My cup overflows...

Sorry for the delay in postings....life has truly been crazy, but in the best way possible. We have been studying, working, playing and spending nights in the ER. I apologize for my lack of keeping up with the blog...but it is Sunday and a day to reflect on things I am thankful for in the last week. So, here are some reasons that my cup overflows because of God's blessing this past week....

  • My cup overflows from a clean bill of health. We did have a ER visit from a terrible, first migraine of my life. I know to much from school, as Ryan says, and was sure I had a brain-bleed. So, off to the ER to get scanned we went at 10:30 at night. Everything is okay, PTL! (praise the Lord, for those who don't know my abbreviation)
  • My cup overflows for a wonderful family. We spent some time with my in-laws and my family this past weekend and it was truly glorious. How precious when a family truly loves and cares for one another in the most special way.
  • My cup overflows that it is my nephew, Acie's, 4th birthday today. I am so thankful for 6 sweet, precious nieces and nephews that make me smile and make my heart happy.
  • My cup overflows that this is the last week of rotation 7 coming up. Only 2 more rotations left before I am a PA graduate!
  • My cup overflows because of the GRACE of God this week. How wonderful that I can never do enough to earn or take away from the love that God has for me. What a gift!
I am sure your cup is overflowing and full as well. Praise the One who gives all good and precious gifts! Hope you all have a wonderful week ahead!

    Oh, no, Anna! A migraine?! Bless your heart! I hope you never have one again...they're TERRIBLE! You're not alone in thinking it's a brain bleed...i've thought aneurysm, CVA, tumor, etc.

10 things...

I am such a copy-cat today, but I love this idea! My favorite, Beth Moore, started this on her blog,  and then I noticed my girls, Alyssa and Kathyrn did it on their blogs too. I am learning so many new things about people and, naturally, I need to do it now! Here are the directions: What are 10 things - right off the top of your head - that we would only know about you if we knew you really well? 10 random things ranging anywhere on your personal map that make you a tad distinctive? Or just plain weird? Think quickly. Don't go for deep. Go for quirky. Don't try to put them in any kind of order and don't make them long. Just start typing. Since this is the Reese blog, I will attempt to do it for both of Ryan and myself.... Anna: 1. I hate to shave. Freshman year of college, I only shaved once a week and my friends and people I worked with tried to straighten me out with weekly "armpit checks"...sick, but true. 2. I love zits, abscesses, blood blisters---an...

Miracle!!

Ryan and I are so so thankful and excited to make the announcement that we are having a baby! Right now, I have just finished up the first trimester. The baby is almost 15 weeks old. We actually get to find out the gender in a couple of weeks, which is so exciting! It has been such a wonderful time. The Lord has truly blessed us with this miracle. Through this process, the thing that I have been thinking the most of in my heart is that the Lord is good. I don't know why this truth is sometimes hard for me to soak in. Life is hard and trials happen- this is so true and the trials do not make God any less good. However, sometimes, the Lord just gives to His children. I find it so crazy that I am resistant to believe this at times, but I always look at the toughest or hardest outcome in a situation and assume that it will happen. However, through this, I have been reminded that although the Lord allows hard things to happen at times to shape and define us, He does good things a...

Praises!!!!

I found out this morning that I passed the board exam! I am beyond thankful for this blessing. All the time I was studying I was in a cloud of doubt...wondering if the PA profession was right for me, what would I do if I failed, how was I ever going to get through it? But, this process brought me to my knees in new ways. I prayed each day for His strength to bring His work to completion. This was the verse that I would repeat throughout the days of studying and it is so special to me: "You give me your shield of victory, and your right hand sustains me; you stoop down to make me great." -Psalm 18:35 The Lord answers prayer. This small prayer about helping give me success with the boards to bigger prayers about salvation for our loved ones and healing for those who are sick. We serve a God who hears us....HOW AMAZING!! He stoops down to uphold us in His right hand. Trust in Him today, friends. He IS surely big enough for anything you can lay at His feet. He hears you an...
