Aniela Ysabel Titone

Welcome...

ANIELA YSABEL TITONE

"Angel Consecrated to God"

7lbs 6ozs


Aniela graced this world on such a beautiful day! Despite the last h
our of labor, mommy did great! Aniela is sleeping through the night for the most part... that is if you consider 5 hours straight "sleeping through the night." Mommy and Daddy are adjusting to this "parenthood." It is quite challenging and often very hard, but always a TRUE BLESSING! God has blessed us with the most beautiful little girl we could have asked for.


Mommy is praying that God sends friends (mommy friends) for sanity. Daddy is praying God sends sanity on mommy's behalf. And Gracey is praying Aniela grows up so fast so she can eat all the yummy food that drops on the floor! There is not a day that goes by that mommy is not up looking like a person and out trying to stay busy. Mommy even started a job tutoring because she needed a nice break... but don't let these words deceive you... Every minute mommy is away from Aniela, she misses her!




Just today mommy found he
rself asking God, "why?" Sometimes it's "why me?" "Why did you bless me?" and other times it is "why?" "Why does this have to be soooooo stinkin' hard!?" The good Lord starting playing mommy a song "The Voice of Truth" by Casting Crowns. And it reminded me that there is no giant bigger than God. (i.e. there is nothing that God can't beat!) I just wanted to copy the lyrics because this is exactly how I feel each morning when I wake up and realize each day is a new challenge.



Oh what I would do to have
The kind
of faith it takes
To climb out of this boat and then
on to the crashing waves


To step out of my com
fort zone
Into the realm of the unknown where Jesus is
And He's holding out His hand

But the waves are calling out my
And they laugh at me
Reminding me of all the times
I've tried before and failed

The waves they keep on telling me
Time and time again. "Boy, you never win!"
"You never win!"



Chorus:
But the Voice of Truth tells me a different story
The Voice of Truth says, "Do
not be afraid!"
And the Voice of Truth says, "This is for My glory"

Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe the Voice of Truth

Oh what I would do to have
The kind of strength it takes

to stand before a giant
With just a sling and a stone

Surrounded by the sound of a thousand warriors
Shaking in their armor
Wishing they'd have had the strength to stand

But the giant's calling out my name
And h
e laughs at me
Reminding me of all the times
I've tried before and failed
The giant keeps on telling me
Time and time again. "Boy you'll never win!"
"You'll never win!"



Chorus:
But the Voice of Truth tells me a different story
The Voice of Truth says, "Do not be afraid!"
And the Voice of Truth says, "This is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe the Voice of Truth

But the stone was just the right size
To put the giant on the ground
And the waves they don't seem so high
On top of them lookin' down
I soar with the wings of EAGLES
When I stop and listen to the sound of Jesus
Singing over me


Chorus:
But the Voice of Truth tells me a different story
The Voice of Truth says, "Do not be afraid!"
And the Voice of Truth says, "This is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me (calling out to me)
I will choose to listen and believe-

I will choose to listen and believe the Voice of Truth

I will listen and believe
I will listen and believe the Voice of truth
I will listen and believe
Cause Jesus you are the voice of truth
And I will listen to you, you are

My Aniela is true beauty and a gift...
we will figure this out...
we will figure this out...


With Love...

Autumn-Rose
