To those who do not know them then no need to read this post.
About Ali and pastor Health Ali is telling people she is not my couisn while i have told people i am for those of you who now think i am lieing please give me a chance to Elxiplan
You see her Dad Graig Burkhead grew up next to my dad Randy Davis, Our dads became as brothers they both born in the 50s and grew up from baby hood together my grandma called Graig her adopted son and he called her mom , all growing up he told me i was his niece and i didnt no any Diffrent at all so i thought Ali and Abby was my 1st couisns when i got older and new the turth to me it made no Diffrents they are still my family any way you wish to look at it our dads have been friends and brothers for 40 some odd years if not longer my dad is now GONE and how dear any one call my dad a lier when even Graig burkhead him self thought of my dad as a brother and all of us as his FAMILY hes still very much a part and comes around so
that is how Ali and i would be Couisns no not by blood or anything or adoption or anything but becasue OUR DADS CHOSE THAT PATH,
If she believes other wise thats her chose but there still my family that doesnt just change over 40 some years of our dads saying so HMMM
God Bless

God is a very Awesome God,
My husbands work cut hours way back so it is very hard for us to save for a car and the move to Spring Field MO we are so home sick and the reason i say home sick is becasue while iowa is where we was born and raised and is our Home, God called us to Spring Field Mo to be in full time Ministry me teaching the word and my husband in his music Ministry we have been down a few times and the people are so kind and loving there we long to be there big time and to get our place and set up his job and get every thing in order, We signed another years lease for this apartment but we hope we can get out of it by summer time and move to MO so keep praying over and for that.
As for the TTC news we prayed and asked God for a Miracle and still we havent had our Miracle baby it has been one big roller coster and battle for us but Gods in control and we need to keep the faith Always,
We have a new Niece on the way her name will be Sara gail she is due next year we are excited about her arivel.
That makes 6 of them three girls and three boys , Nieces and nephews 4 on my side and 3 on my husbands
Our three Cats Keep us busy and on our toes all of the time they are grate,
With out having a car we havent been able to get to church my husband has to walk every where in the cold please keep praying over a car for us we havent the money right now but we trust in the Good Lord for a miracle.
Ministry work is going grate as can be

Giving God the Praise in time of Test
it has been a while since i have last update, if there is anything i have learned over the past few months or so is that we need to Praise God even when times of test and trail come our way, my husband and i have been in one big storm that we just can not seem to even get out of we are geting hit one after another.
the 1st big test of our faith is when i had got hit with the tumor in the Summer but as you also Know God cast that nasty tumor out and i had a word from the 700 club i would be heard PRAISE GOD when they went in they could not fine that tumor i was healed but that was a Big test to our faith,
as many Also Know God has been calling us to Spring Field MO to go in to Full time Ministry he is calling me a Shy person to come out of my shell and to teach and preach to woman, also my Husband in to full time Music Ministry. well not to long ago my mother inlaw who also seems to be having a very hard time and us thought we would go in to an Apartment together down in TX ( being selfish and knowing GOD did not call us to TX we tryed to move forward with that plan ) How ever long story short My husband got a Job interviw down in MO we jumped to fast and to soon he got the job and we was fixing on moving there on NOV 10th how ever before we even left MO our Van broke down we had no money to fix it and it would cost more then it was worth we took a gray hound buss back to iowa and with no car and no way to move we knew it had not been Gods timing we acted on our own Wants and Selfshness of wanting to get out of iowa and leave it behind and start our new lifes
we about lost our place to live as well, My husbands job cut his hours way back and our rent went UP we are having a very hard time and can not even save for a car yet my husband walks back and forth in the Cold and has to walk to the store no one offers us rides infect family dont have much to do with us any more.
it hasnt been easy my husband has been praying some one would have the heart to buy or give us a cheep car they do not need any longer or even a used 500 car i havent been praying this way but he has told me every day as he walks in the cold he prays he asked me if it was wrong i told him not at all becasue if God would lay it on some ones heart it would be ok then its not bad to ask God for things we need,
And of Course the test of us not being able to have our own child or to adopt due to the cost of money it takes to adopt.
Things have been a very hard road for us
sure i could say give up toss the towl in and who cares about the calling GOD placed over us, but the truth is that would be taken MANS WAY OUT no instead i will keep praising GOD in good and in bad times i will praise God in test and trail and with every strom that blows in to our life.
becasue it is in those moments we are hurting the most that we can learn alot from God he has showed me how short life turly is and that with each test and trail it is a chance to grow in our walks with Christ.
you see God don't want us to give up he wants us to stay in there and reach for that Goal he set before us and at the end his arms will open wide and he will say well done my child. those are the words i wish to here when one day i step out of this world and in to Gods kingdom, we need to stay in this Walk with God it takes alot of Faith and leaning on him and trusting in Him but God will always meet our needs one way or another we praise GOD becasue we know some how some where there will be a car for us and we Praise HIM becasue we trust my husbands pay will go up we will have a child and things will look better we praise HIM even if it dont but we trust In him for all things acording to his Will not our own.
may God Bless
