Praying?

Conquering fear starts with a choice to believe God's promises, and then taking a step of faith to act on them-Joel Osteen
Found this quote tonight...Perfect for some "personal" things I'm going thru right now. I have never been one to be open with what is going in my life...whether it's personally, emotionally or mentally. But, lately I've been struggling with life, decisions, my heart has been very heavy with things that are going on with friends/family and being a Mom. I've found myself questioning a lot of things that I do or have done. I've found myself hesitant on making certain decisions. Some days it can be very overwhelming. I have found myself praying alot, through out the day, at night, at the store, while I'm driving, while I'm sitting on the couch...staring at Brogan. I have never been a big prayer, not sure why...just haven't. But, in the last month...I do it ALL the time!! I'm enjoying it. I've gone thru alot in my life and I'm wondering why "now" is the time that I'm really reflecting on alot of it. Is it because I'm a Mom, is it because I'm older, is it become I want to be a different person or is it because I've starting praying?

Whatever it is, good for you! Aaron and I have been studying and learning for about a year now. It has made our lives more meaningful. Laying a foundation for the kids is also so important.. I am reading a book by J.C. Ryle and learning so much.
