its been a while

I know i know i havent bloged in over two months!!!! i have been crazy busy with work, school, my wifely duties, being on crutches,getting ready for the holidays and buying our first home:) anyway im back and ready to catch up!! Life in the Jariwala home has been crazy... after much drama and many tears we have Finally found our home! Its been a long and interesting process but as of january 14th (or before) we will be home owners!!! I couldnt be more excited and terrified at the same time. This is the house i have always wanted it has everything i asked for and more and it is beautiful:) So now starts the obsessive cleaning, painting, figuring out where to put things, buying all the crap we still need and ripping up of some nasty carpet!! It will be stressful but wonderful....and you all will be getting frantic phone calls to come help(seriously). Life is good. i was sitting here tonight thinking of how amazingly blessed my life is and how God has given me everything i have ever wanted. I stand amazed at how beautiful He makes life. Whenever i get worried or stressed i just think of where i have come from and what my life is now and how God can take ANY situation and make it something amazing. Today has been one of those days where you just wake up in awe of Jesus and everything he has done and is doing in your life hits you at once and its a little overwhelming. I love those days:) We should have that day everyday but sometimes with the maddness around i let that feeling get away from me a little and then my days are not as joyful or warm..... I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas ! Well this is getting long so im done:) ...be back in a few months....just kidding

My husband is amazing:)

For all of you who dont already know Shay Jariwala is the most amazing man alive! ok sorry but this is about to get a little mushy:) I was just thinking about how thankful i am that God has blessed me with such a wounderful man to be married to. I am so glad that God has a plan for our lives and that as long as we put him first He will show us the right way to go. I was thinking about where My life was a little over a year ago, I was not in Gods will thats for sure! So many times I made choices based on what I felt or what I wanted, not even thinking about what God wanted for my future. I was selfish and stupid! Thankfully God's plan is always bigger and better than mine could ever be. It took awhile but finally the light in my hollow head went off and now I know I am living in Gods will. I couldnt be happier with everything the Lord has blessed me with, an amazing husband who makes me feel like a queen, a great job(stressful but great) a wounderful church family, and the best friends and family a girl could ask for. All i had to do was turn to Him and place my life in His hands and in a matter of days my life and heart were changed for the better:) You cant understand grace and love until you experience it from Jesus its AMAZING, BEAUTIFUL and NEVER ENDING. God has givin me a passion to share his love and mercy with young women who were in the same confusing place in thier lives as i was a year and a half ago. When i see people making the same mistakes i made i want to grab them and scream........STOPPPPPPPPP....turn to JESSSSSUSSSS and it will better:) ok well anyway i have to go to class just wanted to shay Jesus is the man and i love you shay:) Thanks for loving me when im unlovable and being the bestest husband in the whole world! sorry this was all over the place!

GRACE

As I am sitting here flipping through my bible I keep comming back to the same word GRACE. I have been thinkning about how blessed I am to have recieved Gods grace over and over again in my life. The bible definds grace as "the undeserved forgiveness,kindness and mercy that God gives us" Personaly the idea of Gods grace blows my mind!. I cant seem to wrap my little mind around the idea:) I am amazed by how freely He gives his grace to us and how undeserving of it we are. One of my favorite bible verses is 2 Corinthians 12:9 But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me.That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong." Its very encouraging for me to know that even when I am dealing with not so fun things, God is in it with me and in those hard times is when i have learned the most about myself , life and about Him.
