2 DAYS!!!!!!

Well, I'm afraid I have neglected my blog lately. Sorry! I get in this focused zone trying to get everything ready for our trip to Haiti. My mind is realing with all the chores I feel I have to do. You know the reverse nesting of getting things in order before you leave for vacation. Wierd I know! Plus count all the laundry to do just to get packed, along with putting fears to rest in my two youngest about me leaving for a week. Yikes! But, I am excited and that is giving me the energy to keep moving.

My thoughts have been in Haiti so much lately. I can NOT wait to see Jonas again! I can't wait to hold him, kiss him, smell him, just drink him in!!!!! His smile makes my heart melt and I can't wait to see it in person again. ohhhhhhhh.......2 more days!!!!!

Well I wanted to leave you with a thought. My cousin sent me this via email and it really spoke to me. Especially since I am getting ready to go to a third world country where the people do not have much. God bless you all and I will post as soon as I get a chance after coming home!



Ps 68:19 NKJV
Blessed be the Lord, Who daily loads us with benefits, the God of our salvation!

in other words....

When all you can remember is the pain of your past, and the memories of such are still fresh... When old thoughts do not have new, good memories to replace them; it is time to count your blessings. I give you daily benefits and I want you to count them and name them one by one. As you turn your focus onto My daily gifts, blessings, provision and loving kindnesses towards you, then your heart will become lighter and suddenly the future is not as dim. When you replace the negative with My view, you will see that I bring everything together for good in your life. When the complaints turn to gratefulness, you will feel much better, dear one. For I the Lord God love you with everlasting love. You are engraved on the palm of My hand and in My thoughts every day. No good thing will I withhold from them that love Me. I have given you a future and a hope and a double portion of My glory shall surround you for all the pain you have suffered. Dear one, start counting.

Hugs, Kristina
