Inspiration

2011-03-08T18:00:00.000-08:00

Well, life has been crazy and I have not been keeping up with posting :)
For those of you interested, my husband and I started and all-natural fast food stand in New Holland, PA. More info can be found at www.pureblissfood.blogspot.com or on facebook at Pure Bliss Food.
The new business, and the two others we run, learning the journey of grief, dealing with sickness and food allergies and oh you-name-it has been our life lately. But God, in His faithfulness, has reminded us yet again that He has a plan. May He touch you today, minister to your heart, and remind you of the great plans He has for YOU! Blessings~

Happy Valentine's Day!!

2010-12-19T18:44:00.000-08:00

I am excited for Christmas. This year is different for sure but.... it is still the time we celebrate the Greatest Gift of all! The birth of our Lord & Savior Jesus Christ. And that is reason enough to celebrate. I am so thankful for my healthy, amazing little family and all our wonderful family & friends. This week will hold cookie baking, surprise packages to people, Christmas songs, stocking stuffers, dinner with friends, watching the Sing Off, family gatherings, sitting with my sweet Lilly, and remembering the Reason for this special Season. God, You are good. Give us grace, strength and joy and the courage to worship you and celebrate in the midst of trials and hardships. Thank You for sending Your Son so that we can have a Living Hope!

I pray that you may experience that Living Hope this Christmas and in the year to come! I wanted to share our family Christmas card with all of you. Have a blessed Christmas!

Families- Mine :)

2010-12-05T18:52:00.000-08:00

This is my family. Crazy. Goofy. Funny. Sweet. Dramatic. And sometimes quite a handful but I love them. Lately I have been reminded of just how very blessed I am. My daughter, at 4, already knows how to speak a woman's language directly to my heart. Some of the things she has said and done these last few weeks are priceless and I am beginning to see a true friendship emerge. We've got each other's back, you know? And my son. Although he does not sleep well at night we can never get upset with him because he is just the cutest little guy you ever saw. One little cock-eyed grin. One chubby little finger wrapped around yours. One whispered "luh you!" and I am a goner! My husband has been amazing lately as well. It would not be fair to do a post about my family and not mention how awesome he has been. We are going through some of the toughest, saddest, most draining days of our lives and he remains loving, understanding, supportive. He takes good care of me and really cares about what I am going through. One of the things I love the most about him is that he loves to help and bless people every bit as much as I do. It is part of our calling/ministry for sure and I just adore him for it. A few weeks ago when my other "sis" Anna was visiting from Indiana, she took time out of her incredibly busy schedule to take some fun pics for us. I just LOVE the way they turned out. I had fun dreaming up props and outfits, etc (one of my fav things to do!) and I will cherish the memories for years to come. Lill has inspired me to take more pictures. She is always snapping pics documenting this or that and I love to go to her house and see them scattered around and scrolling across her digital frame. Right now, my house is adorned with these pics- here, there and everywhere. Thank you Anna! You did an amazing job and captured just what I envisioned. I know it was a sacrifice and I am so grateful. Love you!
*side note* If you wish to have me style a shoot for you, please schedule at least one month ahead and mention that you would like me to do so!

Pray for Lilly

2010-11-29T06:34:00.000-08:00

This is my gorgeous "sister". You see, I never had a sister. Always wanted one. I'd watch other sisters interact with each other and wonder what it must be like to have a friend so dear. Then I met Lilly. She has sisters. She knows the joy of sisterly fellowship. But her two sisters live miles away. So.... we adopted each other. We're sisters at heart. She has been my dearest friend, mentor, sister and a huge inspiration in my life. Lilly is always positive. Always caring. Always giving. She sees a need before you even see it and meets it in her sweet selfless way. She's fun! She loves life just to live it! Loves exploring new places and new things. This summer, she started to feel tired, weak and not so well. It quickly spiraled downward till she had very little use of the right side of her body. Just over a week ago she was admitted to Johns Hopkins hospital in Baltimore because of bleeding on the brain. After further tests the doctors unofficially determined that she has brain cancer in the left side of her brain. The official diagnosis is still coming but it looks to be a very aggressive kind with few treatment options. Oh the heartache! Lill has a dear loving husband and three young adult children who love her so. And many, MANY lives who have been touched by her kindness and just ADORE her. (Yes, that's me!) We all are believing God for a miracle in her body! A big one! Our God is not limited to circumstances or bound by symptoms or a diagnosis. We are proclaiming over her what the word of the Lord says ...
Psalm 103:3
Praise the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits--who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases.

Isaiah 53:4-5
Surely he took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows, yet we considered him stricken by God, smitten by him, and afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed.

Psalm 118:17
I will not die but live, and will proclaim what the LORD has done.

I love this one:
III John 2
Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well.
I love it because I KNOW that Lill's soul and spirit are prospering as she is in constant fellowship with her sweet Jesus. She may not be able to voice much verbally to us but I KNOW she is communicating ever so much with our Mighty God.

This summer, when she was just starting to feel bad, I had the privilege of having pics taken with her. A sort of sister shoot :) I collected props and outfits and accessories, we made matching aprons, we shopped together and shopped and shopped some more and then took these darling photos which I cherish. I share them with you today and encourage you to pray with me and join in the fight for Lilly's miracle! AND IF OUR GOD IS FOR US, THEN WHAT CAN STAND AGAINST US?! Thank You, Lord, for the many promises in Your word!

*Please repost on your facebook, blog, etc. Let's get as many people praying as possible!
