A brief update:
The LORD as we all know, but have such a hard time believing, is faithful! The LORD has been gracious to us this new year in new ways and we have given him new praise! Psalm 34 was a haven for me in my overwhelmed state and is now a haven in my peaceful state.
Our time in Grand Marias was sweet. It is so good to be with family for extended periods of time. Garry and Renee were really sweet to us, and of course Corban loved all the time with his Papa Duck!
I have been working on a bathroom remodel for some friends of ours and it has been going really well! Thank you for the prayers. I sold the van!!! - praise the LORD this was such a big burden on me. We are making a lot of progress on the company, and really enjoying what the LORD has brought our way so far concerning work.
We are expecting our new baby mid February, for me the butterflys are starting to flutter - I don't feel ready!
I feel a fresh energy now that I'm back to work and have direction. We continue to seek the LORD in all things knowing that he is faithful to lead us.
Thankful for you all. I will post pictures soon. I feel like I have a lot of catch up to do with all that's been going on.

A prayer request
Hello,
We are spending the week up in Grand Marais for a time of prayer and planning. Many of you know, mid October I was laid off. Unfortunately Piper Construction had only enough work to keep one person busy. I have been staying busy where I can, and the Lord has been faithful.
With much prayer and consultation, I decided to start a business! It's called "Phil Carlson Custom Wood Craft." I am registered with the state and have been working on logos and websites and all the other 100 things I have to think about during this time. In the next couple days here I will be hopefully be launching the website, I will send you a link when it's ready.
Please pray:
that I would be wise with my time up here. That I would devote much time to prayer and fasting, as well as getting on the computer and making things happen.
that I would get a clear vision and mission for the company, and that the Lord would use us to serve people. Pray that the Lord would lead us to the people who need our help.
that I would have peace. I have been very overwhelmed and worried lately, and that's not what the Lord wants for me. Pray I would trust the Lord, and lean on him in all things and that he would continue to be perfectly faithful in our lives.
that the van would be sold. I just listed a van on craigslist and I would very much like it to sell, its a big burden on me right now.
that our other vehicles would make it through the winter with out any major repairs.
that the bathroom remodel I'm starting on Jan 4th would go smooth and I would be prepared.
This scripture has been very sweet and prophet to me lately. Please also pray this text over me.
"Wait for the LORD; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the LORD!" Psalm 27:14
Thank you so much!
