| Well, I am back into the blogging world. Computers really aren’t the most reliable things, even the newest of them! Mine died on me over a month ago and I just got it back. I have missed blogging, but I think the Lord knew that there would be things in my life that would need full attention, with no distractions. The past month has been a time of prayer and really bringing my focus and trust upon the Lord. Sometimes that is so much easier to write into words than it is to really do it, isn’t it? Sometimes it is just pure discipline to do so and that is how it has been for me of late. Each day I am having to make a firm decision to trust in the Lord with situations that arise in our lives. He is ever so faithful and patient with us!
I only have a moment to write just now. My house is a mess and the kids are pretty sick with this junk going around. I need to try to gather up some energy, get the house in order, bathe my kiddos and get them tucked into fresh, cozy linens early tonight. I promise I will be back soon. Thank you to those who have kept me in your thoughts and for the sweet comments left!
I will leave you with some thoughts I wrote earlier this week. Blessings!
A couple of days ago Joshua, now three years old, came to me and said, “Mama, I want to go home”. Being wrapped up in the normal busyness of my day, I patted him on the head gently and replied, “Honey, you are home”, to which he replied, “No, my home is with God.” It is just like God to use a child to bring us to our knees. I have been so tired and so weary of late and God used my little boy to remind me that this is all fleeting. It isn’t my real home. One day the work will be through and I will be with him in glory forever!! It gives me a new energy to refocus and gain back that vision. The Word of God says those without a vision will parish. How easily we can begin to wither away inside when we lose sight of THE vision...our TRUE future in Christ!
