HERE’S WHAT’S UP: TWO PHRASES
1. Do NOT fear
2. Do NOT worry
We woke up this morning and these are the phrases that are ringing in our head. Fear and worry are two deadly enemies. They have a way of killing your hope, your vibe and your courage. They could easily sink you into a pool of depression and disbelief. So this morning, we are choosing to neither worry nor fear. It doesn’t matter the circumstance. Scripture says, “be anxious for nothing!”
We should rather pray about everything with all manner of prayer and supplication and the God who loves us will give us peace. Peace, that surpasses every human understanding. You see, as human beings, we have our pre-requisite for peace. We think everything should be fine before our hearts can be at ease. But God tells us that the peace He gives surpasses our understanding. He can give you peace even in the midst of that storm. He can give you peace when you have every reason to worry. That’s the kind of peace He gives.
In other news, the man we married, Mr. N travelled for a conference this past weekend. You guys, this has not happened in three years. For the past three years, we have seen each other every day. Every. Single. Day. So when he travelled, we started missing each other like crazy. That led to lots of phone calls and texting until he got back home. Just like teenagers in love. Ha.
Then, our hair-dos need change. We BADLY need to change our hair style and that of our three daughters THIS WEEK. They’ve had their yarn and crochet braids on for about two months and they are all begging to be changed. This is where the struggle of having daughters is. We often dread when we have to undo all three hair-dos (plus ours, four!) Then we have to detangle, wash, detangle again and re-style. It is pleasing to see their hair well made but the process! The process isn’t easy.
We also need ideas on the next hair style. We have made all sorts of styles on their hair from cornrows to crochet braids to regular braids. Sometimes we just don’t know what to do with all this hair. If you have any cute hair ideas for little girls, please share below. And if you have ideas for ours too, please share. Thank you!
January ends tomorrow? Whaaaaaaa?? Life happens so fast. It’s like we just got into 2017. You guys, we are immensely grateful for how the year has begun. Immensely! We couldn’t ask for a better start of year. Though it began with an annoying neck pain, we still went on to accomplish far more than we could ask for. Thank you, Jesus! And thank you, for always being here with us. ♥
Let’s make it a great week. What’s up with you?
