Ephesians 2:6-9, Karlyn

S - For he raised us from the dead along with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ Jesus.  So God can point to us in all future ages as examples of incredible wealth of his grace and kindness towards us, as shown in all he has done for us who are united with Christ Jesus.  God saved you by his grace when you believed.  And you can't take credit for this it is a gift from God .  Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it.

O - Affirmation of what my purpose is...being an example in all I do of God's grace and kindness and I can't be prideful in any of it because it was a gift nothing I earned.

A - I need this to reflect in my actions.  I've been very selfish again with my time and thoughts and I need to focus on what I can do every day to let others see his grace and kindness

P - Lord help me not to focus on me all the time and really see those who need to be shown oyur grace and kindness!

2 more weeks and then Thea is here!  I'm very large, peeing every 5 minutes, and trying to enjoy every minute with the boys before she gets here.  These are some things we are praying for...
-no complications during surgery
-epidural (sp) works perfectly
-she breast feeds easily and I have enough milk but not too much!
-she is healthy and thriving
-Knox handles all the change well
-my recovery goes smooth and quickly
-she SLEEPS great during the NIGHT!
-Ryan isn't stressing out about farm stuff and can let go and allow Jonathan and Walter to take up some slack.

Love y'all!

Cindy, Amber, and Jenifer I hope y'all are doing great!
