Inner workings of a stay at home mom.

Okay I'm going to start this story off in 2005. I went to a camp in Kansas to work as what they call a "teen staff" I worked in the kitchen and on the grounds crew. This was WAY before my parents even thought about the disciple driven church! I loved it! I loved it so much I was thinking of how to put my life into something like that! The next year I was planing on going back! BUT God told me to sign up for this leaders in training at Calvary church and they sent me to Mexico for a week so we could build a house! I loved it so much I was trying to think of how to put the camp lifestyle into Mexico and whatnot! I went through a year of being discontent and wanting to go back to ether Mexico or Kansas! I finally gave it to God and I finally loved being home in my Missouri. Then my dad leaves my church and shakes up my world and God uses my dad's passion for what he is doing to change my heart! This brings us to 2008, this year! I start off the year on a Florida beach gi...

I wrote this poem on the way back from meeting with Richard Green, in Indiana. I often get inspired by Gods creation and this time it was the clouds, and words to a GREAT song(nothing but the blood!). this is a picture that i took of the Indiana sky. 69 Every bump of 69 gets to me with every hit you get to me every lyric of this song gets to me with every note you get to me every verse of the bible gets to me with every line you get to me with every thought you get to me. P.S. Bob there you go! hope you like it!

So I loved today! really I did! summer 74 and sunny, spring 60 and sunny, fall 50 and rainy, and last but not least winter 12 and snowy! isn't it great! well I just wanted to post before the end of the month! This year so far has been AMAZING!!Spending new year on the beach was great. God has been confronting me with A LOT of stuff every little thing I hand over to him he gives me something right back! Obedience=blessing! And that is what is going on with me! happy/clear minded/fearless Amy is what you get from now on! you better watch out! ~AEG~ P.S. I got my hair cut! I will try to get pictures up soon!

A couple weeks ago at my Wednesday night church we had a big breakthrough for this generation and generations to come. It was great for me because I was able to admit that i once had an eating disorder, depression, anxiety, and that I really never liked my-self till this past year when God healed me from it. That night I got home and I wondered to my self... If God healed me from everything that ailed me.... why then do I not read my bible or pray to him? If I cant serve the God who made me then what am i doing calling my-self a christian? this i assure you was not an attack from the devil.... It was a conviction! I went a few days reading my bible and had a few prayers.... I can't help but think of my Dads sugar packet illustration. there is a flesh side and a spirit side.... I have herd this illustration many a times but it never hit me like today..... I have been feeding my flesh side all my life... and barely feeding my spirit side.... I know how to feed my spirit side.... I ju...
