How Great is our God!!!!

For 8 or 9 years my brother and his wife have prayed for another child.  Through the pain of several miscarriages, some really tough years in their marriage and a whole LOT of prayers from many,  God proved himself to them this past year.  Over the past year, God restored a broken home and then yesterday blessed them with a BEAUTIFL son.  Stephen Lane arrived in this world on March 29, 2010 at 5:59pm. I am overwhelmed with tears as I type this blog.  God never ceases to amaze me in His greatness!

Thank you Lord for the wonderful blessing of Lane to his mama and daddy, and to our whole family! Lord, I pray that everyone who is a part of Lane's life will not take it for granted of the instruction you give to each one of us for him.  We are all to be Christ's example and to have a part in his growing and maturing. Let us be everything You would have us to be in Lane's life. We thank you so much for this bundle of joy!  Amen.

Congratulations Ronnie,Becca and big sister Bethany!!  
Baby Lane....Aunt Tonya, Uncle Rock, Ryan, Justin and Camo love you very much! 

And just for the record....YES, I am a very proud aunt!!!!!  :-)

Cowgirl-Up for Christ!

Well, it is only Wednesday and this has already been a rough week but in the same breath a blessing! Through my troubles this week God has reminded me of a poem I wrote back in June 2009 for our ladies retreat.  I want to share it again because it has certainly renewed my spirit and I hope it will be of some encouragement to you. 

Cowgirl-Up for Christ

It is a spirit tried and true
Only Jesus can see you through
It is a decision to persevere and trust
Cowgirl-Up and follow the Lord
In this world we live in...it is a must
It is being faithful in times of pain
Your labor in the Lord is never in vain
No doubt you will stumble and fall
Just get back up and keep walking tall
He is the way, the truth and the life
With Him, you can overcome any strife
Love the Lord with all your heart
In Christ name, Never be afraid to be set apart!

Until next time my dear friends....God Bless!!

Tonya
