good news...

...We had been worried about finances, and that has since been resolved.

...We have been worried about Josh getting a job here locally, and we got a call yesterday for an interview for a position he would REALLY love to have... I'll be sure to keep you updated after the interview date.

...I have been feeling down in the dumps about myself, and decided to do something about it. So far, I have worked out in some form or another every day of summer break. I am so proud of myself! It's amazing how it helps me not only feel better physically, but more energized emotionally as well.

...And, on a much smaller (but still significant) scale, Josh's sister, Laura, found us the most awesome filing cabinet for only $15, and now I have all my paperwork & bills organized- I feel like a new woman!

"The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds..." -Phillipians 4:5-7

That's how it is that I come to you with a post filled purely with good news.  I pray... And I pray... And I pray. 

Then, when I can't pray anymore, I just take a deep breath and trust God.
