Against All Hope: New Life
http://rachellebelievinggod.blogspot.com/2014/04/new-life.html
Friday, April 25, 2014. I'm alive in there! I can only imagine Mary, the mother of Jesus, when she saw that He was finally dead on the cross. She probably hoped and expected He would do something miraculous and still be alive. I don't know if she fully understood what was happening or not, but can you imagine her joy when she heard that Jesus was alive after dying and being buried in the tomb? Yes But for obvious reasons, why would have expected to be pregnant since I took birth control this month? Div a...

Against All Hope: April 14, 2014
http://rachellebelievinggod.blogspot.com/2014/04/april-14-2014.html
Friday, April 4, 2014. April 14, 2014. On the outside it would appear that I can barely keep it all together with two kids, so how could we even possibly think of adding more? She said that she had a book she felt like God had wanted her to give to me. She had boy twins that were about 7 years old. The book she gave me on April 14, 2008 was The Art of Parenting Twins. Would we still have boy twins? Did I hear wrong? Would we adopt boy twins, one that would already be named Jonathan? Every April 14 I alwa...

Against All Hope: New Cradled Group in Tennessee!
http://rachellebelievinggod.blogspot.com/2014/07/new-cradled-group-in-tennessee.html
Tuesday, July 8, 2014. New Cradled Group in Tennessee! We have lived in the Nashville area for a little over a year. I was going through a bit of a mid-life crisis in the sense of not knowing exactly what my purpose is right now- where do I best use my gifts? Or is there something new I am to be apart of? I felt stuck- are we having more kids? Are we supposed to adopt? To be used today? Should I lead a women's Bible study? I had just helped out with our middle school group at church for their "Go Week" (...

Against All Hope: I Feel No Shame
http://rachellebelievinggod.blogspot.com/2013/07/i-feel-no-shame.html
Friday, July 19, 2013. I Feel No Shame. AP Photo- Austin/American- Statesman, Jay Janner). Let it be food for thought. I understand these women are angry, because they feel that rights have been taken away and that government is telling them what they can and can't do with their bodies. But again, whose rights are we aiming to protect? Have these babies not been silenced before they ever had a chance to speak? What about the women who never got a chance to stand up here, because they were aborted? I know...

Against All Hope: The Storm
http://rachellebelievinggod.blogspot.com/2014/04/the-storm.html
Monday, April 28, 2014. Many of you know the Hurst family's story. David passed away 6 months ago from brain cancer. (You can read about it here. Http:/ www.youtube.com/watch? He is with us in the storms! He is not asleep, but the message is that our cries are worth His time and focus. He cares so deeply for those who are hurting. The Bible promises "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." Ps. 34:18. I know many of you have endured storms in your life or maybe y...

Against All Hope: Team Hurst
http://rachellebelievinggod.blogspot.com/2013/10/team-hurst.html
Friday, October 11, 2013. I have been silent for awhile, but that does not mean a lack of emotion or empathy for people all around me who are struggling and suffering. Yes, there are joys amidst the pain, but it makes Heaven seem so much sweeter and almost impossible to imagine without heartache or struggles! This post is turning out to be more for me to process my thoughts than for you, so bear with me, and hopefully it will be worth your time. Why am I telling all of this background? Who lost her littl...

Against All Hope: Coincidence? I think not
http://rachellebelievinggod.blogspot.com/2014/07/coincidence-i-think-not.html
Wednesday, July 9, 2014. Yesterday I had some ground beef in the freezer I needed to use and some corn tortillas. All I could think of to make were beef enchiladas, but I needed a good recipe. I remembered 2 years ago when I did the Kelly Minter Nehemiah. Kelly Minter asks you to write what God has put on your heart to do just as He moved in Nehemiah to rebuild the wall in Jerusalem. You can see what I wrote in August/September of 2012. Pretty cool in light of what I wrote yesterday. Be Near, Mercy Reign...
