I’m just an ordinary girl trying to accomplish extraordinary things. Like being the perfect wife. Or Super mom. Or the positive influence that my friends or members of my family need. My biggest insecurity is that I will fail as a mother. I’m on husband #2 so I’ve already been thru the “failure as a wife” stage. And when my “non-Christian” friends call me up and ask me to pray for them I know I’m getting the second one across. But I am responsible for making sure that my children grow up to be successful, responsible, disciplined, CHRISTIAN adults. And that is a scary thought since one of their parents have never taken responsibility for anything and didn’t know that discipline was a word.
Someday my husband and I are going to be missionaries. My family is not always supportive of our dream and most people around us give that look when we talk about it but we really try not to let it discourage us. There was a line in a Beth Moore bible study that I keep in my head that says “If we are convinced that God has willed the action, let’s go the extra faith mile and believe that God will handle the consequences.” So Im working on that one.
I guess that’s me in a nutshell. I guess most would say I’m not that exciting. But I have a story to tell. And when we are in another country learning another language & culture and doing what God has called us to do~ I’m gonna want to look back at all the things I had to go thru to get there. And I have a feeling there are going to be some pretty big things that we will experience on the way.
Oh yeah~ and Im a list-aholic. If there are two of anything it's going on a list!
