God Speaks

I spent some time this morning trying to contact Jennifer.
She was released from the hospital; I am told that she is refusing placement and treatment recommendations.

A few moments ago, I flipped the page on my "desktop" devotional:
"When we release our children into the Father's hands, and acknowledge that He is in control of their lives and ours, both we and our children will have greater peace."

Thank you, Lord.

Giving Up More ....

#2 will be leaving home in a few weeks, and I have finally resolved to give up "mother guilt" about cooking.

Because of OUR schedules, many nights we get home from our day, 7 or 8 p.m. or later - even if it's not a night of late meetings or events, I'm just not emotionally into preparing, cooking and cleaning up a traditional MEAL. Thus far, no one has starved to death.

After all these years, I'm changing my attitude. Instead of feeling like I failed at this aspect of parenting, we'll just have fun with our peanut butter and banana sandwiches, and CELEBRATE the few days when we do cook a meal.

Boar's Head is my FRIEND!!!

February 17, 2009

I took you from the ends of the earth,
from its farthest corners I called you.
I said, "you are my servant"; I have chosen you and not rejected you.

So do not fear. for I am with you;
do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you;
I will uphold you with my righteous hand.
(Is 41: 9-10)

He speaks to me, in His promises to the ancients
Lord, what is your will for me today?

Happy Birthday, Walker!!
