Graceful Journey

Hiatus - Nov. 30, 2005

I am going to take an online fast.  Waves of depression are still rolling over me and I have found that I am starting to try and escape into an online world.  It is no different than people who escape with alcohol, drugs, food, busy-ness.  I have precious little physical, mental or emotional energy and I need to expend that at home with my family. I will be back at the first of the year.  I covet your prayers during this time.

I will be praying for you that He will surround you with an atmosphere of spiritual peace and joy and that He will show you a way through the depression. I know in my own personal experience that for me He has taught me to give it to Him and leave it with Him to change, and then I have had to decide I will not go there and that I will sing or claim the scriptures, even if I don't feel like it, often with tears streaming down my face....but He is so faithful. Oh I will be praying for you. May you have a blessed time with your family over the holidays and I look forward to hearing from you when you are back.

In Him who loves you so much and is so able,
Colleen

my computer problems have made it hard to keep up with my friends blogs, as well as my own.

I'll be praying for you and look forward to your return.

I so admire the strength that you model by even saying this. Taking this 'leave' from the computer. (I think I should do it alot more often. Writing for me is a release valve but it doesn't mean I have to come do it and post it and return to browse or read or research!)

Sad to say .... I miss lots of 'time' with loved ones due to this computer. I've felt the Lord's little nudges at times. I admire your honesty and strength.

I love you, Sister and so does He!!

Dec. 16, 2005 - Praying

Posted by insomniac

It's easy for those who are not suffering to try to express words of encouragement and comfort. Kind of like it's easier to say something than to do it!

When we're in the valley it's hard to see the mountain top. Things seem so overwhelming. Just putting one foot in front of the other doesn't seem like much progress, but eventually you'll get there with the help of the Lord!

I pray that you'll grab onto the glimmers of hope and comfort and strength, and that those glimmers will become bright beacons soon!
