Deep Thoughts

I have been thinking about how to change things up a bit on here and still let y'all in on our personal lives around here. So I have decided to post MORE personally. This isn't going to be easy, because it means that I have to admit that I am not perfect (I know!!) and that our family has flaws like everyone elses. Yes. I do get angry at my husband. Yes. My children drive me batty at times. Yes. I get discontent. Yes. I wonder where God is in the mix. Yes. I even wonder if this is all there is to life. But the thing that stays constant is that He guides me in the direction I need to go. He leads me to places to find the answers I have been looking for. Just the other day, I found an aquaintance on MySpace that I don't really talk to, but that I had some courses with. I went to her site and was reading her blog when I was totally convicted of my laziness in my relationship with Christ. My eyes filled with tears, and I read like a thirsty person would drink water. I NEED to find time to read my Bible. I NEED to lock myself in my closet and talk to the One who really matters. I NEED to set a better example for my daughters. So, I am making a decision to change. And I am going to start right now. Care to join me on this journey? We can encourage one another. Let's go sit in Jesus lap and let Him hold us!

Crazy how God opens our eyes, huh..?.. I join you in the change, to spend time with Him, to give Him ALL my cares, to talk with Him throughout my whole day! Let's do this thing - accountability.
