Sweet Saturday Morning

I love how the morning light is caught in Caleb's eyes... he is in that sweet, just woke up, glowing mood. I wish I could accurately capture this moment on film... it's so precious to snuggle up next to him, look into his bright eyes and feel like we are the only two people awake in the whole world. He has grown so alert these days- and his eyelashes have grown a mile over the past week! They are gorgeous! He has begun sleeping longer at night! Four nights in a row he has eaten at 7pm, eaten again at 8pm, and then slept until 1am! It is wonderful.


The church is all-a-flutter with activity today. Praise team is practicing... some ladies are making soup for the Beth Moore Simulcast... Taylor Hall is being decorated for our Coffee House tonight... I love it. There is life here at Trinity! It feels like we are really being the church- opening our doors, doing ministry! We are on the precipice of great things... if only we will allow God to do all that He longs to do!

Full of lovin'

Yep, those cheeks are full of lovin'! Caleb is 10 weeks old and 14 lbs! And he has begun smiling! I can't express how it thrills my soul to see his face light up when he sees me. And it is this joy that makes the long nights bearable. Even going to work is okay, because when I come home to feed him it's like I'm his long-lost mama... he smiles and wiggles until he is safe and warm in my arms- knowing I've got "the goods".

Our church is still struggling to move in a forward direction- but I am glad we are reading the book "Power Surge". Hopefully this will help us move from a membership driven church to a discipleship driven church. Earlier today I was reading in Mark 7, about a man who was deaf and mute... and Jesus healed him- I know He can heal Trinity too! "And they were astonished beyond measure, saying "He has done all things well. He makes both the deaf to hear and the mute to speak." I know He will do all things well concerning Trinity. I put my faith in Him!
