Prayers Answered!




Hello to All!!
I am so excited to say that after 2 1/2 years of fervent prayer, God has finally answered our prayers and Travis has a day job!!! HOORAY!! It has been a very trying and difficult few years running opposite schedules of each other, but God is faithful.
Matthew 21:22- "And all things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive."
I know that God was listening to us and we kept on believing and now we have received our answer! The Lord is so good to us!

At the WOD meeting, Darlene (a sweet sister in Christ) was speaking about your testimony and how it has such power. One thing she said that has really stuck with me was that the Hebrew word for testimony literally means: "Do it again!" So I am proclaiming the testimony of answered prayers to everyone so that God can..."DO IT AGAIN!" Amazing to think what the power of your words can do. As Proverbs 18:21 puts it: "life and death are in the power of the tongue." Next time you begin to say something just remember that verse and that what you are saying is a part of your testimony. Speak life to produce life and produce a testimony that you will be excited to say: "Do it Again God, just do it again!" I am proclaiming today and everday that we serve an Awesome, Mighty and Faithful God! He is the same yesterday, today and forever and because he is, he is still faithful to hear us when we call and answers our prayers!

I know that I am looking forward to spending more time with Travis, since he will now only be working M-F and he now gets to be home in the evenings and on weekends. But more importantly I am excited that our precious girls will be able to spend more time with their Daddy. They are definitely Daddy's Girls and every little girl needs her daddy there for her!While Travis has to get accustomed to a day schedule again, we as a family will love being able to just be together more!

May you have a blessed day and remember God is listening.....what do you need to go to him in prayer about today?

Be Blessed!
Jessica
