God is good and gets gooder every day

So I survived Christmas! No one got poisoned, choked or puked. I'd say my first Christmas dinner was a success. Actually it was more than a success it was great!


So I was going to post a triumphant New Years Day blog full of things like, this is the year, bla bla bla. Thought that was a bit ridiculous as I am rubbish with resolutions and I would have failed them all by the time the week was out. So here we are the 11 January, Happy New Year! I am now trying to work out what 2012 will involve where it will take me and where it will take my family.
So as I look back at 2011 I still stand amazed at what has happened in my life over the last 12 months. This time last year I was heading for divorce, my 10 year marriage ended in 2010. My children travelled back and forth from mummy to daddy's .  I look back to my journal (before I had a blog) and I read things like, turnaround, testimony, miracles, restoration. I read sentences such as 'By the end of 2011 God is going to give you a testimony you are going to have to throw your hands up in the air and say only God could have done it.' 
God spoke to me so clearly on 1st January 2011 and he gave me another chance, he said give me a year. He told me he was going to bring restoration. Here I am am at the start of 2012 having listened to that still small voice and here I am throwing my hands in the air and saying Only God could have done it...and most importantly here I am going into my 13th year of marriage to the father of my two beautiful children! 


ah its clichéd but its true, as my dear Father says  God is good and gets gooder every day! 


PS my New Years resolution was to keep my blog updated....first post of 2012 on the 11 Jan, mm failed that one then ;-)
