Living each day moment by moment

I have been deep into making sure to read each morning when I get up and at night before I go to sleep, my current reads are 100 ways to love your husband, by Lisa Jacobson, Making Marriage work and Good health Good life by Joyce Meyer, right now these books are seriously life changing books for me and I definitely encourage you to take a chance at adding them to your list of books to read. Last year our church gave us an awesome chance to share our testimony about Isaac,with the members of our church through a short video they filmed, it was seriously an amazing opportunity! This year has started off being a very blessed year from our oldest son visiting home from the Marines to a bit of a difficult one from my husband, myself and 3 of my kiddos coming down with the flu, which has given me extra time to dive into my books & Gods word, seriously providing me with such an amazing peace through these moments. I haven't taken the time to write in a while,1 because a lot of times I'm seriously so busy and overwhelmed with just the day to day duties, 2 I'm very self conscious of my grammar errors and just overall always jumping all over the place with my writing & 3 I just had so many things going on & I didn't know of any one thing to focus my writing on. So let's just start with Isaac, he was out of school for almost 2 months, since he was unable to receive his pamidronate infusion because his vitamin D was severely low and his dr. wanted us to get his levels up before we moved forward. Talk about a tough trying several months, you would think he was the one suffering the most through it but he faced it like the champ that he truly is. In those months he had 2 surgeries, several broken ribs, legs, arms and even a spinal fracture. I am seriously so greatful for the peace & true strength God gives to Isaac. If your a bit at a loss on where I'm at, and what happened to him that he was going through so much, let me catch you up as fast I can, Isaac was born in July 2004, when I was pregnant with him we found out about 5 months in that he had a form of dwarfism, he had broken ribs in Utero, a broken femur, the Dr also told us he had 6 fingers & he wouldn't live passed birth, since his ribs would cave in on his lungs, he was diagnosed with Osteogenesis Imperfecta also know as OI and brittle bones. We were sent to a genetics specialist and we were given the option to terminate. Well here is the link to our testimony if you would like to know more about our journey please follow here https://www.facebook.com/IsaacsWheels where we share more of Isaacs story on his FB page. Alright so like I said when I write I tend to be all over the place but let me get to what I wanted to share with you. Through these past few weeks of our struggles I have been really taking in a lot from my prayer time and the books that I am reading. If you are going through big struggles right now I pray that you are able to find peace through these moments and that you're being strengthened through each moment of struggle & through every tear that you shed. Know that we are Gods most beautiful artwork, and some of the most beautiful art pieces are made from broken glass pieced together to reveal true and one of a kind art work. Know that if you reach out and pray for God to give you peace and strength through your brokenness he is slowly piecing you together to reveal the true beauty he has called you to walk in. Allow your brokenness to be the thing that allows you to reach out to God with true desire to better know him and leave the worries of tomorrow in his hands. Now if you are struggling with just day to day life, stop.....take a deep breath and know that right now, this very moment is a gift, every second of every minute of every hour of every day is a blessing, stop....and take time to cherish the many blessings God has given to you, be it hugs from your spouse and or children to the beautiful sunrise in the morning or beautiful moon and stars at night. The book I am reading Good Health Good Life really is helping me to reflect on the here and now, and focus on each moment taking in that it is a true blessing. There are so many things I can sit here and focus on that at the moment definitely would cause my heart to grieve, but I'm also surrounded by oh so many blessings, which overwhelm my heart with such a joy and peace that give me a strength like I have never known. We weren't made to endure and go on this journey alone, wether you find peace in the smiles from your child/children to the embrace of your husband or the support of a friend, now if you are finding your self feeling alone.... know that God is there ready to embrace you and give you strength, peace & joy to get through the struggles you are now going through. Thank you so much for taking the time to read my blog and allowing me to share with you the word God has so gracefully placed on my heart! I promise to be back soon and not take such a long break! Prayers & love <3 ~Rocky
