Getting my hopes UP.

So after letting this all marinate last night, I began to feel thoughts of doubt creeping in, and I immediately banished them. Sure, things couldn't happen-but why not think that they will? This is something that Joel Osteen's daily readings and his book have taught me. I think before, I was in such a self doubting mode, but why? I know everyone does it and that it's easy, because if you already set yourself up to fail and do it's not as big of a blow-but I don't feel that God is willing to work in those lives as much. If I expect great things will happen, I feel eventually God will bless.

I thought I'd share this video/song with you..."My Savior, My God" by Aaron Shust. Howard has all his songs on the computer and he's constantly played on the Christian radio stations-you'll recognize this one.


My favorite lines are the first few sang...
"I am not skilled to understand
What God has willed, what God has planned
I only know at His right hand
Stands One who is my Savior"

Also, I am rather excited that today is Friday, meaning, HELLO, it's the weekend! Tomorrow we are going up to Howard's parents to help with the final move-in to the preschool and Howard has to help Doug with a special project that I can't mention in case Myranda is reading :) Sunday (the day I'm MOST excited for) we are going to our church, which we love, and then to the Arts Festival in downtown Carmel, in the Arts & Design District. I'm definitely predicting lunch at Bub's Burgers and a walk on the Monon to follow. YAY! I can't wait!
