It's one of those....

....one of those days where I wished to not go by feelings.....unless it was the feelings that would have loved to take me to the cabin. If only it could have become reality. Why do I go by feelings? They let me down all the time. I should know better by now but still they want to run my life and make my day go ways other than the way it should go. I read my Bible, I pray, I search, but until my heart is willing to be broken and crushed none of these things are going to help. Willingness? Surrender! Submission. Oh how those words hurt. I want things my way, I want things to work how I want them too, I want things to JUST MAKE SENSE! Why does self have to always stick it's ugly head up and make things difficult?
I read in a book today. "God never said life would be easy. The purpose of living isn't about our personal happiness....it's about serving God. When it comes to our relationship with our Creator we should always have our yes on the table. If God asks us to do something we do it!"
I will close my ramblings with a verse a friend shared with me today, even though it's not something I wanted to hear. I listened to it repeated over and over again. Jeremiah 32:27, "I am the Lord, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for me?" God is God and each and every part of my life is planned for a purpose and with God...NOTHING will be too hard.

When I Grow Up

Image
My kids love to sing. Right now for some reason they keep picking the song "When I Grow Up." The chorus goes: "When I grow up I wanna be just like you, so don't disappoint me I can see what you do. If you follow Jesus I will follow him too, so don't disappoint me, I can see what you do." Don't forbid little children to come unto Him For such is the kingdom of God, Always set an example that points out the way And do what the Lord has to say. Don't forget little children become big folks some day For what you see becomes what you do. If you walk with Jesus, I'll walk with Him too. So don't forget, I'm close behind you. I really like the song but when it's time for the chorus it gets me every time. Maybe it is those 12 hands and 60 fingers that are pointing my way. Today I pointed back at them and they had a few words to say as soon as the song finish! "Miss....WE ARE FOLLOWING YOU! You can't foll...

February

..here it is. It's hot, dry, and breezy. The month is almost halfway gone already. sigh. It's hard to believe it's been one whole year already that I've been married to this wonderful man. He truly is so extremely good for me. Marriage is a wonderful thing. It's good to have the first year behind us though. We look forward to many more! February 7 is Independence Day. The churches had a picnic and cooked the national dish. Kyla...or little Cindy as I call her. oil down...it was deliciously made by Sammy. A few wore their Independence colors!  Sailing festival was also held the other weekend on the beach. I was wishing so badly I had remembered my camera but alas phone pictures had to work! Sports Day is coming up for most schools. I went to Wesley College Sports day on Wednesday. It was good to see how secondary schools do it! I went in support of Alana's son Joshim. He didn't disapp...

of police and goodbyes

Image
It was the night before some people departed the states to the wonderful Isle of Spice. Who wouldn't stay out late? Well...I would..and I did. The regrets came in the morning with only 2 hours of sleep and off to work at an unearthly hour. I work when I can...even if it is only a few hours. I felt like I had to keep redoing things...my brain was malfunctioning. Coffee was needed but I didn't want to be the reason for potty breaks on the way to the airport...thus I refrained. I left work in my own little world oblivious to a police officer sitting nearby. I believe he was sleeping as well..much to my benefit. With suitcases packed on that Ford truck we began to "RUN IT"...traffic moves well most days. I try to keep with traffic. They can usually break radar for you. The SUV lost me when it got to about 25 over the speed limit. It was a good thing! There was enough of a gap between us that officer had his nose out in traffic as I tried to quickly change lanes. Sorry fo...
