At this moment



At this moment my mom and her faith excite me. When I was a little girl my next door neighboor (Tanya McGire) would get on a bus every Sunday morning and they would sing going there and coming home. I waited for her to get off the bus so we could play... then one day I told my mom, Im going with Tanya. From that point on, my faith was jump started, I had a great pastor who would come visit my family, I was baptised in Fremont at the little Baptist church.

Later after having Kira, we would go to church with my grandma and aunt and Kira got to experiance the connection that I had when I was a child.

As I approched my mom about coming with us, she always brushed it off and so I stopped asking.... so did my grandma and aunt.

Over the last two years, her life has changed, her faith has changed and she has this intense fire in her that take me back. She calls me and we talk for hours about life, our journey and our family. The Lord has blessed me with a young mom who is my best friend and since we grew up together, we continue to grow and now in faith.
We attended the Crusade a few Sundays back and to see the HP Pavillion (Shark tank) completely filled, with over a thousand people trying to get in, it was truely amazing. My goosebumps got tired of having goosebumps. We left each night from Friday to Sunday exhausted and uplifted. We met great people, saw great musicians and witnessed thousands coming home.
I'm not sure what the Lord has in store for my mom but I know he's watching and caring for her.
