So for those of you who know me, know that I love paula Dean and of course her recipes.   While I may never be as good of a cook  as she is, I vow to be the best Mrs. Cook that I can possibly be!  

Life has proven to be full of changes for me.   While I am one to embrace change, some have been harder to deal with than others.  Career changes, church changes, changes in the family dynamic, new home, etc...The list goes on and on.   One thing that has remained my source of strength is my Faith in God.   He promised to never leave me nor forsake me and even when I pulled away, He was always there!!  

One month ago I married the man of my dreams, David Cook.   A man who accepts me for who I am, failures and all!  We are looking forward to what God has in store for us as a married couple and know that He will us to impact many!   We heard a message last night (thank you Crossroads church for hosting Youthquest) and the main point was God has you right where you are for a reason!!   It amazes me how He can use one little phrase to impact you in a major way...I know I went through the things in my past because God had a plan!   While I may not understand it now, I know that one day it will be revealed in a mighty way.  
So, as the changes continue to take place in our lives, we will remember that God has us right where we are for a reason... What a comforting thought!
