There are times in my life when things seem to roll along and the road is clear of potholes and detours. Other times the path is bumpy and hard to navigate. I am thankful that right now the road seems smooth. Things are going well, Rog and I are getting along better than we ever have. You'd think as long as we've been married things should be easy for us, but it hasn't always been that way. We've worked hard at our marriage. I credit God for what we have now. Things have improved so much since we joined the church and asked for His help. We pray for our marriage now. We pray for each other.
Miranda and Chris are happy and she is doing so good after her surgery. Chris is a wonderful son-in-law, always ready to lend a hand. He is just a good guy.
I feel peace and happiness in my life. I am grateful for it. There was a time a few years ago when I thought our marriage was over. I just didn't see how we were ever going to fix things. I wanted Rog to change, to make me happy, to figure out how to solve all our problems. I thought he was the reason I wasn't happy. I was wrong. We had our share of problems together there's no question, but I finally learned that I was the one who needed to change. I needed to change the way I was thinking. I realized what I was looking for for a very long time was God.
I started to grow. I looked for a long time to find a church that felt right. I never expected in a million years it would be the catholic church. I spent 9 months going to class and learning about God, my relationship with Him and learning about the church. It was a time in my life I used just for me. After I joined the church Rog started going to mass with me. That fall he decided to go through the class. I went again too, as a sponsor for a dear friend this time. I am going again this year as a sponsor.
It hasn't been easy for my family or Rog's that we converted. We changed our views on many things. We changed our lives in many ways. We stopped going out and partying and drinking every weekend, just because we felt better when we didn't and it felt right for us. We go to mass every Saturday night. But they see how much happier we are and they are glad for us.
So I've learned a lot and grown a lot and I'm glad to be on a smooth road again. Thankful. Happy.
Ending with a quote again.

"If you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you would say to this mulberry tree,'Be uprooted and planted in the sea,' and it would obey you" Jesus Christ
