Amen...sometimes we have to endure one particular endless trial in this walk of life....but God does have a purpose...and one that He will reveal to us in His timing.

luv ya

Signed the offer letter for my new position I can't even begin to express how grateful I am for God's faithfulness even as I struggle. Will finish the paperwork tomorrow after working through the night. Many appointments for tomorrow. I will be very very busy. But that's okay. I miss my friends, the support, and some of my friends there go to my church which is only 5-7 minutes drive away from the new job (old job) .

Putting down boundaries as best as I can and still staying accountable for my actions.

and I almost forgot . . .

church was good on Sunday. the sermon was about going with Jesus. and staying with the body of Christ even when the days and circumstances are hard.

for my brain it was just another way of teaching how to love. it was good.

Sweet! I just love going to church don't you? And the fact that your job and church are close to one another...makes this rehire all the more fantastic.

May your heart continue to glow with the love of the Lord dwelling within.

luv ya

Standing strong in the Lord's Promise...the potential for setbacks is always there...it's His strength in us that makes us persevere.

Signed up for a 5K run/walk today. A bit nervous but glad I did it. I need something productive for me. Something that will enhance my life and not take away from it.

I miss being outdoors and staying physically fit. I need the energy to keep up with the kids and it will also help with my emotional endurance as well. So, I'm going to go for it.

Now if I can just find the proper supplements to help my body recover on the rest days. I know the Lord will help me. He sent me the exercise schedule for free. I found it online. I don't have to pay to work out with others for now. I am very grateful. Praise the Lord.

My prayers are with you as you venture out on this new endeavor. Sounds like it will be fun.

luv ya

[Whisperingsprings]

thanks mlg. yes, i think it will be both fun and healthy. good for me and hopefully, i will get the kids involved as well. looks like we have alot of weight to lose and what not. besides, it's hard to do fun things when my body is too big for my bones. it makes my joints hurt. so hey, i gotta plan

workplace violence. i've been thinking about the workplace violence going on where i will soon be leaving. hmmmm, why is there so much emotional abuse out there? not good at all. why are people so condescending etc.? it's very sad. no wonder the kids who are bullied chose to commit suicide. whether heterosexual, homosexual, developmentally delayed or genius iq; whether black or white skin: whether beautiful and comely or less comely, we really need to be careful how we treat one another. emotional abuse and quick words are dangerous. i think i've been doing some of that myself. i too am guilty. it's sad. now i am more aware though.

something to talk to the therapist about. something to journal about. something to ponder and meditate about up against the Bible. no love is in those behaviors. now to break the behaviors . . . .

Amen it's so awesome when we can recognize through the Lord's help places to have Him change us to be more Christ like.

Psalms 51:10
Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.

luv ya sis
