The Taylors Give Thanks...

God is so good!

I will start...I am thankful for parents and grandparents that taught me about Jesus! I am thankful for my sweet husband and precious children. -Christie

I am thankful for my family and for salvation through Christ. - Jason

I am thankful for my Mom (awww) and blocks. - Laura Rose

I am thankful for family and my toys. - Jacob

Update: We are all thankful for such a wonderful family to spend the holidays with. Thanks for all who came. The aunts, uncles, grandmas and cousins - it was so much fun! We are glad to be safely home again. Thanks be to God for all He has done and all He is going to do.


Wavering...

I am learning to set my mind to the things of the Spirit. When I waver - that is when the enemy gets an invitation to use me for an unholy purpose. Wavering tells the enemy I am willing to listen, I'll think about it. NO! I do not want to blend in to the things of this world, for the Lord has called me as one of His children. For a holy purpose.

That is my prayer for myself and my family, particularly my children. I want them to make up their mind to follow Christ, whole heartedly. To know truth when times of trouble come and when doubts creep in.

Jacob said something hurtful to his cousin Payton today. Jacob was broken-hearted over it. I love him so much and see such a tender heart inside of him. Please pray for Jacob as I feel that he is beginning to understand more what it means to sin and how much he needs the forgiveness of Christ Jesus. Praying: Lord - speak to Jacob's heart, give him understanding, do not let the enemy cause fear and doubts - no wavering - just setting his mind to knowing and living the truth of Jesus!
