Our Father in Heaven

-


Matthew 6:9-13
"Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.  Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For yours is the kingdom and the power, for n'ever and n'ever...in Jesus' name, AMEN!" ~ Eliakim

Eliakim has been learning to pray since he was very little. And this year, he actually memorized the Lord's Prayer which I was really happy about. We prayed it every night with him before bed, and one day all of a sudden he just said it and I was blown away because I didn't realize that he actually knew it by heart! Now, he prays before he eats and sleeps, and he's gotten very good at praying on his own.

One really great resource that I believe has benefited us is
Bible Adventures for Kids. They have great Bible stories for kids and some really amazing songs and a bunch of great resources you should check out!

Eliakim's Soccer

So I finally got Eliakim enrolled in soccer during the summer and he was on the timbits team in Riverside South with Ottawa United Soccer. He enrolled a few classes late, but none the less, he enjoyed it! He made some friends and learned soccer skills, but having him on a sports team was really fun to watch! I hope to continue in the following years, enrolling him in sports activities that he will enjoy! We will see if soccer remains one of them :)

2021 Kingston Family Vacay

My absolute blessings. When we drove into Kingston, I saw an outlet mall that I wanted to go to when we returned. On our way back to Ottawa, we stopped by and it was much smaller than I thought but they had some pretty sweet deals. I bought 2 winter jackets for $20/each and clothes for the kiddos. I even got some work clothes for myself :) Two of my favourite men. So, about this night...we decided to go out in the town. But no one really knew where to go. We all got in our cars and drove around downtown Kingston. There was absolutely no parking downtown, and since no one had a specific plan to go anywhere, Ori and I wanted to eat dessert somewhere...but we all ended up back at the hotel. There was a decent restaurant at the hotel so we ordered poutine, what we were craving. They didn't have it on the menu but said they would make it for us. This is what it was. Ok, but not the real thing. BEST WESTERN hotel with the kiddos! They had a blast spending time with eachother in our room,

My Birthdate

 It is 12:08am on Wednesday August 31, 2022 and I am officially 38!!! Ahhh, when I think about the number it scares me a little bit...where did the time fly??? But I am ever so grateful for everything that God has allowed in my life and I have to reflect and share. Where do I even begin? 38 years of God's mercy and favour, protection and love over my life. He has blessed me with wonderful, God fearing, selfless, wise, kind and hardworking parents. I pray for God's continual blessings over them and their lives! AMEN Then, Neguissie, a husband that God gave me, to love and live with and share life with. Share 2 beautiful children with - Eliakim and Elkanah, God's blessings and precious gifts to us.  He has blessed me with a beautiful family and amazing and wonderful siblings, Selam and Zelalem; extended family like Titi and Radney and Ori, and countless friends and family. And countless other things...to God be all the glory. I would not be here today if it was not for God. H
