We don't talk much in here, and I regret that. Sometimes it just seems too hard. I'm not sure why. It's not exactly because of the pain. It's more like...well...more like - living it can be exhausting, sometimes I just don't want to have to put out more effort. That doesn't exactly say it, but it comes close. Does anyone have anything positive to say about their situation? I would like to say that, I seem to be finding out things ( good and bad ) about myself that I wasn't aware of when my husband was alive. We had a co-dependent relationship and now I feel more free in some respects, but scared too. The Lord really has a way of bringing these things into His light, for better understanding. Some days I hate my life, which I always repent of later. Mostly it's because of the fatigue and loneliness. God is good, though. Always there. Always holding me in the palm of His hand. What a journey this is! Praise God.

I second you on your statement of "What a journey this is." I'm learning a lot about myself and our purpose. Always remember that He is with us! God Bless!

CSML,
What's going on with your posts? I counted 16 partial ones before the one that came out right. Is it a glitch?

I have to say that you are an inspiration to me. The way you seem to be walking in God's light. You and your kids sound like such faithful servants of God. I, on the other hand seem to be one of God's "Problem children". ( I had another melt-down today.) I can't believe He puts up with me. I sometimes picture Him, sighing, with His hand on His forehead, shaking His head slowly back and forth in response to the the way I act and the things I say and do. I am so grateful for His incomprehensible grace and mercy. When I think of what it cost Him to give me this gift of grace, all I can do is weep in shame and regret for my lack of self control and my shenanigans. Funny, the Lord just brought the Apostle John to my mind, to remind me that John whom we now call the "the Apostle of Love", was formerly one of the "Sons of Thunder." Hmmm...See what I mean about His mercy? Only in His grace and through His infinite love and wisdom is there hope for me. Thank You, precious Lord Jesus.

Anyway, I'm so glad to hear you and your children are doing good right now. You all remain in my prayers. God bless you and yours. Your friend in Him Who loves us,
Pilgrim

Pilgrim,
Not sure what's happening with the multiple posts.... It's done this before. I can't even get them to delete..
Anyway, Always remember that we are sinners saved by His grace. There was only one who was the perfect Lamb of God. He doesn't get discourage with our failures but only holds us that much tighter in His everlasting love. Jesus walked this earth as a man, felt the same feelings we feel, so He knows what we are feeling no matter what we are feeling. Continue to walk in His light, He will pull us stay sheep back to the flock when we try to wander. Always in my prayers Pilgrim....CSML (I kinda like that, I got the initials from you, ha).
