Merry Christmas

So grateful Jesus walked this earth just like us & always goes before everyone of our battles.

Merry Christmas everyone. I know God is able and I truly do believe His promises but I'm in awe sometimes of the extra little things God does for us. As you all may know Travis had surgery exactly two weeks ago. I had trust that God would take the reigns of this dilemma but little did I know that he would make things extra special. Travis has been so mobile and active lately and I was not  expecting that. His very close to crawling and is playing with big brother all the time. His scar looks so good too. I mean what more could I ask for. I'm grateful for a loving God who despite my many flaws, still follows through with all His promises. May this story bring you hope in your current circumstance. He is faithful people.

Whom shall I fear?

The LORD is my light and my salvation-- whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life-- of whom shall I be afraid? Psalm 27:1


So the day is almost here. Travis surgery to release his tethered spinal cord is tomorrow morning. I've had several fears try and creep up in my head and negative thoughts but I'm constantly releasing them to God. There is no room for them and I ain't got time for that ;). We had our pre-op appointment about 3 weeks ago and the neurosurgeon explained everything to us. That being said, we're feeling very confident in the doctors, nurses, and staff placed on our journey. Also confident that God is able to do exceedingly above all we could ever ask. 

I share this because it feels comforting. My life and walk are NOT perfect obviously. I share in hopes that someone may also find comfort and strength in whatever they're facing. Somedays I don't feel like being thankful or grateful but then I'm reminded of all that I have. And how many situations I have avoided and the strength I feel, which I am certain is not my own. 

Why do I quote the bible? Because it reminds me of my strength in Him and encourages me. If there is a doubt in my mind, I know He has a perfect answer for me in the word. It also calls God into my circumstance, so that He can take control. 

So I ask for your support, love, hugs, prayers, encouragement, etc in order for us to continue on this journey :) Thanks for all the love because we truly feel it <3
