I am not a good blogger..update...and God's plan

Well my last post was my very first post....that makes me not a good blogger!   I  have been thinking about my blog a lot lately....so I need to get back into blogging.

Since my last blog I was promoted to Nursing Supervisor for Able2, the kids had summer vacation and are back to school.  There is so much more but I really want to move on to the ways in which God is working his plan in my life.

Recently, well about 4 months ago I found out the I work with some amazing, faithful people.  Most people know that faith is not typically discussed at work.  I started to feel the need to share Jesus's love with others at work.  So needless to say I prayed on it and one day just started a conversation with co-workers relative to the new growth I am having.  Low and behold all 6 people I was talking with opened up about their walk with Jesus.

It was SO amazing to hear the testimony pouring out from each person.  We talked through our entire lunch break that day and then everyday after that, up until I had to move to a different location due to new position/job.  Well it did not stop with those six people, it spread out to other coworkers and I was invited to attend a Faith Group every Monday.

I have found out that although many people do not discuss their spiritual beliefs many want too, they just don't know how to get started or fear "offending" someone.  I will continue to open up about my faith in Jesus and will not worry about who I "offend".  Jesus is the person I was "offending" by not being open and honest about His love and the way it has changed my life.  Even with family members who Believe but only pray when all else has failed.  My motto is "Pray first not last because the results will AMAZE you!"

So until next time pray, pray, pray before ALL else fails not when ALL else fails.....the results will AMAZE you!

Have a Blessed day! Jenn

Getting started

Today I decided that it was a great day to start a Blog....so here I am typing away on my computer keyboard.....that brings to mind ebony and ivory keys of a piano....oh how I wish I was musically inclinded. 
Musical abilities is not something God graced me with as a child or an adult.  I love music; to clarify I enjoy most music.  My DH is a hard rocker from the 80's & 90's, but I'm not so see I do not love music.  My kids love to rock out to any type of music; they have all been blessed with some sort of musical talent and what they were not blessed with the DH has taught them.
Anyway I started this blog to discuss my evolving relationship with God.  I have always "believed" in God however I never truly believed in GOD.... that was until April 11, 2010.  I had been going through the motions ~ you know going to church almost every Sunday....I said I was a Christian however I did not know what being a Christian really was until that Sunday April 11th. 
I had just been released from the hospital on April 8, 2011 due to having two mini strokes and I decided that because the doctor wrote activity as tolerated on my discharge paperwork that meant I could go to church ~ because that is what a Christian person does......well we had a special speaker that day "Bob Lenz".....if you want to listen to an amazing speaker then look him up online.  Anyway....at the end of sermon Bob asked the worship team to get back on the stage and play while he invited people up to accept Jesus into their heart.
I knew in that moment that I was one of those people going up to accept Jesus into my heart.  I cannot explain how I knew, it was a choice I made however there was something within me telling me to go up there and just do it....(like the Nike slogan).  So I did and I can't begin to tell how amazing, inspiring, beautiful it felt to open my heart and let the Lord in COMPLETELY!!!! 
Since that day I have felt a change within me like no other change I have ever felt, so as I write in this blog it will be more and more about my growing relationship with God, my husband and children as well as others.
Hope you have blessed day! Jenn
