God is always with us

I have been getting a bit disheartened recently, there's 9 weeks till hubby goes away for 4 months and I'm just dreading it, 4 months is a long time to be away from your family and when you have a 10 year old who desperately misses his daddy and a baby who won't even remember him when he gets back, it's hard. Anyway, I suppose I've been feeling a bit sorry for myself and when he left on Sunday for 3 days I just couldn't stop crying because I knew next time we said goodbye it was going to be for such a long time.
So really, I've just been feeling sorry for myself!

But then the wee man came home from school yesterday and he had a little figure (a person with their hands raised in the air) made out of pipe cleaners. I didn't really pay much attention to it until he was going to bed last night and he out the figure on his shelf in his bedroom and he said to me "this is to remind me that when you praise God you get strength".

What a message!

I know God will get me through anything and I just am so grateful for this amazing little man who encourages me in so many ways, don't get me wrong, he's a perfectly normal little boy, an hour earlier he'd been sulking in his bedroom because I wouldn't give him ice cream but he can be so wise sometimes. he really amazes me with the things he says and the knowledge he has.

Yesterday afternoon I watched an interview on Revelation tv, a woman who had been into spiritualism was giving her testimony, she told of how spiritualism led to occultism and eventually withcraft, she told of how she had been converted and it was an amazing story, some of the things she had seen and been through were really scary.
When I went to bed last night I couldn't stop thinking about it and to be honest I was a bit freaked out. Hubby is away so I decided to leave the hall light on and i was laying in bed I looked at the blind on my window, right across the centre of the blind was the shadow of a cross.

I looked around the room and I couldn't find or figure out where this shadow was coming from. It was amazing really, I went to sleep last night looking at this cross in my window, knowing that God was with me and protecting me and I woke up this morning with this incredible sense of love and comfort.

God is always with us.
