But it is great that we are all happy with who we are and the blessings that God has already given us. Jesus said: you have not, because you ask not. Also remember your faith must be accompanied by your works, otherwise is dead.

Nikriv04 I share with you the importance of thanking God for waking up to a brand new day, for what he has already done in our lives and for what he will do. He has a special plan designed for each and everyone of us and I trust that he will lead us into this path. I thank God for giving his one and only son, Jesus Christ, to die for my sins and thus giving me eternal life. This life is not our real home, we are just passing by but God is faithful in all and I thank him for the hope he puts in all of us here today. I know the winner has not been notified yet because God is never early or late, he is always on time. Have a blessed day everyone, embrace your hope and never give up.

Sunshine is bright and is chilly but is the perfect day for an ambush! ;) Wed, 6 Mar 2013 15:44:53 +0000 http://blog.hgtv.com/sweepstakes/2013/03/04/a-special-message-from-monica-pedersen/#IDComment587205486 http://blog.hgtv.com/sweepstakes/2013/03/04/a-special-message-from-monica-pedersen/#IDComment587204325 So whatever the Lord's will is will be and I am happy no matter what because I am alive today and healthy. I heard a song this morning, not sure what the title was but it said " we live, we love, we forgive and never give up cuz the days we are given are a gift from above and today we remember to give and to love." truly inspiring and encouraging.

It actually happened out of nowhere, I was just cooking in my kitchen after a hard day at work and taking care of the kids and the HGTV channel was on in my living room and Monica was showing the dream home. I saw it and thought, wow that is a beautiful place, but I knew that with my busy schedule I would never seem to have to time to keep up with entering daily. So I let it go. But then somehow everyday it would come up to my mind as a reminder and it was weird. I gave birth 6 months ago so my memory is still under recovery process,lol. Any way then I said, Lord if this is for me, then I will enter daily and do the humanly possible so that you can do the impossible.

I am curious and would like to see how it all takes place. I got everything ready to celebrate when they come and knock on my door. :) Wed, 6 Mar 2013 14:54:12 +0000 http://blog.hgtv.com/sweepstakes/2013/03/04/a-special-message-from-monica-pedersen/#IDComment587165927 http://blog.hgtv.com/sweepstakes/2013/03/04/a-special-message-from-monica-pedersen/#IDComment586215418 Whoever wins, I pray that he/she uses the blessing to be a blessing to others, There is more joy in giving then in receiving, plus the grand prize is very generous. I already got it all figured out. lol Tue, 5 Mar 2013 18:11:45 +0000 http://blog.hgtv.com/sweepstakes/2013/03/04/a-special-message-from-monica-pedersen/#IDComment586215418 http://blog.hgtv.com/sweepstakes/2013/03/04/a-special-message-from-monica-pedersen/#IDComment586180341 Hello Habanera, thank you so much for welcoming me to the blog.

This is my first one :) Congratulations Monica and hubby. God has a unique purpose for your new bundle of joy. Based on Monica's comment I am confident that the winner is from North Carolina. What other state can have more kind and generous people than the homeland of the Billy Graham. Charlotte is a blessed city.
