Harvest America




Alright, so, best night in a long time!

It's so amazing to see so many believer come together for one purpose; to praise and worship God. Instantly, when The Katina's started playing their first song, tears came to my eyes. Just being in that atmosphere, I was so filled with joy! 
Lacrae also performed. I don't really know any of his songs but it's great how there are so many different genres that can help different people come to God. Looking at Lacrae and hearing him rap, if you don't listen to his words you would think he was just rapping about nonsense. As they put up the lyrics to his song and actually read them, he could draw so many people in and then they would understand and take in what he is really talking about. 
NEEDTOBREATHE came out and sang as well. I don't know many of their songs but one they played I absolutely loved. Again, it's so great to be able to worship God with hundreds and thousands of people! Ah it's just an incredible feeling. 
Kirk Franklin came out last and sang. He's a trip. He really gets you into it. Kye and I got up and danced with Kirk Franklin and everyone use in the arena! 
He had such a good time. At first he was kind of scared because this was the first time he was in a packed arena with loud music. But he started getting into it. Putting his hands up and clapping. He was too cute. 
Greg Laurie came out at the end and gave the message. About HOPE. I never actually heard him preach before but I would love to hear him preach all the time. My dad listens to him on iHeartRadio which I definitely need to start listening to. He is a great preacher who really gets the message across. 

I can not wait to go back tomorrow night. To hear more groups sing and to hear another great message from Greg Laurie. Who ever is reading this and is in the area, I invite you to go to HarvestAmerica.com and come to The Wells Fargo center in Philly to experience something amazing!

I love for the time when I can spend everyday like tonight. Surrounded by people with same purpose; to praise and worship God. That is my life goal!

Day One of Homeschooling

Image
  We did it!  Our first day of homeschool is complete. I woke up early and made the kiddos French toast and cut up some fruit. Excuse me, Luke cut you some fruit as you can see in our new vlog post! Luke woke up at 6 and I tried to get him back to sleep but that was clearly a fail as he left the room ten minutes after I did. We ate breakfast and Jack was still asleep. I thought for sure he would sleep late and we could start school without him.  😂 He woke up shortly after and then we were all on the same page by then. We took our pictures outside (Jack was not having it). And then our day began!  The kids were so excited to see their little gifts and the homeschool area all set up. We started our morning with a read aloud. We read Ten Apples up on Top since our topic is apples this quarter. The kids all got a composition book that we will use for the morning read alouds. They can draw or write whatever comes to mind as I read to them. It was cute to see what they al...

Where Have I Allowed Myself To Go?

Wow!  I haven't written forever and I pray I can get back to writing more because what that did for me was incredible. That was my quiet time where I could draw away from all the worries in life and just focus on God and what He has done for me.  This past year or so has been such a struggle for me. Marriage is HARD! I always knew it would be hard but not this hard! It got even harder when I drew away from God. I thought I could do this on my own when obviously this is a precious gift from God and why would I ever think I could do this on my own. I've struggled so much with balancing everything in my life. I've also struggled throughout this pregnancy. I have never been so emotional in my life. I feel like I lost all control over everything that was in order in my life. And I know the exact reason why. It has nothing to do with pregnancy or hormones. It has to do with my faith. I never denied to anyone or myself that I'm not struggling with my faith. I know for a...

Who Are We?

I listened to a sermon on the 4th and I have been trying to put all my thoughts together to write a post about it because it was so meaningful for me. It helped me realize a lot about myself and my faith. I am still trying to get all my ducks in a row for that post but I just wanted to give a little bit of encouragement. It seems like most sermons preached lately are about this craziness but out of that craziness there is a lot to learn! In Exodus 13-16 we read about how Pharaoh finally let the Israelites out of Egypt. All the Isrealites wanted was to be let go and what was one of the first things they did when they got out of Egypt? They complained. They started complaining about how they 'missed' things from Egypt.  Exodus 16:3 says   The Israelites said to them, “If only we had died by the  Lord ’s hand in Egypt!  There we sat around pots of meat and ate all the food  we wanted, but you have brought us out into this desert to starve this entire assem...
