From the beginning...

I am just an ordinary person, with an ordinary life, but I have an extraordinary GOD!!! And because of Him in my life, the blessings flow. That's not to say that there haven't been hardships, but I am happy to say, that despite the low points in my life, that my God has been with me each and every step of the way and has blessed me with a very rich, abundant life.



For many years now, I have kept a prayer journal, and at the end of each prayer, I have always ended with "I love you, Amen." So I thought that would be a great name for my blog, because with each day, with each prayer, I am reminded of how much my love for God can grow if I just turn to Him.



I want this to be a place that I can share about my blessings, my husband Grant, and our two wonderful, sweet little girls, Madison and Audrey. These two little girls were well prayed for and desperately wanted. We are so thankful to be blessed with them. Night and Day couldn't be a better description of their personalities, but we will go into that later....Also, I would like this to be a place to share about my personal experiences that have brought me closer to God.



For now, thanks for the opportunity to share my family with you, and that includes my everything - the Lord Jesus Christ.



Dear Lord,

I am not sure what I am really doing creating this blog or why I am, but I feel like it will be a good place for me to share Your Name. I pray that You will help me to use this in a way pleasing to you. Bless the words that are written, and the people that will read them.

I love You, Amen.
