Dairy Free
I have started a dairy free diet for Matias. Since I am his only source of nutrients and he seems to be having issues with dairy I am cutting back on dairy. I have heard that dairy is one of the most difficult things for our bodies to digest. So per pediatritans orders I am giving this a try. Shoping for groceries is difficult as your common everyday store isn't geared towards dairy free consumers. There are things I bought that I thought were dairy free but contain some form of dairy. That'll teach me to stick to the list. I have only been doing this for a few days so I still crave things like ice cream but Iam finding alternatives. I ordered 2 books today to help with this change one for Pablo and I one for Matias. So the adventure begins. This will be my journal of going dairy free. Maybe it will help you too.

Election 2008- Now what?!
I received this encouraging word from my pastor today and I whole heartedly agree.
Let us shift our prayers toward Barack Obama, the salvation of him and his family, his protection and he would be used by the Lord, etc...Byron’s sense is we are not to be critical and complaining but are to pray for our leaders as Paul directed us to.
1 Timothy 2:1-5
First of all, then, I urge that entreaties and prayers, petitions and thanksgivings, be made on behalf of all men, 2 for kings and all who are in authority, so that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and dignity. 3 This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, 4 who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.
“If we will have this heart I know we will be in sync with the heart of God. We will have to trust Him with the results of the election.” Blessings, bw
My two cents: After all what good does it do to groan and complain? Let's just be glad that we still have a voice. We should use that voice to encourage rather than discourage, to build up not tear down. LIFE and death are in the tongue. I choose LIFE. God is in control. He is not surprised, He will protect and keep us safe.
We can let our desires be known by contacting our senators and reps. This is not a time to give up or lie down. Now more than ever before is the time to lift up our leaders in prayer and join together. Let us be like the sons of Isaccar knowing the signs of the times and acting accordingly.
Resting snuggly in HIS arms,
