Before Drake and I had Grayson, we didn't have a great relationship with God. I tried to but never really was committed. Once we had her, things changed. Drake and I both sat down and talked that we wanted our family (daughter) to grow up knowing God and trusting in him. We rejoined my church, went to weekly services and joined a Sunday school. We had Grayson baptized and met with the Reverend. We don't push our views on others and don't expect everyone to understand but in the past year our family has really rejoined God's family. I am so thankful to know that someone else is guiding me. I will never be by myself and I know that if God gives it to me, He will pull me through it. Our marriage is stronger and my heart is lighter. We have made great friends through church and have a stronger sense of who we are. I am greatful for this journey we are on and hope others can do the same.
Sorry to be so "deep" but I just felt the need to open up to what's really been on my mind lately.
I love this. Isn't it amazing how having a little one, puts things into perspective for us :)
ReplyDeletei love this too. we are still trying to find our way BACK to the church. and this kind of reminded me just how important it is to us and we need to get to moving!
ReplyDeleteMcKeever, I am so proud of you and Drake and your little family. You are definitely doing the right thing. Joey and I did the exact same thing. When we were first married we focused on each other not God. Once Alison came along we knew we had to change and I'm so glad we did. I'm not saying I am in church every single Sunday, but we are Christians and proud to be so. I enjoy reading Christian books, etc. and I love WMHK! You are blessed and I love you all.
ReplyDeleteGod is the beacon..his light will always guide you.. and he showed you the greatest love of all..Grayson. I am happy you rediscovered the Glory of God.. xo
ReplyDeleteMy husband and I are at this point too. We had our daughter last May. We are starting our first connection group on Sunday night. I hope it goes as well as your's is! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI am so glad that you shared this. I have noticed a difference in you through your blogging, and it is so inspiring. I have seen Gods light shine through you! We just watched Courageous last night, and wow, what a wonderful movie. It sure got hubby and I thinking that we need to step it up!!!
