Galations 4:13

Kristen is on her way back from Lawrence, KS and KU's disappointing loss to OU. I'm sure she had a fantastic time with her friends. Devin and I survived the little trial run before her trip to FL later this week.

I think I mentioned in this blog or my other that Kristen and I had the opportunity to videotape our "story". One of our church's pastors showed it as an addition to his sermon today along with a videotape of another family that has been dealing with a trial this past year. I was nervous about petty things. Would I look stupid? Did I say the right thing? Did I wear the right thing? These I believe were all ways in which Satan wanted to take some of the blessing out of sharing our story. I believe that we haven't gone through the past year just to stand back and say well thank goodness that's over. God wants us to speak up. It's not about me it's about Him. That's my mantra. I kept thinking that before we were videoed and took a leap of faith that He would lead the telling of our story for His purpose. I had faith because nothing this past year has been about us. It's been about God.
