Insomnia

It's 2 a.m. and I can't sleep.
Sometimes this happens, it might be part of menopause. ugh. Or maybe I just can't sleep.
Whatever the reason, I don't mind tonight because I have lots to think about.
My friends, Wendy and Scott, got to meet their child today - A GIRL! Right now she lives in an orphanage in Moscow, but in a couple of months, she will come home to the U.S.A.! I am so excited for them, I can barely sleep!
And, I am starting to help plan a wedding! Yes! My son and his fiance' have finally narrowed down a wedding date! Not until next May...but...let the wedding plans begin!

Praying God's favor on your friends for this adoption. We had some locals who adopted from there....much wisdom and favor needed with that country. But so cool...hand picked by God to be a family. I can imagine you will have a grand time with a wedding in the works. Sleep is interesting as we age. I'm very thankful I don't work outside of the home....it's not as hard as many facing a day's work on interrupted sleep. Praying His grace for your day!

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...

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

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...
