I have many things on my heart today - I don't even know how to articulate them all. I feel a bit weary, a bit uncertain about our future, and a bit lonely. Some things are coming to an end here -- school, my daughter Anna's senior year (and then graduation), our Perspectives class -- and I feel a bit of loss and letdown. Could you pray for me/us? For direction, joy in the journey, patience (!), and peace? Thank you friends.....
I just spent some time praying for you my friend.
I actually thought of you today as I downloaded Sovereign Grace's new cd Come Weary Saints on to my iPod. Oh Julie it is so beautiful. It would be a great encouragement to you.
David and I listened to it tonight and agree that our church will soon be singing many of the new songs.
I'll continue to pray for you to feel God's presence during your times of loneliness.
Hugs,
Julie D.
I have already lifted you up in prayer this morning, and will continue to do so. May the Lord wash over you this day, filling you with joy and peace, calmness of mind and spirit. I pray He gives you direction and wisdom to choose actitivities and ways to spend you time and energy. May He feel any void and sadness you feel at your daughter leaving for Africa and bring peace and joy as another moves back in for a time. I pray He keeps time with Him urgent in your spirit that not a day goes by that His Word is missed.
I can very much relate to where you are. In this post and the last one~I'm right there with you. So much busyness~it is quite constant between now and the end of Aug. So many changes~the biggest being our first (child-not first born) leaving home this fall. So much stuff to take care of between now and then. It is so imperative that we stay plugged in and covered in prayer. Thank you for sharing your struggles with us!!
