Why Is It So Hard?

I haven't been blogging for very long.  Not really.  Not compared to some.  I am having writer's block at the moment.  I could tell you all the mundane things going on in my life, but I have to ask myself, "Do these people really care?"  Is anyone really reading these and am I really making a difference in anyone's life?  Probably not. 

Is this blog for you?  Or for me?  I am all over the place with the topics.  The posts are either encouraging you in prayer, home education, Spiritual life, or whatever else seems to be pertinent to my life at the time.  I like sharing my experiences with others.  But I really do wonder sometimes, do you readers care?  I pray that I am able to encourage or entertain you with my posts.

I have several items I am going to share even if no one reads.

*Our next door neighbor was in a car accident that was not her fault.  She suffered some injuries and her car was totalled.  She has a 2-year old grandaughter who was with us thankfully.  I am so grateful that we were babysitting that little girl and she did not get harmed.  But, at the same time, I wish it had not happened to my dear friend.  I don't know how I can help them but wish there was a way.  I am praying that God reveal to me a way in which I may help them, besides continuing to watch Skye while she recovers

*My favorite uncle is in the hospital.  He has blockage in his intestines and they are having to do surgery to repair the damage.  I pray the doctors are able to do what they do best with the steady hand of God and that he will be back home to a quick recovery.  God Speed, Uncle Bollie!  We love you!

*L.I.F.E. has taken up more time than I care to put into it!  Yeah we only have to be there on Tuesdays but the classes the kids are taking require more homework than I care to do.  I am not a rigid educator.  I am quite laid back.  Maybe a little too laid back.  I want my kids to learn don't get me wrong.  I want my kids to know the Lord and to serve Him and others just as much. 

*The opportunities at the Food Pantry are taking up more time than I would have expected.  I want to be able to serve our community.  I also know that the time I spend at the pantry is time away from educating my children.  Lord, I NEED you tell me what to do!  I know what my problem is: Time Management!  I need to manage my time better and the time I spend serving others will not be such a hinderance. 

See, I solved one of my situations right here on the computer.  Sometimes it just takes 'talking' it through to see the complete picture.  Thanks, Lord!

Well, not much else is going on.  Caleb leg continues to heal although not as quick as I would like it to.  I guess it's that way we humans are these days.  We want instant everything- internet, food, healing!  I am glad that God does deal with us instantly- that He makes us wait.  It actually is good for us!

I hope you reader are doing well these days.  I would still like for you to let me know of any prayer requests you might have.  If YOU would pray for it, then we will too!  No prayer is too little.

Lord, I want to thank you for this day.  I want to feel your presence in our home, in our community, in our church and even on this internet community.  Please let the readers know that I am truly willing to pray on their behalfs.  Lord You have given us this day that we should rejoice and be glad in it.  I am glad this day to be serving You.  Help me to know how to serve others as well.  I thank You for sending Your Son to die on the cross, to take away our sins, that I may spend eternity with You, glorifying You.  I pray those who do not know you will see that they need you.  I pray You will prick their hearts to know that they are sinners and they need You.  I thank You for the seasons.  We have had our windows open and the air is wonderful.  The breeze through the trees and the sound of the birds fill the rooms.  The sounds of Your creation.  Lord, we thank you for our very breath.  May we not take for granted the breath we are given this day.  In Jesus Name, Amen!
