Cynthia loves to Praise the Lord! She has a very thankful heart I am thankful that God is opening up the eyes of my husband and myself to the problems in our marriage now,, while they are small... and fixable,, our marriage is in transition,, and it is already showing signs of improvement,, mostly because God is working in my heart and giving me the courage to voice the needs I have without the fear that the world will come tumbling down around me should I depend on someone other thatn myself... My dh is showing me that I can depend on him,,, I am falling in love with my husband again,,, and it is with small baby steps that I voice my fears and doubts,,, realizing that he needs to be my #2 in my life and God needs to be my #1. I am upon a season of healing and I am soo ready and so desiring more from God and the life he has given me!! "Oh that you would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, that your hand would be with me, and that You would keep me from evil, that I amy not cause pain!" She joined the worship team at her church last November I LOVE THE WORSHIP TEAM!!!!! I was really nervous at the practice before church,, but sailed right through the service,,,, I even sang melody on my own for the last song,, while Rob (worship leader) sang harmony,,, he said,, well you were doing just fine on your own!! Praise God it turned out so well!!! I was on fire yesterday,, I found a place to call my own in leadership in the church,,,, it was wonderful,,,, I tell you,,, all of you who are thinking of joinoing your worship team at church ,,, do not delay,,, DO IT KNOW!!!! IT IS SOOOOOO WORTH IT!!! I loved worship at church before I joined worship team,, but nothing to how in compared to being a part of the worship leadership team!!! All I can say is WOW!!! And why did I wait so long to follow what had been on my heart for so long!!! Thank you for all your prayers and thoughts!! I could not have done it without all your prayers and support! God's ways are not our ways,,,,, Thank God!! It is a confort to know that God wallks befeore me,,, preparing the way for me,,, so I can know without a doubt that I will never walk alone,,,, he walked the path before me,, He will walk it with me as well!! I can look back on my life and say,, I would not change a thing,,, even the abuse of the past,,, God allowed and KNEW those things would occur in my life before they happened,,, and it is because of sin,,,, not because of God that they happened,,,, God used my trials for Himself,,,, I would not be half the woman I am today had it not been for my past,,,, God has turned everthing into a benefit for HIS glory,,,, MMMM, I am so praising God this day,,, God has lit the fire with in me,,, I feel renewed today and refreshed and ready to take on the new challenges in my spiritual walk that God has in store for me!!! OUr God is an amazing God!!! Slow to anger and abiding in steadfast love!!
