If I wrote something like this, I fear it would feel books and books! <br /><br />My dear Patrice, one of my favourite songs ends by saying God let us go through hard stuff so that he could bring us out. I am sorry that you had to go through all you did but then again, look at who it has made you today? You are writing stuff that is blessing me? And I am sure it is blessing others too. Ordinary women cannot live victoriously after such. Only phenomenal women can. And as far as I see it, phenomenal women, real phenomenal women are powered by a phenomenal God.<br /><br /> Salthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11634990424725213295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3670592512808277899.post-11393771307838474472013-01-26T09:05:49.037-08:002013-01-26T09:05:49.037-08:00I LOVE that I have found your blog.

I am 31 and I still HATE the dark, I hate when my husband goes on travel because I feel like I'm home alone and the boogie man is going to get me… I really do feel this way- but according to GODs scripture, I have no reason to fear any of these worldly things- because he is with me, he has me. I really enjoyed this post.

Isn't that awesome Patrice? That means that God, so loving, knew that this world of ours will get to the place where he would have to assure us EACH DAY that we had no need to fear! <br /><br />You nailed it, one of the best antidotes to fear is God's word cos it boosts our faith so much. It boosts our Faith. Faith trumps fear all the time. <br /><br />As you stand on the promises of God in your life, may the peace of God overwhelm you in Jesus name. Amen!

Of course I don't recall any of it, but my parents were gracious enough to remind me of it when I was older. :) In all seriousness, some kids aren't as lucky as me and so I'm glad that God answered prayers and I was able to live and know Him. <br />Don't you just want to have Al, Savannah, Matt & that other gal over for dinner??? LOL They really make it look so easy, so EARLY in the morning.<br /><br />God bless you!<br />PatricePatricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10020118132822859180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3670592512808277899.post-89153512741683108202013-01-25T09:30:27.697-08:002013-01-25T09:30:27.697-08:00Hey!

I found your blog from Shaina's Liebster Award Nomination and I'm so glad I did! <br /><br />You're blog title is what initially caught my attention and then you made me laugh while I read through this post. I watch the Today show every day! I was just telling my husband last night how much fun they always seem to have on the air. lol <br /><br />I also loved that you said you loved smoking for 8 years. I've never been a smoker (other than a few in my teens) but I enjoyed the realness of that statement. <br /><br />Were you really kidnapped as an infant? <br /><br />I'm following you now and am looking forward to getting to know you better!
