I'm baaaacccckkkk

Hello world. I'm back. Sorry it's been so long, but my kids have been sick, I have been sick, Husband has been sick, and it's been a busy few weeks!! I'm still swamped, but thought I would try to write something all the same. If you see my weekly blog on my web site.... www.angelsarewithyou.ca, you will see that I had a story to tell. Please check out my web site, as I do update that one weekly.

Any how, here's my story....

As most people, life tends to through me lemon's lately. Our families have had 8 deaths, since March, my husband is on disability, and now they are checking him for Lupus...another wonderful disease, money is tight, and then this past week, my two vehicles have broken down. Yes, both. My husband's van wouldn't start, and my van lost the power to the windshield washer blades. So, I must say, things have not been fairing well the last little while. I had a complete break down one day, as I just felt as though I couldn't take any more!! Then after I calmed down, I decided to put it out of my head. I thought to myself, I will sit still, I will take a few deep breaths, and I will just focus on the good in my life. Because no matter how much bad I have, I still have more good. So I did. I forgot about the vans, but the other things out of my head, and let most of it go. For a week, we made due with one van, and didn't even try to fix it...I mean who had the money any ways? So, I was in a conversation with my dad, and mentioned the van, and he said, you know, try cleaning the cables attached to the battery. I thought sure, why not. It probably won't work, but lets try anyways. So, Chad cleaned them, scrubbed them, and volia, the van started. It works even better then before. All it cost....15 mins of time. So, now with the windshield washed motor. My brother said, it could be a fuse, and you can fix that yourself. Again, thought well, why not. Well, we changed the fuses, some relays, and BOOM they work!! Now, I know this is hardly turning water into wine, or walking on water, but I didn't worry, (like I always do) I didn't stress out, I took a step back, and trusted God for once. And, some how, some way, a solution appered. It saved me about 600 dollars I figure. That kind of money goes a long way for us right now.

Moral of this story, just follow the advice you get from friends and family, it may work, it may not, but some times God will work through them all the same.

Have a nice weekend, and please feel free to add your own story here of how God many have worked for you, even if it seems small. It's the small things that can be the most encouraging.
