Ultimate Restoration

I am very excited; this is my first blog entry on this website!! I am looking forward to sharing my thoughts, dreams, experiences, and inspirations with others. It is my hope that my words will be a blessing to others.
I used to write another blog to keep family and friends updated when my husband was delpoyed to Iraq. However, since he has been home I have not updated it. I am really encouraged about this apostolic venue.
I am currently pursuing a bachelors degree in English. As one can guess, when studying English there endless writing assignments. When I could, I tried to include Jesus in my writings. For this first post, I would like to share a Shakespearean style Sonnet that I wrote about my son (Jake, he is 8) and God's faithfulness.
I pray that it is a blessing to you.
Ultimate Restoration
My son you are the happiness of life;
Smiling, laughing, absorbing each day.
Overlooking its flaws and complex strife;
Ever rejoicing, and not led astray.
Trusting, you commit with all of your heart;
Never forsaking who you truly are.
Ready to conquer and wisdom impart;
Exploring, learning life’s world near and far.
But when for a second life throws a curve;
Throws you off balance bringing
fear and pain.
Broadcasting failures and faults undeserved;
Leaving your spirit desolate and slain.
Remember the one who brings forth healing;
Mistakes forgotten, His grace revealing.

I have been interested in writing for several years now but I have struggled with what avenue to pursue. I put it in the Lord's hands and have been waiting for HIS inspiration. For the past six months the devil has been attacking my family like he never has before. I saw this writing option and it just clicked. I felt like God said that it is time to share, others are going through what you have been-they need hear your voice. I pray for God's annointing, that I may be a blessing to others.
