Been a while!

Wow! It has been so long since I posted, that I forgot my password!!!! Not a good sign. I apologize for not writing and have missed my time here. It has been a whirlwind of a month and trust in God seems like the only thing I can hold on to. Today's post will be a little different than most... just sharing what is happening in my life.

I was considering returning to teaching and then felt like God was saying that is your plan, Not Mine. The job I was waiting on was filled and it felt as though God was slamming the door in my face. I was filled with confusion, sadness, fear and relief all at the same time. So, on to the next plan.

I began searching jobs elsewhere and really felt no peace at all in my heart. I have DESPERATELY wanted to move away from Tyler and it seems that God is always saying, not Now My Child, Not now. Frustrating... I just want some ADVENTURE!!!

More has happened... but the biggest is that my Dad has been diagnosed with Congestive Heart Failure once again (he was sick with this 20 years ago). Immediately I was grateful that God was keeping me here to be close to home. The last few days have been full of tears, laughter and prayers. God is good. I must trust in Him. My dad is doing okay and we will roll with the punches. I will write more soon (I PROMISE!!!) I have been studying about Peace for a talk on Thursday and it could not have come at a better time. Right now, in the midst of the storm, HIS PEACE is all we have.

Love you all!!!
