attitude, shaking her head no every time I ask for a kiss, but as sweet as pie none the less. Jacob is at my feet all the time (a true mommy's boy), gives lots of hugs, yet has a lovely problem biting his friends at daycare. I keep telling Brian he has a split personality! :)

As for me, if you are reading this, please throw up a prayer for me. I am learning that life is not always smiles and rainbows - even for me, the joyful, spunky Alyssa that you have always known. Daily I am relying on God's strength, power and goodness to get me through. As I look at the direction of our truly corrupt world, I rest in the promise of Jesus' imminent return - he WILL be here soon! Jesus said to his disciples: "In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." AMEN!
