Waiting to teach...Ready to learn

Back from being MIA

Posted in This week in the Silver lining

Hello everyone!

 

Sorry for being MIA for such a long time!  Is it just me or are there a lot of us 'Missing In Action' from our blogging so far in 2006?  I wanted to write a note to say we are ok...Just really busy and a bit stressed.  I've copied and pasted a few 'happenings from our side' that I sent in email to a friend today in hopes to save on time and still be able to post something about what's been up. 

 

...I met this awesome lady that really reminds me of my great friend Betsy…and the more I get to know her the more I find her similarities to her!!!  She is a writer and has 2 blogs which I enjoy reading. 

Here are links to her blogs too for your enjoyment:

But I on the other hand, have been horrible at writing in my blog.   Not because of grammar or intimidation but because of timing.  There are a lot of things to say…such as my sister coming down on Monday night with her baby  boy  until April 17th(when she goes back to pack her things up and come back again-her husband will be training in California till April and then will come join her for a two week vacation here and then they both go back on 17th of April and she gets to pack and when he leaves to Iraq in June/July then she’ll come live here for good).  I can't wait for Monday!!!!  I'll post a pic of my nephew here for everyone to enjoy!

Also, I don’t know exactly how it is happening but we are in the process of having a house remodeled for us!  Friends from church are into real estate investing and selling.  They are fixing this house in Leesburg that they purchased and The Lord put in their hearts to have us look at it to buy it when they are done.  I don't know how but so far every door has been opening! 

 

I guess I just have to trust Him that He is taking care of it.  We’ve been under a lot of stress financially and have had to move out of our apartment and in with another couple at church.  (Which God totally orchestrated a situation that made it so that we could get out of our lease in less than a week with no penalties –-Since we are buying the house in March and would have had to break it anyway-- and not have to come up with another month’s rent)!!! 

 

However, now that things are a bit tight, it will be hard to know how God is going to do it.  But I really hope that time just flies by and we can get out on the other side ok.  I really hope that nothing changes and we get the house….but I also just want to not be stressed about anything.  Jesse is actually trying to get another job on the side to help provide for us.

 

Since work has not been easy, the time that I have here I try to not use updating my blog or emailing too much….I’ve been trying to be responsible on sales.  Someday I'll get to be 'stay-at-home', but for now, God has placed us in this situation for His purpose and I just want to do the best I can at it.

 

Anyway, thank you to all those that have been lifting us in prayer.   And let's continue to lift up  Jeremy and Elizabeth, BeckyJoie and Doug, our country and if possible; yours truly (the Silvers)...for health and provision.  God bless everyone!

 

Love,

Lyssie

I'm not a homeschooler....Yet! My husband and I have actually been diagnosed as unable have natural children. So I feel like in life, I am just waiting. Waiting to have the children to teach things to, or waiting for the joy of home-schooling, or waiting for an answer on something, or a house, or waiting to learn some new thing God wants to teach us. Either way you look at it, we feel that we are just usually 'waiting'. In the mean time, we just keep our hearts open and our eyes peeled. In due time, we will know and understand. WARNING: THE VIEWS PORTRAYED HERE ARE SOLELY MINE AND DO NOT REFLECT THE MENTALITY OF ALL CHRISTIANS OR ANY ORGANIZATION. I AM HEREBY WARNING YOU THAT AS A HUMAN I CAN MAKE MISTAKES, HOWEVER, I PRAY THAT I DON'T AS MY JOB ON EARTH IS TO BRING GOD'S WORD FORWARD IN LOVE AND I BELIEVE HIS WORD IS NEVER WRONG.
