I dont why it was, but the debating commity was in full session in my head, upon awakening this morng. thinking about all sorts of issues , as "what a mistake it was moving to N.C. , daughter likes the college here ,doesn't want to move back to Maine," on & on it was going, all of a sudden, armed with facts about the nature of the Backstabber, (he's such a wimp, he only gets u when ur not looking) I went, "I'll show u you, you sonova... , I'm calling my LAWYER !!! ". Right before my meditation the thought crossed my mind, "u kno vahn, the waters weren't calm when He came to the boat u kno ? " I looked up, there He was ready with a grin going "come over here, step into my Office" So I go to my usual
mimimimi 's again, and I watched His grin turn to a smile & the smile to laughter, I'm like "wasso funny ? " He said , "go back & talk 2 him again". Back to the Stabber, "What did ur Lawyer say- I heard some laughter " I sd "Here's the deal, I know u want my life, my soul, and whatever it is that you're after, I dont care , and it is perfectly fine with me, but lawyers cost money u know ! not having any at the moment, I left my life, my soul,and whatever it is you're after as a collaterall 4 my payment with him, soooooo you want it ? See if He gives it to you !!

So I crank the comp. go to day 12 pge. I see , in big letters, did u say hi to the Spirit t'day ? im going 'did I or did I "

Trials and tribulations will come, make no mistake. It's the attitude in which you choose to deal with them, that makes all the difference in the world. (copied from today's Path)

Exactly my friend. You said it all. I am so tired today, didn't sleep much and still a bit concerned over my daughter....but I'm happy. I've spent the majority of my morning laughing. Not letting the cares get the best of me. This is what we have to do daily vahn. Make a decision of how our day is going to be. We can choose to be happy no matter what, or we can choose to be depressed with all that comes our way. Jesus wants us to be happy.

Definitely important to greet the Holy Spirit daily. When you do, you are inviting Him to spend the day with you...and you will notice things will tend to be a little easier, no matter what comes your way.

luv ya my friend

Howdy, vahn! *hug*

Don't you love it when you are so in tune with the Holy Spirit that you hear His direction? His correction too............ugh. He knows what's best.

My resolution for today, next month, and years to come is to be further from the world and closer to the Word.

Aww in the midst of a storm hu vahn.
Keep your focus on him so you don't sink.
Don't look at the waves. Look only to him.
He won't let you drown either way.
But you will be able to walk on water if you focus on him.
*angel7* Sorrow looks back, Worry looks around, But faith looks up! Live simply, love generously, care deeply, speak kindly and trust in our Creator who loves us.
