As we begin to adjust....

Week Three- wow- three weeks have gone by since our arrival here in Texas- time does keep going reguardless of your like or dislike of being some place. Sometimes I do wish I could freeze time for a while so I can linger in my feels, thoughts and life.

This week we schooled as usual, we had some late days do to the fact that if you do anything here, it is almost an all day task. Something I was so willing to forget about Texas. Everything is far, at least a 30 minute drive to anything you want to do. Walmart,Library,anything...

We found a very small, but wonderful homeschooling, support group to be involved with. It is lead by this wonderful Lady, named Bambi. She is the one who invited me to the women's bible Study. (which I love and look forward to each week!) It is just a group that gathers together for field trips, and gym days. Which is perfect for me. I do not want and over involved group!!

As I go through my bible study- this week we are working on Psalm 123(if you want to go with through it with me) It was such a reminder for me of where my eyes need to be. Towards the King of HIM. I long to gaze up and see His face and put my hand in HIS! At this time I need him to guide me, to hold my hand, to reassure me that all is well, and will be well! I love you Lord-
I lift my eyes unto the hills, where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, maker of Heave and EARTH!!

Has HE helped you, guided you, lifted you up lately? If so I would be so encouraged to hear!

    Set your eyes on the prize, and all else will fall gently in line. I hope you feel encouraged as each day continues as you start a new chapter of life in Texas. Remember, God provides ALL that we need, seek his will always and you will find the peace you need. He doesn't give you anything you can't handle. As you know! :) Have a good day!

    I so understand what you have felt in the past couple of weeks. Yours being in a place you don't want to be and mine being in a situation I don't want to be. I'm going through a drought right now. Longing for the Lord, with no time to seek Him. I feel like I am drowning and at any moment the water will overtake me. I long for just moments when things are slow and calm and I too can just rest in His word/presence. It feels so long since I have felt Him near me. How long O Lord? How long? How Long will I cry out to You and not hear Your answer or feel Your presence?
    Thanks for your encouragment and walk, it helps to know I am not alone, and we can gently lift one another up. God Bless

BFS #124 - The Easy Button

Assignment - This week I would like you to post any prayer requests you have. What is going on in your life that you need prayer warriors for? When this assignment came through I was going to share  prayer request for a much needed rental home, and new job for my beloved, but in a blink of an eye those things were no longer a concern. A truly serious, and sobering matter occurred. I was not sure how to share with all of you this matter- and how desperate I was. I was not sure how to even lift my eyes towards heaven for fear that he would not hear me, or not even want what I was wanting.  I was not sure I could handle a loss of my child. My baby- my eldest- He is 18 years old, 6 days ago he started to develop these sharp pains that would shoot to the back of his eyes. At first he described them as a headache, but he realized it was not headache, and started to complain more of the pain, and stated that pain relievers were not working. I made a doctors appointment. When the do...

Hello all...

Hello my Siesta(Beth Moore's word for Sisters-Love it)  I have decided to start this online bible Blog Study that Preacher's Wife  wrote. It has already started my wheels turning in my mind and heart. The very first question:  Are there any circumstances or relationships in your life where you can see God has intentionally placed you? Yes- many! A few grow heavy in my heart! What do you perceive may be at stake if you do or do not speak out for Him? The person's soul will be lost for eternity. They will not walk with me into the gates of heaven and I will spend the rest of my eternal life knowning I did nothing, said nothing and do not do what God intended me to do. Can you Honestly describe yourself as a woman with a "yes" in her spirit? No I can not say I can- I would like to fool myself and those around you to say I am but when it comes down to it.. I have failed! If not what keeps you from this? FEAR- fear that the person will see my words as judgement and no...

What is the meaning of family or extended family to you?

One of the things about moving to Texas that we were "excited" about was the thought of having "all the family" here.(actually extended family) Grandma,grandpa,  Sam's brothers, and sister are all here.  Well we have been here almost 6 months now. I guess the newness of us being here has worn off, because we do not receive  phone calls, text messages, or emails of;" what are you all doing this weekend?"  " Do you want to get together?"  It has turned out to be just like any other time we lived in close vicinity of each other. We have become special occasion, holiday only relations.  Why is that?  How does that happen?  Is it because we live such separate lives?   Our lives are very uneventful. We spend them each day just surviving that day. We do not think of tomorrow- (that is scriptural) We do not take pleasure in vain things. I hate to shop. I love to sew. I hate going to the beauty parlor. All those things that "woman" are suppo...
