Troy’s thoughts on life right now

Posted by Troy On August - 13 - 2009

There is so much I need to get out right now.  My frustrations with my parents (mostly my mom since my dad is leaving me alone).  My absolute beaming pride that Owen started school so well.  My joy that indeed through best times and worst times we have made it nine years in our marriage.  My joy and strength I find in the Lord and the amazingness of how He has and continues to work.  My worry about Amber’s brain condition, what will the outcome be, what is that path?  My concerns that Kyleigh’s issues aren’t “over” (over with her is a relative everchanging term).  My quandary that Owen is socially a 3rd grader, science stuff a 2nd grader, and reading and writing a kindergartner.  My love of that food place in Palomar, BHG is the bag, Malone’s that is it.  My excitement that I got a Hoops & yoyo card!!!  My total amazement and God moment at James & Randa’s wedding that I am dying to post about, but need to download the cards first… or wait on Amber to ;)   My nervousness over the plans for our financial situation.  I know it is a roller coaster and a God roller coaster and at the end we are going to say that was awesome ride, but I know it’s a ride to teach us and grow us, and to prevent us and any of our offspring to EVER get in the situation we have found ourselves.

Above all that I am thankful.  Thankful of where my life is, what God has done in me and around me.  Thankful for everyone that helped my wife, my family, and me through the darkest time of our lives.  Thankful for those that prayed and fasted and know that there is never anything I can do that would repay them, but that they have laid up some treasures in Heaven by doing so.  Thankful that Kyleigh is still alive.  Thankful that we have found Amber’s condition before it worsened.  Thankful that we aren’t going to lose our house.  Thankful I have an awesome God van that no one can repossess.  Thankful I have an amazing awesome wonderful wife who made a commitment nine years ago and honored that commitment and continues to do so until death do us part.  Thankful that I have re-prioritized my life into what really matters.  That I have shed my material yearnings and human nature in that respect.  Thankful that I value looks good and works in a whole new way.

This won’t be my last post and hopefully I can keep up some regular posting and you can get all sides of our family in one concise spot.  I cannot wait until Owen can start posting his thoughts on here as well.  Ended kinda abruptly, but more to come soon.

    Kind of appropriate that I get to be the first comment. Amazing to see where we ARE vs where we’ve been… now just imagine where we WILL be! I am glad you are blogging (for the public now) because it really is amazing to me to see the changes in you. I stand in awe of a God who heals and rescues and restores us ALL!!!

    Thanks for posting your thoughts and feelings. I’m glad you’ve found strength in the infinite source of strength that we can draw from, our Heavenly Father. I’m glad you have such a strong wife! And the beautiful thing is that she not only will be with you “till death do [you] part,” but you can be together forever!

    If there is ever any thing we can do to help, do not hesitant to call us!
