Houston We Have A Crib!

Got it off of Craig's List for $60! We have to buy a mattress but I wanted a new mattress anyway.
Just too tired to post pics, but I will soon!! It is beautiful.
We prayed about it because we have a tiny budget. They were asking 80. God blessed us!
Oh and I finally found a cheap place to buy decent Maternity clothes! It is a consignment shop in Murfreesboro. We walked in right as they were closing, but the lady stayed almost an hour helping me. So nice!
We talked and found out that we had a lot in common. Remember her dad in your prayers. He is in the hospital.
Women's prayer service was nice tonight. I got tickled during prayer because Braden kept kicking! I just can't help myself. I laugh every time I feel him. It is just so amazing to me that God would grant me this dream. Problem tonight though, he was on my bladder. (At least it seemed to be that way!LOL!)
Sunday was a great day and I enjoyed lunch with Sis. Campbell. She and Bro. Campbell were such a blessing to us when first came to TN!
I have to say something about Sunday Service. It was like drinking fresh water after being in the sun all day! Refreshing. I had been praying for several months about an answer to a question I had personally. Sunday I just told the Lord that I needed it settled because it was hindering me. I got up and walked to the other side of the auditorium to pray for others and this lady grabs both my arms and proceeds to tell me the answer to my question. She had no idea what I had been praying and still doesn't, but for several minutes she plainly told me what I had asked God to show me. Cool! HUH?
God cares about all things in our life and He wants us to be happy. Sometimes I think we forget that! One day when I finish my book I'll tell what I so desired to know, but for now I will ponder it in my heart.
What was even more amazing is that the Devil reared his ugly head today and because I had my answer, I just laughed. God has it all sealed up and satan can't touch what God has annointed and appointed.
