When? What? How? Why?

These are some of the questions we ask God when what he doesn't make sense to us. When? What? How? Why? His thoughts are not out thoughts. He makes every thing work out for good. I am wondering about some things God is doing in my life. Sometimes I think he is crazy. I have to trust him though. Talk to God about everything that is on your mind. He knows best, he does. Never say no to God. Please! I know I have instead of asking questions and trusting. Why would God let this happen? Why would he want me to do this? Trust God. In whatever situation you are in. It's okay to ask these questions. A lot of people asked questions in the bible. What God did didn't always make sense to them. Here is one of my questions. Why does Ana have to scream so much? Even the little things like that. God is always ready to listen. He wants to hear what you have to say. Even though he already knows what it is, he wants YOU to tell him. Ask away, he says. So ask and trust and believe.

Hope

Jesus is our hope. He is our only hope. Who else can we put our trust in? Who else can we tell all our fears to? Who died on the cross for our sins? Who else would do that?No one. No one but our Jesus.
"Find rest O, my soul, in God alone; my hope comes from him."
Psalm 62:5
Hope is all we have. Hope is all we need. Jesus is our hope. I love this hope of mine. I can't wait to learn more about him and see what he has in store for my life. Can't wait! Jesus, you are my hope. I will trust in you, and you alone. We can't put our hope in money or things. Not animals or people. Only Jesus, only Jesus. Who or what is your hope?If you don't answer Jesus you don't have any hope, unless you go to him. Nothing can replace him. He is our only hope. Go in a bible and look in the concordance. How many verses are listed under hope? A lot. Your hope is Jesus. He is your only hope. If a tornado came through your house. It would take away every thing that is important to you. Maybe a family member, but you still have Jesus. No one can defeat him. No one, nothing, nada, zero, nothing. Jesus is your hope, he is your only hope. Are you convinced yet? If not, I am so sorry for you. I will pray for the people in the world that do not know about the real hope. Think back on what I have said. After reading this you might try to forget. Telling your self that some weird person wrote this and it doesn't matter. But you can not forget this. Jesus s hope, your hope, every one's hope. Jesus is our only hope. Nothing can take his place. I'll say it again, Jesus is the only hope. For past, present, and future, forever. Jesus is hope, he is our only hope.

A Blessing

The other day some of our friends and Claire found a nest in our bush. 4 blue and dotted with brown eggs lay softly in the nest. Our neighbor has some eggs in her bird house. They are a pale blue. We got to see the Mamma of both. The one that is in our bush was hatching and we got a video of it. You may not be able to see it very good but this is what we got...

A Busy Three Days Ahead

Yep, you herd right. We have some pretty busy days coming up. My dance recital. We have to travel three days in a row. The dress rehersals are crazy. So I am asking you to pray for our portection and my Mom. If you are a Mom with three kids you probably know what I mean. She just needs supernatral streagth!

How my Blog got it's Name...

When you read the title of this post you might of thought, wow, what a silly thing to write about, but really, how my blog got it's name is a pretty amazing story. I think you are going to like it...

The first thing that happened is I wanted to start a blog. My Mom had started one and I thought, cool, it might be fun to start a blog. So I asked her. She said yes. My Mom helped me. Setting up the parts I didn't know how to. She said: the name is very important. So I thought, and thought, and thought. I could think of lots different names, but none of them were quite right. I went and asked my Dad. I am not a very patient girl and I wanted to get started on the other stuff. God is helping me with my patients now, but I am still impatient some times. He said: why don't you get the bible out and we can see if we can find any thing in there. I rolled my eyes thinking my Dad is the most God freak ever, but now we are God freaks together! We looked for a while, flipping through the pages and suddenly we both think water. Waterfall, no not right. River, still doesn't fit. Streams, needs something else. Think think, think think. Then suddenly we figure out Streams of Abundance. Perfect! We are so blessed so God fills our life with streams of abundance. So that is how my blog got his name. Pretty crazy. Hu? It is amazing how God works in the littlest things. Isn't it? I hope you are enjoying and learning at my blog: Streams of Abundance. And I hope you are starting to enjoy the journey to and of my mission trips on my other blog: Kate and the orphans! I hope you will continue reading my blogs!
