Make sure that you have consulted with God regarding your plans to vindicate your family. I will be praying.

I stand in agreement with Lambslove's prayer.

Could it be that the peace of Christ is at work? If you sense His peace, and are living out the scripture that says "do not grieve as those who have no hope"...then don't let anyone cause you to question it. Its funny sometimes, how we say we believe that God brings peace and joy in the midst of...

I believe that if you will begin (if you aren't already) praying that God will teach your friend the forgiveness of Christ, and to begin to speak to her about the relationship with you, then He will do it. We are incapable of transforming our own hearts, or anyone else's...but God can.

Has anyone seen my glasses?

42 in October. How old I FEEL depends on what time it is. In the mornings I feel 60, trying to get my self out of bed. By lunch time I'm feeling like I can still eat whatever I want without gaining weight, by late afternoon I'm cranky and in need of a nap, at night I revert to being a teenager...

I like the new colors. Softens everything up. But then...I am a freak who moves my furniture around for no apparent reason. :)
