ok, ok

Alright, so my world doesn't seem to be crashing down as much any more. Things aren't amazing.... but things are getting better. Things that were stressing me out on Friday aren't so bad right now.... please keep us/me in your prayers. A lot is going on. A lot of good things. A lot of exciting things.... a lot of scary things....so please just remember us when you can. Thanks!

Oh, and FYI.... please continue to pray for Tricia. The latest update I saw on their website today... she was discharged from the hospital! That's amazing! God is so great! And even during times when I'm feeling discouraged, I just read their story and thing "Wow! Look at what God can do! Look at what He IS doing!" And I'm just amazed. Especially since Nathan has such an amazing testimony throughout the time I've been reading. Now, I know that his road has not been easy.... and I"m sure that he's even questioned God. But his amazing amount of strength and hope comes from God. And I love that Nate & Tricia aren't afraid to give God the glory and let their story be heard.

If you haven't yet had the opportunity... check out their story . Continue to pray for Tricia that she will remain rejection and infection free. Continue to hold their little girl up in prayer as well. Gwyneth is doing amazing... join with me in praying the she continues this amazing uphill climb!

Thank you everyone for your prayers for us, and for them! Love you guys!!

*sigh*

I know God never said the road was easy but sometimes doesn't the road just seem to suck?

Ever look around you and see everyone's world going right, and yours only going completely wrong? And then you look back and say "crap, how the heck did I get here?" Especially when all you ever do is love, and try to honor God. You read the Bible, you pray, you attend church, and your not just a pew hugger you're actually active... and yet... nothing seems to go right. Even things that seem to go right... yep just end up all wrong.

That's pretty much my life right now. Just amazing... *uhhuh* So do me a favor and just pray for me. That smile... is all just fake. The only thing that keeps the smile coming is the fact that I know God is there. Always there. Sometimes I wish he'd find a better way to demonstrate a new learning mechanism.

Pray for Tricia....

Hi Everyone!

I just got home from work and class tonight. I went to my usual routine of catching up on today's blogging activities.... and for those of you who may follow my blog (I know there aren't many, but every little bit helps), or have followed their blog... from last update... Tricia recieved the call.... Yep! THE call. She was prepped and is in the OR as I write this. Please pray for her and her body to respond the way everyone is hoping. Please pray for the surgeons, and medical staff. Pray for her husband Nate who is I'm sure in an overwhelming emotional state... but pray that God gives him peace. And of course, pray for baby Gwyneth who is doing amazingly well... pray she continues to breathe well on her own, and drink from a bottle and gain weight. God is doing amazing things in their lives and through their lives..... catch up on it... and be encouraged.... but don't forget to pray. In fact, why don't you stop and pray for them right now..........................

here's their blog to cfhusband.blogspot.com

Thanks! God bless! Enjoy your evening!

Kellee

Please pray

Again, another urgent prayer request is being sent out.

Please take a few moments to check out http://deniseinsc.blogspot.com/ They need your intercession on their behalf. Pray for everyone in this newly expanded family.

Thank you everyone!

Bless the Lord

I just wanted to let anyone know... if you've followed them, that as of the update this evening, Gwyneth Rose is actually breathing completely on her own. What an amazing miracle. She's almost 2 pounds... but God is working miracles each day in her life.

I know that I don't actually know them, but... I rejoice with this precious family for the achievements that have made. The amazing hurdles they've had to jump.

God is soooo good! I thank Nate & Tricia for being so faithful to him. What a great testimony they have. If you haven't done so, please check out their site. cfhusband.blogspot.com (you'll have to copy and paste it since I'm a novice at blogging, and don't know how to actually link it up for you. Sorry) It will certainly challenge you in your walk, and encourage you.

God is good!

Have a good night all!

Calling all Millionaires

Hi Everyone,

I just thought I'd send a little shout out to any millionaires who may for some reason pop on by here to read. I'd call it God's provision... and Him providing a miracle in our lives.

You see, money has gotten a little tight these days here in the Flatt household. I"m a little embarassed actually to admit this.... but I thought maybe, someone by God's leading would pop by this sight, and decide to donate to Jeremy and I. Yeah, we could use about... anywhere from 1500 to pay for Jer's school to 10, 000 for a downpayment on a house. So, you know if you have an extra 10k sitting around with nothing to do... please feel free to write us that check and slip it in the mail. If you need our address you can feel free to email me at JKFlatt@oh.rr.com and I will gladly give it to you.

So thanks in advance for listening to God's leading. We really appreciate it!

So... we struck out on our first try.....

So last night we finally ventured into the world of looking at houses. We love our realtor! She is one of the nicest people out there. She really educated us on our first night out. It was very cold, educational, and humorous at times. Many of the houses we looked at had been on the market a while, and thus didn't have electricity. Therefore when it's 20 degrees outside, we were lucky if it was 30 degrees inside. One house, I was actually afraid to breathe in!! There were two houses that were more promising.... but they seemed like "lifers." Ya know, the kind that ya buy with the intention to live in forever. Not that it's a bad idea.... we were just thinking small, quaint, but more an extension of our apartment.... bigger, more room.... and something to show for our money. We've decided we don't need to have a living room & family room... and dining room..... we don't have the furniture to furnish all of those. Then it dawned on me.... I remembered back to my cousin's 1st house. It was small, but nice... and just what we're looking for! It had a "great room" which included their living room, kitchen and eating area... and then it at 3 bedrooms and a bathroom.... an attached garage.... and someplace to do laundry (I can't remember where that was right now). So.... if you see something like this, and live in our neck of the woods... please let Jeremy or myself know. We'd like to check it out!

Anyway, that's the update for now!!

Oh wait, one more. Tricia & baby Gwyn are doing well. Gwyn is getting bigger. Her daddy got to hold her for the first time this week. It was a cool video to watch. Had Jeremy not been sitting next to me, I probably would have shed a tear or two. Tricia is doing pretty well.. she's very weak... and needs some prayers... but as a whole she is doing pretty well. Again, if you haven't, check out their story..... http://www.confessionsofacfhusband.com (Yes this is a new website...but links directly to the other site.) Keep praying for them. God is working in their lives and it's soooo cool to watch!

Have fun everyone!
