Thank you Ann Ann Marie Haywood. I really needed that today! My confidence is in Him and His ability to change the circumstances and bring us through. It is not by my power and I will do my best to rest in Him today!Monday (interesting the things my God Friend sends me... )

Do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised.

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY'S VERSE...

Boy there are some tough times in life! They're inescapable. That's when our confidence in the Lord's salvation and our relationship with him get tested! It is one thing to sing "it is well with my soul" at the end of a peel-the-paint worship service, but it is quite another to be able to sing it when they auction your house off at the courthouse steps or you've lost a child to death. That's when the commitment to be who we want to be overrides the weakness of what we feel. Faith can't take a holiday when we travel through the suburbs of hell or we'll never find our way out. So don't throw it away. Be like Job or Jeremiah who both argued and complained to God. Just don't quit.

MY PRAYER...

Holy and Almighty God, today is a good day. But I am profoundly aware that some of those I love are wrestling with throwing away their confidence in your love, mercy, grace, peace, and deliverance. Please use me, but even more I pray that you use your Holy Spirit to renew their hearts. I pray that you intervene directly to change the course of events and give them relief. In Jesus name I pray. Amen. — with Brant Honeycutt and 2 others.

Keep my peace... that's a joke right??


Nothing can happen without God's permission and God will not allow a difficulty unless He has a divine purpose for it. If you will keep your peace, you'll pass the test, and God will bring you out better than you were before.

Quite interesting to hear that as a rebellious teen I created my "family" I wanted... personally I think I created the one that I needed to survive. Guess what the supposed rebellious creation of my sister has been there for me when the real sibling and real step siblings weren't.. so screw you and your psycho babble.. you are just pissed no one wanted you to be a Sisper! I would agree... we aren't best friends.. we are Sispers.. they fight they argue but they love each other and we can go periods of wanting to pull the others hair out or flatten each others tires at times, but in the end isn't that what siblings do... we weren't designed to get along every day we were designed to pick on each other get on each others nerves but in the end love each other unconditionally.. Pissy. — with Phyllis Marsh Boshell.

I was just about to post about my insomnia. Why is it that when I am so exhausted from the weekend I can't sleep. Oh yes. Monday.


Robin: Anxiety and insomnia about Mondays aren't normal are they?

True Story!

On the way home I am thinking about a reunion I missed, a race I missed, a field day that I was physically at yet wasn't mentally, thinking how can anyone be having any fun, how is this world still turning, and why the heck don't I just end the dang misery already when I look up and see....

My guy hard at work... Or hard at relaxing. You decide — with Edward Wesley.

I know I am different. Not who I was. I may never me the old me but I am working hard on a new me I may not be a better than an old me, me but I want to be a better than now me me. I ask my friends who love me for patience and support. I notice glimmers of new life but then I notice times of insecurity and isolation out of fear and other emotions I can't explain. — feeling hopeful.

It's so hard to focus on the time that we had versus the time that has passed since you were last with us. I know we will all be together soon, this I need to focus on and the legacy you left behind. I love you my sweet angel my love flies to you and your brother on the wings of angels!
