What is going on in our world?

The Bensen's are doing good. I have no pictures with this post but Kailyn is having a great time next door with Mrs. Johnson and Nadia. I need to take my camera over and get a picture of the two of them together. Kailyn seems to be enjoying watching her dance and play. They both conk out for long afternoon naps. Brad started back at school and things seem to be going good this semester so far! I am surviving being away from my sweet girl but miss her like crazy. You can be praying that God will give me peace and contentment where I am in my life right now. I certainly am looking for God to fill me very day and to show me opportunities at work. Ryleigh still loves Kailyn is always excited to see her when we get home at night. We went to Atlantic Beach last weekend and Kailyn was at Grandma and Grandpa Gibson's house. We enjoyed our time away at the beach. Being looking for a post to come when we head to the Panthers game on Saturday night. Kailyn is going to wear her Panthers cheerleader outfit. She will be the cutest baby at the game!

Summertime '09

Here are some pictures of Kailyn from the summer. She is getting bigger everyday. I have gone back to work so Brad has been Mr. Mom and doing a great job. I miss her so much during the day but appreciate the time that I have with her. This past Sunday Kailyn spent the night with grandma and grandpa Gibson. It gave Brad and I a chance to go to a movie.

She enjoys lifting her head to look around the room.

I was able to go to a Deeper Still Conference July 31-August 1. Kay Arthur, Beth Moore and Prisilla Shirer were the speakers. The Word was brought to the hearts of all of us. The nuggets that I received and taken with me,

1. Don't put God in a box because

Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever, Amen. Eph. 3:20-21

God is able!

Encouraging me to allow the power of God to work through me to do what God has called me to do and that he will provide all that I need to do this. Just excited what God has in store for me in the future and what adventures we will be embarking on in the coming years.

2. There is a difference between religion and a relationship. That we need to have a realtionship with Christ and getting to know Him above being concerned about the details of a religion.

3. God's presence is always with us. He provides for our every need. Ex. 16:30-36
