Where have I been?

Hello, blog. I have missed you.

The past month has been a blur of feeding, crying, and changing diapers. Things are starting to settle down a bit, and I am learning Bree a little more each day. Praise the Lord.

Spiritually, things have been a little dry for me these past two months. I recently went to the bookstore to find something I can do on my own this summer to refresh my relationship with God.

I chose an awesome three-book compilation. It is The Power of the Praying Wife, Parent, and Woman. I have already started the prayer journey, and it has been amazing. I will start posting some of my reflection tomorrow - if Bree allows me to.

I start by reading one chapter in the morning about praying for Brent, and then I pray for him. At lunch, I read a chapter about praying for children, and then I pray for Bree. I have not started the 'woman' section yet. But tonight, I will start that as well. So in the evening I will read a chapter about womanhood, and then pray for myself.

My goal for this summer is to really grow in my prayer life. It is so astronomically important. I have already felt God moving in my life. When something comes to mind, rather than worry about it, I just start praying. So hopefully I continue to develop good prayer habits.

Please hold me accountable to this. You can even let me know if I can pray for you, and I will!
