Welcome To Crystal's Blog

It is my prayer that God will use my writings to bless you today. I write straight from the heart. I write as a venue to praise God, and grow as a woman. I am a woman saved by grace! I am married to the most amazing man, and I have been blessed with four beautiful children. God uses my family to teach me and subsequently increases my faith in Him. At times I write through tears of joy, and at times tears of sorrow. Join me as I honestly share my heart and give God praise for His love!

Transition : Nothing But Trusting God

"Our Home"



Leaving my husband and older two boys in Korea was one of the hardest things I have ever done.  It was a strange feeling leaving a home without all our family members in unison.  Daniel and I are eagerly awaiting their return to the states.  As difficult as it has been to step out in faith, God has step by step guided the way.  I can't take credit for anything, as I have earnestly prayed and God has lead the way!  We found the perfect car for our family and the perfect home.  We are never crystal balled the tomorrows and what if's, but I have found comfort in knowing that God holds our future.  He desires the best for us, and when suffering arises, He walks through the "hard" with us.  There were momentary times of frustration, when I felt uncertain about purchasing a car and a home.  In these moments, in the midst of my jet lagged confusion, God swiftly answered my weary and tired prayers.  I am amazed at the swiftness of His answers!  There are still questions unanswered, but God has proven He is ever present.  Waiting for the moment to put an end to our questions. I can't imagine living life without knowing God is God, and knowing that He alone is the answer to life and eternity!

Crystal,

I love your honesty in this post, and the hope conveyed as well. God has provided a beautiful home (does this mean you're back in our city!?).

I trust the Lord will confirm your steps as you walk in faith.
