Funny Little Life Poem

There was a time that I thought my life was as good as it got.
That was about 10 years ago.

Then a time came along that I thought my life was as bad as it got.
That wasn't really that long ago.

But it feels like a life time...WAIT! It is exactly that...
MY life - time.

And good or bad, it is just what it is
And just what it is supposed to be.

I like that and it's okay.
Right now, I feel like my life is better than it has EVER been.

Yep, tops 10 years ago, that's for sure.
My marriage is better,
my kids are healthy, happy, and lovable,
my friendships are healthier
and my walk with God closer.

And even if I wake up tomorrow
and all that is different,
I know that it is how it is supposed to be.
And I know I will be okay.

God has proven that to me over and over again.
He has brought me through,
shown me how He works,
how He heals,
how He takes away,
and how He blesses 10 fold!

How awesome is He?
The Most Awesome!

Loving life!

I Got A Feeling....

that this is gonna be a good, good year!!!!!! I have great expectations! And I don't make New Year's Resolutions, but I do like goals. And prayers. I know God will answer prayers, and there are a few that I look forward to seeing the answer to, hopefully in 2010. It would be great if love and peace and forgiveness would win out in a few broken relationships. I am still praying. And I am look forward to how my marriage will become more wonderful, as it does every year! My health should improve since I am training for a triathlon. I lost 23 pounds in 2009. I look forward to losing about 15 to 20 more. Completing the Caveman triathlon with a couple of my very good friends is a goal that I am excited to achieve! It is going to be fun to see what God is going to do because I said "yes" to Him and stepped up into Home Group leadership with my church. And my church.... I have to say I am amazed and thrilled to love my church! What a blessing after so many years of being a s...

Behind Those Eyes - Chapter 8

We are completely loved and accepted completely. That is the chapter title this week and it is such good news! It is news that I have heard before, but news that I was glad to hear again. Lisa's story at the end of the chapter touched my heart...you know, the one where she woke up the morning after her prayer asking God to let her know that they were okay. The song in her head, that really was in her heart is awesome. I have had those times. Recently, I have had quite a few. The last few months (years maybe?) have been a little difficult. Some days I have wondered, "Does He REALLY love me?" And then some sort of confirmation will come along, He will let me know that we are okay and my heart sings. His love is gentle. His love is perfect. His love is comforting. And his love is absolutely unconditional. My blog time is shortened this week due the death in my family. My post is short, but honest and heartfelt. This week, I had a couple of conversations with a good...

Gone

A fire burns behind me I run to keep ahead Those who I once cared for becoming cold and dead Red and black the flames grow high Smoke rises in the air The pain of my unworthiness Seems more than I can bear In front of me I see the sun I long to feel it's heat The iciness inside my heart has paralyzed my feet I see the moon, I see the stars They swirl and dance for me I see the hole, the big dark hole Where one star used to be
