Josh Wilson - Before The Morning (Official Music Video)




~Psalm 30:5 .... there may be weeping in the night, but JOY comes in the morning.
I know that something bigger than ourselves will be birthed out of this experience. I feel it, deep within my spirit...that this dark chapter in our lives is part of a much bigger plan. He holds us in the palms of His hands. He is literally the One holding us together. I know that ALL things work together for the good of those who love the Lord. He holds our future, and we have a future full of hope. He has our best interest at heart...ALWAYS. Even when I can't see it..I can trust it. We are here for His glory and His purposes...it's not about us. We are not here for ourselves, but to bring glory to Him is our highest purpose. Someday, this all WILL be a memory, and we will look back and say, "Look what the Lord has done!!"
~hope this song blesses you,

Jessica Potter Photography

You may have noticed the updates to our blog..including all the new pictures:) All these photos were shot by Jessica Potter. We enjoyed Jessica so much... she is friendly, fun, bubbly, creative and super with the kids! I have to tell you this is the first time, in a long while, that we went to take family photos and Derek and I didn't walk away frustrated (sweating, grumbling unsavory words..you parents know what I'm talking about)!!! In fact, we all loaded back up into our van and drove off with smiles still on our faces..it was completely relaxed!! What I love most about these pictures...she really did capture my kids!!! Little gestures and mannerisms that I see everyday, that a photographer who was 'posing' them could never get!! I think this is the difference..rather than posing us, she just told us where she wanted us and then it really felt more like we were just hanging out. When Selah would move out of place, Jessica just kept taking pictures. Welll... I have been trying and trying to post a link to a slideshow or post a slideshow...to no avail!! Anyway, I posted a few on here, I hope you enjoy!!

Thanks for looking:)
