i really am going to try and blog more!

my focus these days is to teach the girls about knowing jesus personally and to give them their own experiences with the presence of god. they are in god's presence a lot...but not always actively. i got my hands on an awesome teaching about raising prophetic children and it has challenged me!
i had been talking to the girls (more alexa) about the holy spirit and speaking in tongues. andre and i prayed for the girls to receive the gift of tongues but nothing really happened with it. so i just continued explaining it and talking about it and doing it for them to see.
one afternoon while the kids were napping i heard screaming so i ran upstairs and i heard the most incredible thing...alexa was speaking in tongues at the top of her lungs and worshipping. she was so excited and the best part was that i had nothing to do with it! jossy didn't quite have the same experience and i am not sure when it started but she also has a prayer language. cool, huh?
so, i am constantly asking god for ways to teach them to hear the voice of god and respond. we have had a few incredible and some really funny stories about god speaking to them that i'll share another day.
