Thank Goodness It's Friday! I love it on the weekends when Chelsea and Christian come home for it brings life back to our empty house! This weekend is an extra special weekend because it is Chelseas 19th Birthday tomorrow on October 6th! Every Birthday is special.....but every Birthday with Chelsea here with us is one more than we thought we would have over 4 years ago! I also want to take the time to Thank EVERYONE who prayed for Chelsea during those heart wrenching years that she was literally dying of anorexia! Chelsea has people all over our Country praying for her......and she even had people praying for her in several other Countries too! Satan has tried and tried to steal, kill, and destroy her......but thank God, to no avail! Every year we celebrate her birthday, I can't help but stop and Thank God that His plan for her involves her still being here with us! She still has her struggles at times with bouts of depression and anxiety......but it has improved so greatly as she has learned to fight it! Then we have Christian too, who has brought so much joy and laughter to her life......and our lives as well! God is so great and even though sometimes I find myself complaining.....I try to always stop and think of all I have to be thankful for and how greatly I have been blessed! I pray that today each of you who read this, will stop and thank God for all the blessings in your life! If you are in the midst of the darkness, there is still something to be thankful for! When I was in the midst of all we dealt with, and I felt I could not go on anymore......God would remind me through a song, or a message, or a multitude of different ways that there was still so much to be thankful for! Today I praise God for Friday, because Friday has brought Chelsea and Christian home for Chelseas Birthday weekend!
