The times that Glenn and I had been able to be alone (after having kids) were always few and far between. Honestly, it's been that way since we adopted Cala... in Russia though, we eventually did have someone who could take care of Cala and we were able to get out weekly. That was so nice! It hasn't been that way since.Since moving to Minnesota (and now having three kids), we have gone months before without ever going out alone. It's nice though now to have that chance one to two times a month. Our kids all go to a group night at the attachment center. Cala and Ethan are in therapy there for various reasons (they deal especially with adopted kids and have seen many with Ethan's ailments)... anyway, on group night, even Seth gets to join in! That leaves Glenn and me 3 whole hours alone. It's too far to come back home, and so we eat out and then head to Target or somewhere to kill the time.
Tonight, we went to eat at Chili's and then to Target. It was a great time! I am blessed with a wonderful husband, with someone I WANT to spend time with :o)

The passage today is a little different. But the way I look at it, life itself is a battle and the Lord doesn't change. He was with the Israelites as they headed into the Promised Land, and He's with you, helping you and giving you strength to face whatever lies ahead. Always here praying!
Deuteronomy 20:1-4: When thou goest out to battle against thine enemies, and seest horses, and chariots, and a people more than thou, be not afraid of them: for the LORD thy God is with thee, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt. And it shall be, when ye are come nigh unto the battle, that the priest shall approach and speak unto the people, And shall say unto them, Hear, O Israel, ye approach this day unto battle against your enemies: let not your hearts faint, fear not, and do not tremble, neither be ye terrified because of them; For the LORD your God is he that goeth with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you.
