I Trust You
Heavenly Father, I am sorry. I lied to you. I told you I would never deny you and I would always trust you. But… You knew better, you knew that was just not true. Yet, you still love me and smile on me every day. I cry, I whine, I get scared, every day. Yet, [&hellip
God’s Plan
I am part of the fallen Paradise… I have spent the good part of 2 years seeking God in a way that I have never in my life. There was a day that I lived and breathed without thinking about what God wants for me. That day is gone. I thought that seeking Him meant [&hellip
Pissed Off at God
So everyone ”professional” tells me it’s ok to be mad at God. I have had some real anger issues with Him the last several months and haven’t been able to get past them. So I am hoping writing will clear the air between us! Because He has my utmost respect, I am going to try [&hellip

My Heart Aches
What makes your heart ache? What makes you feel like you don’t do enough? There is a man who stands on the corner near the entrance to our neighborhood. I have seen him periodically for about 6 months now. Today it was bitterly cold. You would only stand out there begging if you were completely [&hellip
Through Ups and Downs
”… his heart is steadfast, trusting the Lord His heart is tranquil, without fear.” Psalm 112:7b – 8a I like to say that in the military, nothing is final until you get your orders… and even those can change. It seems that we are always waiting to know what our next job will be, when [&hellip
