So...

I'm trying to think of something smart to say other than "I'm new to this," but I am, so I'm slowly figuring out how all of this works.

I needed a place to express myself and write daily that's more like a journal. I'm excited! :) I do need help with figuring out how to add pictures(to the top) and "jennyize" (Webster's definition: make like me) things on here, so if you know how and don't mind enlightening me I'd appreciate it.

My thoughts are everywhere today, yet I'm focused. Does that make sense? I've been reading (as I know so many thousands have) Nathan's blog. What an inspiring story. It is such a true example of some of the strongest faith in God I've ever seen. God has been so good and continues to answer the many prayers offered for Tricia and Gwyneth and I continue to be amazed. I've always felt that I had a very strong faith, but these people, they put my faith to shame. It's most definitely not a competition whatsoever, I just strongly believe that God has placed this story in my life to cause me to trust in Him even more and be more grateful for the blessings He's given me. I am a big prayer person. I pray all the time, for everything. I pray when my puppy is sick, I pray when something small is bothering me, I pray when I hear police, ambulance, or fire sirens. I pray all the time. I believe in prayer. It's speaking with God and what could be greater than laying my burdens at the feet of, or sharing my gratitude with, (whatever it is at the time), my Heavenly Father? There is nothing greater. God is wonderful, merciful, and gracious and I am proud to be His child. I am so thankful that He sent His one and only son to die and pay the price of not only my sins, but the sins of every person who lives or ever will live, if they only accept Him. Amazing love.

If you haven't already, you should definitely check out Nathan's blog: www.cfhusband.blogspot.com and please keep him, his wife Tricia, and their new baby Gwyneth in your prayers.
