"I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much." ~Mother Teresa
Hello Everyone! I thought I should explain to my followers and friends why I haven't been blogging, writing or visiting more as of late. I apologize to you all! I've had a lot going on in my life recently; with school, work, trying to sell my house; getting ready for two very special graduations this week; and being 'hacked' last week.... well my days have been very full.

Along with everything else, I've been helping my son who's graduating, pack all of his stuff. He will be moving far away soon... for a new job and a brand new life. I am so proud and happy for him; but can you hear the tear drops falling?!! ...'sigh'...
Through all of this I have also been thinking about my own life and what I want. I'm even pondering some 'life changing' decisions. This is why I'm praying for God to give me strength and direction.
Mother's day was filled with a mix of emotions including: happiness for my 3 sons; pride for their accomplishments; sadness for another one leaving; laughter from the times we have together; and unconditional love from understanding and accepting each other just the way we are. There were even 'tears'... because... well I'm a woman and a Mom, with so many thoughts and feelings spinning around inside of me right now. So I ran the whole gamut yesterday and I have a feeling that was only the beginning for this coming week... ;-)
Except for my Friday Post, I may be absent from blogging for a while longer. I will fill everyone in as soon as I can... with pictures of course. Thank you all for your continued friendship, support and 'virtual' Hugs!! I love you all more than you know!! XOXO
God give me the strength and direction to do the right things and make the best decisions. Help me to consider others and not harm or offend anyone in any way. Help me to consult with others before I take any actions that would cause me to be sorry. Help me to not make decisions from fear or guilt. Show me the way of Patience, Tolerance, Kindliness, and Love and help me live the spiritual life of faith, peace and love. AMEN
I know you will make the right decisions, because you are asking God's help. Things don't usually go right when we insist on our own way.

Prayer and silence must go hand in hand my friend. If you pray without silence how do you hear the answer? So be quite in the louder moments.
ReplyDeleteAnd I hope your life altering adventure moves you closer so I can give you a real hug. I'll always be here if you need anything. XOXO

I'll keep you in my thoughts and I wish you all the very best during all of this. I am going through some things right now as well and it's been rough. I love your quote from Mother Theresa. It's a gem. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteWhy is it so hard sometimes to change course in life? I'm sure that you will find the strength and direction that you need and that you will have many happy days in your future!
ReplyDeleteBlogging is a lot of work and time consuming, so I completely understand... Hope you find peace and joy during this time of transition :)
