He WILL Provide..
Today I thought I would write about something besides cleaning the house and expressing my thoughts of the wind blowing around the house, and how I thought that this afternoon for sure that we were going to have a full force blizzard, and then it was beautiful and sunny out ten minutes later...
nah I decided to tell you a story..I'm not too sure about what yet..but the Lord will lay something on my heart. I have been very happy, most of the time, since Jordan and me have been apart. God has been constantly right by my side, and He has been using me in more ways than I'll ever know. Even through this website, that my lovely friend Bekah helped me set up. I believe there are at least a few people touched by this, and I pray that the Lord will continue to use this as a tool, to touch your life too, if He hasn't touched it yet.
Have you ever realized how powerful music is? I have, over this past month, just come to realize that what you listen to really shows up in your daily life. Since the beginning of the month when I realized that God needed to be a full time person in my life, I had to give things up. And for me radio music was one of them. It hit me one day, that my walk with the Lord was not going to improve if I listened to music that was Not glorifying to Him.It made a bigger difference than I thought. I listened to the musci which glorified Him, and it becomes so normal to praise the Lord, and thank him for the things he has given me, and for providing for my every need. My attitude towards people is also much different, and I have alot more patience when I am walking with Him instead of away from Him.
I know that the Lord is going to provide for everything that I am going to need before I go to Florida, I know that my bills will be paid by the time I leave. I know that when I get to Florida, there is always going to be something for me to do there, I know that the Lord is going to make the next 43 days seem like a snap of a finger, and boom the next thing I know my handsome husband will be standing right infront of me, I know that God is taking care of Jordan every single day that he is in Bootcamp, and I know that when this time becomes a memory for the both of us, that we are going to be so much stronger, knowing that we went through this with the Lord and we came out with Him, at the other end.God always knows what He is doing, even when it simply makes no sense to you. Just think about it, HE goes before your yesterdays, your tommorows and your whole life. He already knows what is going to happen to you tommorow, and if something difficult is presented to you in your life, then you need to follow Him, believing that He brought you to this, and that He is also going to bring you through it....

I agree with you on listening to good music. I can't listen to secular music anymore... it just seems like junk food for my ears and soul. There are TWO awesome Christian radio stations here in Florida so we are able to worship God wherever we are!
I'm glad you're leaning on the Lord through this time apart from Jordan. He had been concerned about you before he left-- that the uncertainty of the months to come would be hard on you. We've been praying for you specifically in that area, that you would find God in a very fresh way during this time "alone" and that He would be your Everything.
Isn't He an amazing and loving God? Why would anyone not fall in love with Him?!
Hi! I think your site looks great. I know Rebecca, and found a link to your site on her blog, and thought I would take a look.
Keep listening to that music because it can always pull your spirits up whenever you need a lift, and get you focused on God. So many times when I am listening to my music, singing along, and worshiping, I am just an awe, and feel God with me. ;o)
Hey Di -
I agree - music is such an easy way to spend time with God and really worship Him. I don't think we realize often enough how what we listen to really affects us.
