Missing the Hubby

My husband left early yesterday morning for Oklahoma to do his last training for his deployment. I have done about all the cleaning I can do without tearing down the walls. I am missing him a lot! I just listened to Christian Military Wives radio online and what a really great show! I listened to an interview between the writer and of Faith Deployed and it was wonderful. She is very inspirational, she touched on a lot of topics but one really hit home with me. She spoke about us military wives comparing ourselves to others and basically thinking "that's all they have to deal with, try being in my shoes". I am ashamed to say but I have done this and lately I have done it often. We get so wrapped up in our own lives and realizing how hard it is that we forget to have compassion on others. I have failed miserably at being compassionate recently.It is very easy to do when you are facing difficult circumstances.
Galations 6:3-5
Help carry each other's burdens. In this way you will follow Christ's teachings.If anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.Each of you must examine your own actions. Then you can be proud of your own accomplishments without comparing yourself to others.
When we really look at this scripture it is very easy as a Military Wife to compare ourselves and think about problems of others as miniscule but remember everyone has different burdens and we need to help bear them and do not be prideful but pray and encourage each other. We often forget to encourage one another. As you encourage others you will be encouraged also.

Abortion

Welcome my military wives. homemakers, and mothers! Its been an exciting year in my family, we packed up and moved across country with the twins babies now toddlers. They are potty training right now and it is so much fun! This year of 2010 is going to be a blessed year by God! I am speakign blessings over this year and believing that God is going to do some awesome things! I had a great Christmas and Happy New Year, with my hubby and boys! I hope you did too! I want to tell you about some very interesting websites addressing abortion I found, i was very surprised that they existed. abort73.com and 22weeksthemovie.com! 22weeks is a new movie about a woman who had an abortion the baby born alive and and she had to listen to her baby die whil lockd in a bathroom! This happens all the time in America and finally someone is taking stand against Abortion. I thought this would be great movie for our liberal friends to watch and even our conservatives who thinks its ok sometimes!May God be with you this year!
