Walk by Faith

This was an uneventful week in the Tomlin family. We celebrated our 2nd wedding anniversary. I am feeling great, my only complaint is that I am so tired most of the time. I have not gotten sick yet, which is such a blessing. I am 7 weeks now. We go next week (the 24th) to have our first sonogram to meet Baby Tomlin. We can't wait. We are already overfilled with joy and we haven't even met this person yet.

This is a big week for Cory. He takes his paramedic certification exam. This is the time we (especially Cory) have been waiting for so long! I am so proud of him and all he has accomplished. He is truly living his dream and calling in life now. I will admit that this career was not in the ideal chosen path for me. But the Lord has taken control. I remember coming home from our honeymoon two years ago about this time. We found out that the place Cory was employed would be closing soon. Here we were coming off the high of getting married and going to Kauai and now he would be unemployed. We had just bought our first house. We were quickly brought to our knees. These were some trying times for us, but the Lord never failed us. He has truly blessed our marriage and careers in so many ways. He has placed so many people in our lives at the exact time we needed them. It is amazing to see how far we have come in two short years of marriage. Then, now we are expanding our family.
The song by Jeremy Camp "Walk by faith" comes so clearly to mind....

Will I believe you when you say
Your hand will guide my every way
Will I receive the words You say
Every moment of every day
Well I will walk by faith
Even when I cannot see
because this broken road
Prepares Your will for me
Help me to RID my endless fears
You've been so faithful for all my years
With the one breath You make me new
Your grace covers all I do


Jeremiah 29:11
"For I know the plans I have for you" says the Lord. "They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope."

We truly trust this. We know that God will never lead us where he can not keep us. He has blessed my life so far with so many blessings. I have a wonderful husband who is a believer. I have a wonderful family (my original and married). I have an endless amount of dear friends who support me in numerous ways. Now I will be a mother. This is what life is all about. We thank you all for your love, prayers and support. We love you so much!
Walking by faith,
Tomlins
