Tashy...

By LindseyMarie - May 31, 2010

Natasia Lukiewski May 21, 1987- April 17, 2010 RIP beautiful girl. You are truly missed. Your smile could always brighten even the darkest day and your love of life was inspiring. Its so sad to see someone so young and beautiful and full of life be taken so early. God did some amazing things through tashy and he is continuing to work through her death. Remember...that each day is a gift. Understand...that this life is not about us. This life is about bringing glory to God. See... how God blesses you each and every day. and Know...that the God of the Universe has a plan specifically for your life...if you'll just let him have it. He loves You...He has a plan...and its a good plan. " This is my temporary home It's not where I belong. Windows and rooms that I'm passi' through. This is just another stop, on the way to where I'm going. I'm not afraid because I know this is my Temporary Home."

Here it is, my heart...

Doing the math, I must have written that note about two years ago. I grew up in church. I knew I was supposed to trust God and I knew he was my savior, but what did trusting God REALLY mean? How was that supposed to manifest itself in my life? Little did I know, that God was about to answer that question in a big way. There has never been a time in my life where I did not want kids. I had so many dolls as a child and constantly practiced being "mommy." I remember when my first nephew, Sam, was born. Suddenly, there was a kid that I was related to and I just could not get enough of him. Seeing him figure out the world and learn the Truth...

Here's my heart... Part 2

By Lindsey Antioho - January 23, 2019

As the ball dropped to close out 2018 and usher in a new year, I stood in a room full of people with my face buried in my husband’s chest sobbing tears that had been triggered by the tiniest detail…. The glass of champagne in my hand was supposed to be Martinelli’s. I wasn’t supposed to be able to drink champagne. Somehow, that glass of champagne flooded me with the memory from December 7, just a few weeks earlier. In a matter of seconds on that day, 2018 turned from the best year ever to the worst. As you know from my previous blog post, “Here it is…. My heart,” God spent the very beginning of 2018 asking me on a boat on the Sea of Galilee if I wanted my best for us or His best for us. Upon responding that I wanted His best for us, He spent the rest of 2018 reshaping my definition of good to be more aligned with His definition of good. He continuously showed me how to trust that his definition of good was infinitely better than mine. I know he did some seriously trans...
