Last week we were informed of something that pretty well rocked our world. I'm afraid I can't go into any details. I could really use some prayer, though. I'm needing to not allow fear to take over. I'm needing to remember God is God no matter what circumstances take place in our lives. I'm also needing to guard my heart from anger, bitterness, and hate. I'm needing wisdom as to where to go from here.
I was at church on Sunday and broke down. I'm able to keep very busy in the day-to-day and not deal with things, but on Sunday... well that's a different story. Sunday is our Sabbath, it is a day where we intentionally slow down to honor, reference, obey and fellowship with God. As I sat in church and sang, all that has happened came rushing in like a flood and I was faced with all the above mentioned struggles. As I sat in my Father's lap, lifting up praise to Him out of obedience alone (void of positive emotion), I wrestled and chose to try to surrender.
Please pray w/ and for me that this "thing which Satan intended for evil, God would use for good."

About Me
- Cari
- I'm a stay at home, homeschooling mom to four beautiful children and wife to my dream man who I am completely in love with. I love God and am in the process of learning rather recently (I'm sorry to say) that I can do no good thing apart from Him.

We will be praying for you, Cari. Whatever it is... know that YOU are loved abundantly... more than you could ever know. You're loved from the tippy top of Washington to the Southern-most of California... and much much further than that. We think about you guys often. XOXO
I'll be praying Cari! May you have that 'peace that passes understanding'. Love to you and your family.

You and your family always have my prayers, just currently they might take a little longer to travel back home : ) Thank you for asking us to share this burden with you. Like you have always told me "one day at a time". May you feel peace in your heart this week. Love you all to pieces.
