Love you sweetie GG
I am mending. I am stepping out and having faith. I am focusing on God first. I am doing a lot of things but I still have so many questions in my head I can't answer.Hi sweetie! Hubby is still recovering (boy I swear.. MEN, when they are not 100% .... OY!) and I'm doing my best to be Christ-like. I am soooo trying to "serve" well. He'll be home again tomorrow (so pray for me - boy is it difficult to get things done with him home). My daughter on the other hand, is doing great! Praise God! She woke up on Saturday morning with color in her cheeks, feeling perfectly fine!
I survived my son's party - I heard everyone had a great time.
How are you hun?
I'd say you are just tired.. Heavens girl ! it's after 1am there! Sometimes your ministry gives you a "title" and sometimes it's just being where you are, ministering to those around you. Encouragement and compassion are rare these days, and I see that in you. Just you being you is a ministry G, whether you see that or not. You being here blesses so many people with your encouragement and authenticity. I pray you see that, and continue to bless our lives with your presence and insight.I am mending.

*sigh* Reading a lot more doing the Purpose Driven Life and Heart of the Artist ...so I am trying to stay God centered. Have my ministry interview this week I can't wait to see where God places me. I will be a member of my church soon and hopefully this will open a new life and home Christian friends. It was why I came to CF I was lonely and needed loving Christians to help me thru. I thought that Christians were kind and loving and would be loyal friends........well I met some people here I expect to keep for life and I am very happy about that.
I do believe though when I start getting more involved in the Church I have a feeling I will be here less and less.
It is sad to say that but I just don't really feel I have a ministry here anymore. Just friends who I love to come and see. If I thought I did I would think of staying but I just think it will be a sometime place in the future not an all the time place.
Maybe I just don't see it....who knows I must be tired, maybe. *sigh*
Gabs hugs Marti ....I just have alot on my mind and as you can see from my next post a tough day ahead of me so, you will excuse me. I don't mean to complain I am just experiencing and anticipating some separation anxiety...I survive I always do. Thanks Marti you are an exceptional person and a loving friend.I'd say you are just tired.. Heavens girl ! it's after 1am there!

Gabs awakens and has this scripture in her mind**tucks Gabs in her sleeping bag, placing her little lamb in plain sight so she knows THE Lamb is watching over her. Slips her bunny into the bag with her to help her feel less alone. ** Prays... Lord, bring peace to her day tomorrow. Help her to feel Your presence and Your love. Remind her of Jer 29:11 - "I know the plans I have for you..... plans to give you hope and a future." That her life is in Your hands, and that is the best place it could be. Help her see the hope in the future, even though it may be different than she ever imagined, she can KNOW that it will be fuller and richer because You are so much a part of her life. Lord, be with her in a big way tomorrow! In the name of He Who gave His life so Gabs could live in Your freedom. Amen
Thanks Tammy this is lovely. Hugs. Glad you are feeling better our prayers were with you./me stops by and leaves a tray with a vase and a single yellow rose, a cup of coffee and an assortment of creams to choose from, and a small plate of biscotti as well.

We are here if you need to be picked up in case you stumble or fall. We are also here to cheer you on when you suceed.LOL no..just taking a break for a while.. you know I love you!
I'll come by and say Hi every now and then tho.
GG looks around ....all gone. I am walking out the door now time for that business meeting...*sigh*
She turns to the cross and a tear rolls down her face....I am trusting YOU, YOU know that don't YOU.
She takes a deep breath and holds her head up high. She jumps inside the tornado and just lets herself go where she will stop only He knows.
