This morning Parker and I were looking at the sunrise and I started singing to him You are God Alone. He said, "is God really alone?". I said, "well, he's God all by himself." He said, "Is God really by Himself?... I said, "It means He's the only God". He said, "Yea, but Jesus is God, too".... I said, "well, yea, but Jesus is also God's son". He said, "when I get to Heaven I'm not going to know who is who. I won't know which one is God and which one is Jesus because God wears a crown and Jesus wears a crown. God wears a coat and Jesus wears a coat":)... ahhhh, how sweet is that! I'm not sure if they're wearing leather coats but I can't wait to see.
The other day Andrew and I were laying in bed talking about Heaven and Andrew said, "who knows who gets to go to heaven?" I said, "only God knows Andrew, only God knows". I told him that a lot of people think they'll be in Heaven but they won't because they don't really know God and have a relationship with Him. We talked about the book of life and since then Andrew has said several times, "mommy, my name is going to be written in that book"... Oh, I hope so! Isn't that the hope of all parents that are believers? I remember my Grandma Glover had a plaque on her wall that said, "I have no greater joy than to know my children walk with the Lord". That plaque gained a whole new meaning to me when I became a mommy. It's all that really matters. What is the use of life if it's not lived to glorify God.. I pray daily that God will use their lives to glorify Him and that they will come to know Him as their Savior.

Prayers needed..
A friend of ours was in a bad car accident this afternoon. Scott, Jill and Bryce Attebery were traveling home from a family reunion when they had a car accident. Scott and baby Bryce have been released but Jill is in really bad shape. She was thrown from the vehicle. Praise God there was a nurse in the car behind them and was able to revive her twice before the ambulance got there. There was little hope she was going to survive at first but she's just come through surgery to fix some internal bleeding. NOW.. they're waiting to see what type of brain damage she may have. There's swelling and some bleeding around her brain. This family desperately needs our prayers Scott is a pastor in Eldorado. They just had their little boy a few months ago. I can't imagine what Scott is going through. I can't imagine what baby Bryce is going through. I'm sure he misses his mommy. Please keep this family in your prayers.

Prayer Request...
A sweet family really needs our prayers. I've been reading the blog Confessions of a CF Husband for a while. Their story is such a reminder to me that this world is not our home. Tricia has been battling Cystic Fibrosis for years, she finally received a lung transplant only to find out months later that she has developed lung cancer. She has been receiving treatment for the past several months and just found out that the treatments are not working and it's not looking good. Her and her husband also have the cutest little baby, Gwyneth. She has had a tough little life, too. She was born VERY premature and has overcome so much! Please pray for God's comfort and peace to be with this family.
