OH THE MIND OF A CHILD

A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales.

The teacher said it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even though it was a very large mammal its throat was very small.

The little girl stated that Jonah was swallowed by a whale.

Irritated, the teacher reiterated that a whale could not swallow a human; it was physically impossible.

The little girl said, 'When I get to heaven I will ask Jonah'.

The teacher asked, 'What if Jonah went to hell?'

The little girl replied, 'Then you ask him'.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Our Holiday season was great!  We went to South Dakota and then to Wisconsin to visit both our families.  It was wonderful to see friends and family over Christmas.  We are now in the process of getting our summer tour lined up which seems to book up extremely fast.  Baby Xavier is doing marvelous and we are still getting things done around the house before he arrives in March:) Mostly everybody knows who and what baby is by now so yes, it's alright to use his first name:)  Eric has been working on the new and improved No One Underground website which is coming soon so check it out!  It's still no1underground.com.  Also, The Silent Fight Volume II is due to be printed soon so those of you waiting for it, it's coming:)  Hope everyone had a beautiful Holiday!!!   

Faith

I did some reading today in 1 Peter which was exactly what I needed.  The past few months my faith has grown tremendously and my connection with God has sky rocketed.  I began to think about my family and loved ones and how I long for each and every one of them to experience this kind of faith.  I realize everyone is different and at different levels in their own lives when it comes to faith but I can't help but long for others to truly experience it as I have.  When you walk in faith and take your life one day at a time just know that the enemy will try and stomp on your dreams.  The enemy will try and squander your faith because that is what he does best and he does not want us to be close to God.  We cannot see God as Moses once did and we cannot walk with Him as Peter once did, but we can have faith that He is who He is and He has been here all along.

1 Peter 1:8-9, "Though you have not seen Him, you love Him; and even though you do not see Him now, you believe in Him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls."

Baby news:)

Went to a check up today and baby is doing awesome!!  We are at 25 weeks and all is terrific!  Eric and I have 1 more ultrasound coming up before Christmas.  I am sending out baby announcements in the next few weeks which will reveal top secret baby information.  So for those of you that do not want to know if baby is a boy or a girl, don't open it:)  Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving:)

Volume II

I have had a few people ask about my books and I am pleased to say that Volume II of The Silent Fight is finished.  However, we need to print it.  I will keep everyone updated on that and just to let everyone know you can pre-order it.  

Baby Baby:)

Well, it's official we're having a ..........................BABY:)  Thought I was going to tell didn't you:)  Actually, there are certain family members (I won't name any names...Mom, Paula)  that don't wanna know if baby is a boy or girl so I can't say just yet, I guess they want to be surprised:) Anyways, we are 21 weeks, baby and I are spectacular!  I am in the process of getting the nursery ready:)  Until next time........

New Baby News:)

We are 18 weeks today!!!  Everything is going great and we have our 2nd ultrasound on Oct. 28th, 2008.  At that time we will meet Baby Girl Timm or possibly Baby Boy Timm:)  I am counting down the days, we can barely wait!  Thanks you to those of you who are praying for us, we truly appreciate it!  Stay tuned...... 

Trust

Do you trust God?  Do you trust Him with this present day?  Do you place your future in His hands?  I believe He wants His creation to take life one day at a time and to trust Him even when things are upside-down.  It's hard, I know because I've done it and I will continue to live this way.  I think one thing we need to remember is that what seems to be upside-down to us, may not be upside-down to Him.  He sets crooked paths straight and redeems those that love Him.  Trust Him, He knows what He is doing.

Psalms 28:7 "The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him, and I am helped."

Baby Update

On September 16th, 2008 we had our first ultrasound!  It was amazing to see our little baby moving around in there!  Not sure of the gender as of yet but we will find out at 20 weeks:)  The more we can be prepared the better for our little person:)  The doctor says that everything is healthy and going great; this is just what we have been praying for.  Thank you Lord!  Also, the heartbeat was strong and the most surreal experience of our lives.  We knew we were pregnant, but on the 16th of September it all became REAL!  We are grateful!
