Feeling Good About God

Psalm 20-21 just reaffirmed to me that someone at sometime has been very thankful to God for bringing them to His side. In this case King David is overwhelmed with how great it is that God cares about Himself and has brought David to know salvation in the LORD. There is genuine joy in David's heart for God's goodness and justice. There is rejoicing, blessing, fulfilled request, trust, strength, wrath for evil and praise just to name some instances of God's ability and character in regard to his relationship with people and David's responses. 

Know that goodness will overcome and evil will meet it's end. There is no strength higher than God's and no weapon that will hurt Him. Though we ache and suffer in this present age there will be a time of overcoming what overwhelms us. When we see the end of our days we should rest assure that life could have been worse, if not for God. No matter the circumstance there is a great reward at the end of all things when death is thrown into the lake of fire, we will again rejoice!

amen to that. just talked with a woman at a store who lost her legs and was burned over most of her body including her face, badly scarred and yet, she rejoices in her SAVIOUR and loves HIM! she had a light in her beautiful eyes and her face shone. what a testimony she is every day just smiling at the world....makes me ashamed at my little grumblings.

Rector 2.0

So, on April 2, 2011, I woke up to this... I immediately showed Eleanor to confirm... "Momma, are you kidding me??!!" So, we held off telling our families until Easter and had a great plan to reveal Eleanor as the BIG SISTER at the dinner table... we didn't think about that lunch was right after her nap, so she was a little groggy and looks unhappy, but we couldn't keep it anymore.... So a few days later we tried to take some pictures again to prove that Eleanor is VERY excited! We can't wait to meet you, Baby Rector #2!! As of now, we look forward to November 22nd when you will enter this world... (you are due December 1, but because I will have a C-section, you birthday is currently scheduled for November 22!)... but we are SO thankful to the Lord for your life as you grow inside of Momma right now and we are praying FERVENTLY for you... same as we did for your precious, big sister... healthy baby, who chooses Jesus at an early age and never once doubts that Mom...

So... in the spirit of the final blog about our wedding - it is time we move on to more important things for the blogger world hear about - it is only fair that we share some of our amazing honeymoon! Us, and about 5 other honeymooning couples on AA Flight 6 on October 12, 2008, journey to the honeymoon capital of the world -- MAUI!! One of the things I regret most is not taking up Mindy's offer and bring along her legit camera - we really did a bad job at capturing the best vacation ever, but we'll remember.... It all started here - the most magical sendoff I could ever imagine for my wedding.... and there we go... off to start life together as Mr. and Mrs. William Rector...! Dum Di Dum Dum....the next day (check out my awesome ratted hair) We had to get up at 7am to catch our flight - note: this is NOT recommended for anyone getting married-- either leave after noon or the Monday... wow that was rough! On-board AA Flight 6 direct to Maui! BJ and I cruising to our hotel in o...

ALOOOOHA....

T hat's right friends - we are packing our bags and taking a little BABYMOON next month. BJ surprised me last week and had this little ditty all worked out... ...In fact I did work out all the details, only to rework them a week later after the final go-ahead from Karen. Her rationale was appreciated and wise, albeit not well recieved at first. I called her the fun-killer. Ironic I know... "I'm a fun girl!" her famous self proclamation. (this portion written by BJ) N ot going to lie - when BJ first told me about this trip I was a little stressed (it's the planner and realist in me)... I mean, our life is crazy - and obviously finances are about to go haywire when we get into our new house and bring baby home... but as a good reminder, I have been brought back down to earth in realizing that there will ALWAYS be an excuse, we have more freedom now then we probably will ever again and God has ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS been our Faithful provider... we have the funds, so i...
