Brothers and Sisters,

I was just thinking about this portion of Scripture and wanted to share it with everyone:

Romans 8:24-28 For in hope were we saved: but hope that is seen is not hope: for who hopeth for that which he seeth? 25 But if we hope for that which we see not, then do we with patience wait for it. 26 And in like manner the Spirit also helpeth our infirmity: for we know not how to pray as we ought; but the Spirit himself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered; 27 and he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. 28 And we know that to them that love God all things work together for good, even to them that are called according to his purpose.
:amen: Praise God :clap:

Thanks Tom ~ that was much needed today :hug:

God bless :pray:

:hug::hug: You always know what to say :) I do my best, that is for sure... I think most of my problems are social... I don't know what to do with conflict... never really learned that... sometimes I'm okay sometimes not, I got a bad performance appraisal for two reasons... inability to take criticism and inability to deal with conflict... everything else I either excel or am fine in but that didn't seem to matter...I now cannot get the higher paid position so I will have to settle for the lower paid one. (another 5000 a year cut) if I am to stay. It seems I don't do company politics that well... I hope God has a plan that is just as much to my liking as it is to his :)

Maybe this delay is the answer...giving you time to think about the room mate issue...it is possible a better deal will turn up...I have seen it happen over and over on house hunters.

I am sorry for your disappointment Connie :hug:
Obviously the Lord has a BETTER plan and timing in this!
Continued prayers for all your needs :pray:

I love the bug pic Shirley ;)

they apparently put the house back on the market for 24 hours so I could rebid... something about me being a single woman and trying really hard to get the money there in time.... or at least that's what the realtor told them. lol.. bless her heart... I'm bidding one more time same as before.. I've talked to Mary (my friend) she might move in might not.. she doesn't want the older daughter there either... she is glad to have me say no... gives her an excuse... she is hoping for joint custody of the younger one... I can handle that I think except for I have to give up my office to make it a bedroom for a toddler... we give and take I think... I do need a family though since mine is almost non-existent.... maybe God is trying to give me another chance at familihood. :) There are two living rooms and 3 bedrooms in the house and a very big back yard... I will still get alone time which is something that concerned me... I need my alone time.

so one more bid and then I let it go :)... I'm looking for another job after this is over... it's just not a smart move while your trying to get financing. :)

this scripture has been useful in so many ways to so many people over the centuries :) thanks.

I do my best, that is for sure... I think most of my problems are social...
I don't know what to do with conflict... never really learned that...
sometimes I'm okay sometimes not,
I got a bad performance appraisal for two reasons...
inability to take criticism and inability to deal with conflict...
everything else I either excel or am fine in but that didn't seem to matter...
I now cannot get the higher paid position so I will have to settle for the lower paid one.

I hope God has a plan that is just as much to my liking as it is to his :)

re: 'bold'

Maybe my life has seen more "conflict" and therefore
views the circumstances that others see, in a more 'matter of fact' manner
[iow: having less, ~the emotional content/ conurbations]

When I am witness, to folks acting/reacting ~in ways, that I, would not
I ask myself.... "why... what is in it for them... what is it they need"
I always remember, that we are, 'all of us' different, in ever so many ways

We also, ALL OF US... have our very own special talents... usefulnesses ;)

I understand you feeling 'like a square peg in a round hole' ~hardly 'a good-fit' :thumbsup:
We do, experience those 'times' in our lives, but you should not forget [?]
That NOTHING remains the same ~Everything 'changes'... when, comes it's season to do so
;);)

:prayer:

< S M I L E >

:D
