Down But Not Out

Well, it's been over two months since I have posted to this blog.  I have to admit that I am one who has joined the ranks of working-class single mothers, burning the candle at both ends.  I received a promotion at work, had to deal with some debilitating symptoms of my disease, and have found myself back at a place in my life where I need to re-prioritize.  As I am in my 45th year of life, I do realize that the old saying is true - "The more things change, the more they stay the same."  Once I think I have found the right balance to my life, the rules change.  What has not changed is my desire to share my faith and journey with others, hoping that the joys and struggles may encourage someone, somewhere.

As I seek the Lord, and ask Him to show me the balance my life lacks, it is my prayer that He will guide me on the path He has chosen.  His yoke is easy, and His burden is light!

I have some promised "letters" to write to my kids in the next four posts...

Right now, I will be cuddling up on the couch to read to my little girl, and tucking her into bed.

Deary Heavenly Father,
Thank You for always being with me, softly prompting me to forge on.  I know that there is nothing in my life that surprises You, or is too difficult for You to handle.  Please guide my decisions, especially where my time is concerned.  Help me to keep eternity's values in view!  In Jesus Name...
