I feel so blessed right now, it's rediculous.

Man, I wish that I could really relay to you all how sinking blessed I feel to be alive and here right now. This week, as with many other, I feel like God has taken me aside and reminded me of who HE, and the purposes HE has for life... and more specifically my life. HE has created us to be alive, to live and breathe and KNOW Him. That our life and breath would magnify HIS glory. WOW. What an awesome opportunity.

The fact that HE loves us as kids, and holds all in His hand is sometimes (well often really), hard to grasp for me. But so many times in this vogue of life the God of the universe has taken the time to confirm His word in my life... and pour out good gifts. I'm amazed.

At times I feel like a chicken with my head cut off, trying desperately to find my way around this world, with no means of my own to do so. It is so apparent HE is doing it... The PROVIDER: providing joy, energy, love, leaders, friends, family, money, hope, peace... and so much more that one needs just to get through the day and live a life of purpose.

Some of these joys today in my life include this little fatty. He brings SO much joy to me every time I see Him. And the best part is that it is becoming ritual for his mom to strip him naked when in my presence so I can take a picture of him! She loves the fact that he's a chunker, and wants pictures to remind her of it. Other joys include continued vision that the Lord has been giving me for the next step, and even for today. So exciting. Also, I am also ecstatic that I can be home for my sister's wedding in May... oh ya, and the fact that I have the pleasure of spending the weekend at the beach with half of the people that make up MMC here. It will be great to spend time with them all outiside of city and clinic life!... and well... there is just so much more to be thankful for. I don't know where to stop... for I could go on and on!

I really look forward to seeing many of you in just two short months... and hearing how the Lord is pouring out His truth in your lives... and being able to share all the more with you. What a blessing to have such a network of family and friends.
God is great, sing His praise, all the earth, all the heavens...

ps... this is Abraham, from previous posts, at eight weeks! HUGE KID=D. I Love it! Got to see him @ Isle Verde yesturday. So good.
