Baptist2Pentecost

I'm going ahead with an idea that I feel God has lead me to do.  I'll be writing another blog alongside this one about how I've gone from a Southern Baptist girl to a Apostolic Pentecostal woman.  Pray with me saints and bind with me that in whatever fashion or facet I can share this revelation that has been given to me in the past 2 years.  Thanks guys!  =)

Day 2 Down

Well, as I blog Mr. C1 is somewhere in Flordia unloading a truck. I am so grateful for a job that will provide for our family.  We absolutely give God ALL the glory for this because we know that His timing is perfect.  Let me just say that it's DAY 2 and I kinda want to scream.  You've caught me in a weak moment...aaahh....yes...you've figured it out...I"M HUMAN!

I'm  thinking as time goes on and little Cs 3, 4, and 5 get used to me being the bad guy, things will eventually get better.  Routine is the key!  So Lord, PLEASE grant me the strength to keep it up. But I must say that while I was aware that Mr. C1 was a help to me at home I now have a much deeper appreciation for him.

Ephesians 5:33 To sum it up, each one of you is to love his wive as himself; and the wife is to respect her husband.  (Holman Christian Standard)  The word respect in the KJV is to revere. I want to use this time apart to learn how to "revere" my husband.  Revere is an action word.  To me it is more than just respect. 

I pray that God will show me what I need to be working on to make me a better me, a better wife and a better mom. 

Will you pray for that with me??

Here we go!

Well, here we go.  It's a new chapter in the life of The Costner 5.  My husband recently went to school and "graduated" with his CDL's.  While this is a great and wonderful thing for our family financially...it means that he will be gone more than he is home.  I figured what better way to cope with this than to start writing. 
He is leaving for his first trip the next week and I am excited and scared all the the same time.  But!!!  Our God is an awesome God.  I know that He will take care of Joshua and us during this episode of life.  I will have more to talk about soon I'm sure!
