Well, to all the Moms who pass by in the next week - HELP! I am so weary from my little ladies fits. I've mentioned in a previous entry that this is the most trying phase for me and I am getting my confirmation! Please be praying for me to train her well and lovingly. Thanks!
As for the rest of my life, not that the first bit of an update wasn't 99.9%.........
I am in a place of wandering. We have moved again and I am somewhere between new, old and forever friends. Do i call the new friends when I have a need for prayer and counsel or the old ones? Do we go to the church in this neighborhood or the one across town? Will the neighbors be friends or just acquaintances? I never did like limbo. I am tired and irratable alot, part this season, part my chioces and part the time of the month, LOL.
I can tell that I don't have a place to fit yet and that is hard for me. This season is full of waiting. Waiting for boxes to disappear, projects to be done and school to be completed. As I seek to commit my time and talents to a worthy cause I find the Lord closing the doors and giving only the directive of 'wait.' I want 'go' or something of that manner! Wait is what I need, what we need to do now though.
The possibilities that come from waiting are great, they are the joy set before me in this trying season. My hubby and I will be able to engage in a ministry together and with our children! I can wait for that. And besides, the best place to be is where the Lord says to be. My greatest fear is that I will go the wrong direction and end up on 'My Way' HW instead of the 'Higher Way' HW.
Sad. I am sad that I am not involved in a ministry outside the home now. I love to go and serve and give counsel! But, I am able to lay down some prayer for thise who the Lord puts on my heart and remember that that is the entire ministry of those of you who cannot get up and out. Thank you for the way you faithfully pray for your family and for any misionaries and single parens that the Lord puts on your heart!
So, here is the question I am posing to you...
Are you driving on the My Way HW or on the Higher Way HW?

Girl, miss you so much! I wish we would have our coffee & park visits now. I wish you were at LTD conference---sooo good and I now feel rejuvenated from that "tired" feeling you are speaking of! My girl's fits are increasing & I truly do find turning my back & walking away a very beneficial response. They usually only last a few seconds. Enjoy your season. God has you there for a reason!
I'm glad you're back. :) & am glad that school has turned out to be a good fit for your family. Hope you feel at home here soon, call anytime. :) love ya friend, ml
