Good work # 1 : Being a wife a nobel character.

Proverbs 12:4

A wife of noble character is her husband's crown, but a disgraceful wife is like decay in his bones.

Fruit?

Galatians 5:22-23

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,23 gentleness and self control.

I try so hard but patience, peace, gentleness, and self control I think are the ones that i struggle with the most. 
I can only ask for the LORD to send me his Holy Spirit everyday to help me. It's tough being a full time wife, a full time mom, and a full time warehouse specialist! Anyone who has mastered this and somehow finds time for  them selves too please let me in on the secret!!

Shon is a bright light in my life that helps me to see the true meaning in things. He is always challenging me and loves me no matter how I am acting at the time. I am so blessed to have a husband that loves me so much. 




Good Work # 2: Being a Mom

At 2.5 Jayden is already a man at the Sands house hold. 

Tester of my patience! How do I deal with two of them!! My child is such a blessing to me but WOW he is a lot of work! At the age of 2 this little man can already read and write a little here and there. He is very good with just about all words now so if you say something new prepare to hear it come right back at you. The major challenge here is that he is almost more independent than his Daddy. This is very difficult trying to teach him what is right and wrong because he doesn't care he just wants to do it his way. We have a special time out chair for him. Any advice in this area is much appreciated. When your child starts pointing at you and telling you to get into time out then you know you have a strong willed little leader on your hands. I love it but it is very hard work.

I love serving my family I just wish I had more time and energy to do so. I am always growing and learning in these two areas of my life. 

Day One Of Blogging!

I titled this "Live A Life Worthy" because that it my goal.

Colossians 1:9-14 

9 For this reason since the day we heard about you we have not stopped praying for you and asking God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding. 10 and we pray this in order that you may live a life worthy of the LORD and may please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, 11 being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and joyfully 12 giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of ligth. 13 For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. NIV 

My sister in law is taking a class in school that is about religion and talks about being open minded about all religions and if you are not secure with your own than compare it to others and see how it stands up to them.
I think that is very interesting and for me I know Jesus stands up pretty well in the way he loves no matter what the cost. The ultimate sacrifice!

Thats just to start things off. I will put pictures up later for all to see because I know that is what you are waiting for.
