Wow! I heard this one recently and thought it was so powerful! Hope it speaks to your heart as well! Have a blessed and safe Halloween weekend!

Unclean

Lately my mind and my “to do list” have been focused on clean, clean, clean. You see, my house could use a good cleaning from top to bottom. Especially before we drag out all of the Thanksgiving and Christmas decorations and bring in a whole new lot of toys, games and clothes. Since both kids have birthdays near the end of the year and Christmas presents will be coming in soon, it can get to be a bit overwhelming. That’s why it especially struck me when twice this week, once in chapel at school with my kids and then at church, I heard the story of the leper Christ healed. (I have come to realize when I hear something over and over, it is often God trying to get my attention.)

Why did this story jump out at me and what does it have to do with a clean house you ask?

To read the rest of this devotion, join me at Five Minutes for Faith.

Blessings,

Hello Friends,

First of all I want to say thank you to all of you for always being so faithful to post and join in on TSMS Saturdays. And I want to say thank you for always commenting. I know sometimes I don't always get them up right away but I do read them all on my phone and sometimes I don't get back on the computer to get them posted. It's seems life has just gotten crazier and busier so I'm not having a lot of time to blog and read blogs but I love that you all still come by to visit me!

Also I wanted to thank you for all of the prayers and well wishes while I was in NYC last weekend. My trip was fabulous! The shows were wonderful and the taping went well. I will post the link to the webisode next month when it airs during National Epilepsy Awareness Month.

Thankfully the kids and Greg were fine while I was away but Spencer did have a seizure this week when I got home. At least it wasn't while I was gone!

Tonight we had Mary Lyndsey's birthday party. She had a pretend sleepover party from 4-9pm with 14 little girls. Needless to say, my head is spinning right now! I'll be sure to post some pictures this week. We had a blast.

Been thinking of this song today since Mary Lyndsey also had her first Praise Girls performance today at school and this is the song they signed/danced to. I'll have to post some pics of that too.

Hope you all have a fabulous weekend!

Sweet Blessings,

Amy

Hello Friends,

I hope you are having a fabulous weekend! I am really excited because I am in New York City enjoying all of the fun things to do here. I am probably sitting in "Wicked" on Broadway as this is posting since I have scheduled it to post on Friday night. I'm here filming a video about Women Succeeding with Epilepsy for National Epilepsy Awareness Month. I wish you all could be here with me!

Please pray that Greg and the children get along fine while I'm gone and for no seizures for Spencer!!

I'm not sure why, but I thought of this song when I was thinking about what to post while I was in the city. Hope you enjoy!

Sweet Blessings,

Amy

Then Sings My Soul Saturday My Wish

I wanted to post this song last week too, but I was torn between it and the song I posted by Sanctus Real. Last Thursday was my daughter Mary Lyndsey's birthday. She turned 7! I can't believe it. Time flies by so quickly. I wanted to dedicate this song to her.Happy Birthday Mary Lyndsey!

Sweet Blessings,

Amy

Then Sings My Soul Saturday - Change Me

Have you ever gone through a period of time where you didn't like yourself very much? I know I am fearfully and wonderfully made, so that's not the kind of not liking yourself I'm talking about. I'm talking about knowing you should be doing more. Knowing you have somehow started to drift and now you feel lost and off course from the plan God has for your life. I'm talking about being frustrated for not having more self discipline. I think the feeling I have is what Paul was talking about when he said,

"I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do." Romans 7:15

Anyone been there? I heard this song recently by Sanctus Real and it resonated with me. My prayer is that He would change me from who I've been lately into who He wants me to be.

Praying for you to have a blessed weekend.

Amy
