Well, Lynn, I think you are wrong about something. You are GREAT at expressing yourself! I felt every emotion typed. I love you!

First of all I am not very good at expressing my words. Deanna you definitely have a wonderful gift. These words that you have written remind me of the scripture that says “No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.” (I Corinthians 10:13, NIV) I must admit that sometimes we stand on very wobbly legs and sometimes we need friends to help hold us up.
I believe, in my own life anyway at this moment in time, that my temptation is to just give up, throw in the towel, the game is over when really, all along God is not finished with me. If He were done with me then I would be at home with Him. It is so easy to get caught up in this world that we live in and allow its cares and temptations to change our minds. The world tells us that if your kids are not doing what you think they should then your a “bad parent”. If your husband is not doing what you think he should then “get another one.” This world encourages our “already well exercised” selfishness. That is why He provides a way out so that we can stand up under it. God knows what this world has to offer and he knows us and our selfishness.
I don’t really know where I am going with this, I told you I am not very good at expressing myself but I do know that the words that God has given Deanna the past 2 weeks have really ministered to me. Thank you D for your obedience to write what He tells you. You have definitely been a messenger from God to me!!!

wow Deanna that was GREAT!!! Really appreciated it – such an encouragement – we are really dealing with a mess right now in our lives – things have kind of gone into limbo and its so confusing at times when you don’t know what God is doing – thank you
