It has been a whirlwind two weeks. Last week, Mike and I traveled to Ft. Leonard Wood, MO to pick up our soldier. It was a long, grueling 15 hour drive. But, I did get to spend it with this cutie. We watched Jason graduate as a military police officer for the US Army {mama…

Trust when the way seems unclear
Written on March 21, 2012 by MELISSA, MULTI-TASKING MAMA in busyness, dreams, faith, fear, life lessons, stress, surrender
This coming Monday I start a new job. A full time 9-5 J-O-B. It is the right thing for my family and I have peace about the decision. God hasn’t shown me the {full} why of it all quite yet. I like to know the “why”, y’all. It is hard for a recovering Type-A like…

Plugged In: Session 6- Pray Without Ceasing
This week we are focusing on the verse in Ephesians that instructs us to pray without ceasing. Is that really possible? I don’t know about you but I find myself praying much more often than I used to. In the car, when I see an ambulance drive by, when I drive by a cherry blossom…

Doing Real Life Together
Written on March 20, 2012 by MELISSA, MULTI-TASKING MAMA in announcement, confession, faith, friendship
Last night, Shayla was in the ER {she has severe bronchitis and a urinary tract infection}. It was late {or early, depending on how you look at it} and I was bored. I took an Insta.gram picture with my iPhone and it posted to Facebook. Within seconds, she was being prayed for. By my friends…

Easter Shopping Made Easy
Written on March 19, 2012 by MELISSA, MULTI-TASKING MAMA in frugal holidays, holiday shopping, holidays
I had a great experience with Red Envelope over the holiday season. I ordered a beautiful door mat for my grandparents and it was delivered right to their door. It was my grandmother’s favorite present of the year! So, when I was invited to repeat the shopping experience with them for Easter, I was happy…

Safe at Home
Written on March 19, 2012 by MELISSA, MULTI-TASKING MAMA in being thankful, faith, family, motherhood, parenting
We traveled 942 miles each way last week to Fort Leonard Wood, MO. Jason graduated as a military police officer for the US Army and this mama breathed a sigh of relief as we loaded his {very heavy} bags to bring him home. Is there any other place we, as mama’s, would rather have our…

Plugged In: Session 5

Living Your Priorities
Written on March 12, 2012 by MELISSA, MULTI-TASKING MAMA in announcement, being thankful, faith, family, marriage, ministry, motherhood
I hinted in my last post that I have had some surrendering to do lately. But, first let me tell you a story about a king named Saul and a time when he did what he thought was good, rather than what God had asked him to do. {That is not a recipe for success,…

Lent Fail…or maybe not?
There are two kinds of people: those who say to God, ‘Thy will be done‘ and those to whom God says, ‘All right, then, have it your way‘. C.S Lewis I typically approach Lent with a surrendered heart and a strong desire to grow closer to God in the weeks leading up to Easter….
