In Awe


"See if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that you will not have room enough for it." Malachi 3:10

Hi there! What in the world is going on with the Cassada's, huh? LOTS! As most of you know, we are getting ready to move into a house that we truly believe God has given to us as a gift. We are in awe of His hand in this whole process...from the timing of our house selling, to an unexpected neighbor that we already know!, to Rebekah's room already being painted purple! I really, truly feel like my heart doesn't have room to take in the blessings He's lavishing on me lately. A dear, dear friend gave me the above verse in a note about 3 years ago - it has been taped up onto my kitchen cabinet ever since...it has food splattered on it, scribbling from little hands on it...but it's still there. There have been many days that I have read it and thought, "I believe you, Lord, but I don't feel THAT today" and I couldn't really RELATE to it. Well, today, my heart is screaming that verse! I have an amazing Lord that fills me with hope and peace every day, I have a loving husband that loves me in such perfect ways, I have 3 beautiful children that are healthy and provide me so much joy, and we are on the brink of a new chapter in our life. I'm excited to see what He has for us in our new neighborhood. I'm trying to spend more time praying for our new neighbors that time spent thinking about how to arrange our furniture (although that's so fun!)

This new website doesn't seem to be able to do "slideshow's" like the other one...which is fine. I am really going to try to update it more often - with a picture or two capturing our events, but hope to also share more about what God is doing in our lives and hearts.

PS - Why did I pick that picture? Because that is what's in my heart today - peace - doesn't looking at it just want you to breath in that wonderful beach air?
