Finding encouragement...

As I sit here and read the blogs of others, I am encouraged by their lives, and their heart for the Lord, even in the midst of horrible situations - like cancer, death, etc.  It makes me wonder if my response would be the same.  Could I still give God the glory amidst the pain and suffering?  I hope so.  

That is one of the reasons I have chosen to start this blog.  Not because I think I have anything of importance to say, and it definitely has nothing to do with being an eloquent writer, which I clearly am not.   I am writing in hopes that I can share my precious family with others, and in doing so maybe bring a little joy and encouragement to someone else.  I pray that my words will reflect Jesus, and that through this blog and our stories, I will learn to always have an attitude of thanksgiving and praise for all the Lord has given me.
