Dreams and Dreamers

Phil and I,

we knew that we were really meant to be together because our dreams were to the T the same! and we both felt like it was God who had woven our dreams together.
In the past 8 months its been such a trial time with everything that happened, with all the trials we have had to face, with all OUR plans changed we find that our dream is the one thing we still need to protect and go after. Be ready for something to change Canada!

I want to give an encouragement to those who have dreams...dream big....just because it may seem to huge to ever accomplish it does not mean that you can't reach them! The thing about dreams is that you have to be totally and completely dependent on God. His timing, His way. Why would you have it any other way? because if He is God, HE WILL MAKE IT PERFECT.
Don't be discouraged just because your dream does not happen instantly! Don't give up on the things God has placed in your heart, those things are the most important things that should push us to move forward and thrive to see what God has in store.

I realized that the one thing I love doing and seeing is helping people get their dreams accomplished. Because I know there is just such a peace when you have accomplished something God has asked of you, something that is birthed in your heart.

Go after your Dreams and do not let anything tear them down.

Shhh.. it's Phil

Hey... This is the Husband reporting in for a quick blog...

You know those people that think they are so intelligent and they flaunt it all over. They think they can out wit you, but their mouth is quicker than their mind? Too many people forget that people skills is in the dealing with people, not making them look less smart. When an individual like that comes around I tend not to say much because I don't want to make them feel stupid... opps... I mean I employ my people skills... relating to them and talking at an understandable level of speech. Please, whoever you are that thinks you are God's gift to modern humanity... chill out!

God Reads My Blog

so I suggest that you read my previous blog, because there I am writing away thinking "God I really need you to come through, I'm being patient but...seriously I need you to come through" and BAM! God reads my Blog and provides me with an interview then literally 5 minutes later I got a Job!...Hello? Is that not amazing?! come on now!! my God totally knows what I need and here is the best part it is not any job....it is a job in which I need experience in..COFFEE!!! for those of you who actually know me, and know what I want to do for Jesus, you actually know why I am stoked about this!! needless to say, my husband and I are doing a party dance...cause now things are rolling..on a slight pause but rolling slowly I had to share...cause honestly..that is not my doing IT IS ALL JESUS! Jesus knows..seriously.

PA

Pause

Well hello there Blog,
how are you doing? abandoned? I know. Well Phil and I are doing great...my sweet husband works a ton and me...looking for jobs and school a ton. so really? Life right now is on a Pause, to be truthful while it is a pause I'm realizing that once again (except this time as a married couple) we are learning how to wait... and oh the joy of waiting...NOT! sometimes its really hard..and that is the reality but all I know is that when we wait patiently and just enjoy where God is taking us now He will reward us in the end. so for now all I know is that God is about to reward us in some big way, he is about to teach us something huge and The Alexandre's are saying "bring it on" ....
simple. yet satisfying...

Every Season. Change.

This video is a representation of my life...the song is written & sung by Nicole Nordeman called every season.

its been a hard and joyful year for me and I feel like
God is truly recreating me in these different seasons of life.
There was dead seasons just like winter
where I felt alone, but I found God in those alone times.
There was alive seasons just like summer
feeling the joy of friends and family and God helping me
and just like fall I felt like God was just preparing me to change...
and just like spring all things are new. and I know in my heart daily I am being restored ...
Many of you know that I have been in a new journey,
just recently got married, had a set job that ended up not working out due to government and now in a whole new plan that I know God will bless...and then I still have school...
and just to let everyone know
I'm focused.
I have a goal and I will reach it.
and just as God is changing me, recreating me, restoring me...I found myself growing in His love and His strength.
be assured that this girl is NOT giving up...I am NOT a quitter...and that which God has created me to do I will do! if that means finish school..I will! if that means planting a church I will!...if that means making more songs to praise the Lord...I will! just wait...out of this individual will arise Gods call. out of this couple...we will serve the Lord...

Updates...

Okay so alot has happened in the past weeks...
Phil finally crossed the border and got all our stuff including our precious dog Edmund Bishop Long (Eddie) and he had no trouble really...
But besides that, its just been school work and celebrating birthdays, and cooking and cleaning up.
In two days it will be one more birthday to celebrate, PHIL!!!!...woohoo!...
and well...in the past few weeks upcoming to this one,
I have seen that God has truly blessed us and is continuing to do so.
I also have seen that in the months that have passed us by so many curb balls have come our way, so many things that could have taken our joy away and yet we haven't (Praise God) but mainly we have still had our joy...and I can honestly say that is for two reasons 1. because God is faithful, and when you come to that realization you trust that you know He'll pull through NO MATTER WHAT 2. There is Love and Support in the air. okay laugh if you want I know that sounds kind of cheesy, but seriously. Phil and I are so in love with each other that all these curb balls can hit us and it wont effect our love for each other or our strength to try something else....and then we have friends and families like you who are praying for us, helping us and supporting us with whatever we choose to do. So with that being said.

When curb balls come your way. Trust and Know that God is going to pull through.
He is way too faithful to leave you hanging.Seriously.

Peace,
The woman-Alexandre

Wife.

Well,
This week my word was Domestic. I have really noticed that I'm getting into the hang of being a "domestic wife" I saw the definition : "devoted to home life or household affairs" dictionary.com and I loved it! I was like yes, I am devoted to my home and my household affairs! and I know people are probably thinking ....well your a newlywed but 10 years from now your going to be so tired of doing laundry, cleaning and cooking...well I hope not, because when I look at that definition- I want to be that wife that is devoted to her home.

Proverbs 31:27 27 She watches over the affairs of her household
and does not eat the bread of idleness."
Domestic I want to be. Domestic I am.
the Mrs.Alexandre
