Happy Thanksgiving!

I may not understand all the things that go on in my life and why things are the way they are, but I do know this.  I think I make a pretty awesome aunt and I love my niece and nephews more than anything.  We had a Naner day at the park today, and I got some pics of them together.  They are the greatest blessings in my life.  I'll probably never have children of my own, but I'm sure glad God put these kids in my life for me to love.

Sleepless on a Sunday

2:45 AM is probably not the best time for me to be blogging, but I've got some things on my mind and I know I will not sleep until I get them off my mind.  And I'm a little too lazy tonight to get out my journal and write everything down.  Then I just typed and deleted.  There are some things I should not blog about, and the things on my mind tonight are some of them.  Good night.

Answered prayers

Over the last couple of years, I've kept a top 10 prayer list of things I intend to pray for until they're answered.  I have been reminded of a couple of these answered prayers recently.  I think it's wonderful the way God remains faithful to His children even when we tend to stray away.  He may not have answered all my prayers with a yes, but it's great to know that He does hear me when I pray.  That is one thing of which I can be certain.  On another note, I believe that God truly does bless His children when they unite and are faithful in doing His work.  Last year, we started a Wed. Night kids program at our church called KidZone.  We were averaging between like 8 and 15 last year.  This year, on our smallest attendance night, we have had more kids than any night last year.  And I think it's great!  Tonight was the best night yet.  We had 28 kids in all.  And even better yet, a few of these kids have realized their need for a Saviour and have accepted Him as Lord.  My own niece and nephew were baptized a couple of weeks ago, and there are a couple of more (in addition to one who was baptized earlier) who will follow in a couple of weeks.  God is doing great things right now and I am so happy to be a part!
