Reminising about the past... All through our lives we experience changes. Our emotions are up and down and we feel good some days and bad on others. We experience happiness and unfortunately great sadness at various times of our lifetime. That is why it is so important to not be led by how you feel at any given moment or to make decisions based on your emotions. One thing that I sadly regret doing is selling my Condo in Maui. As my thoughts go back and looking at the surrounding circumstances I know that this was an emotional decision. During this time period I had rented it out to an unknown couple for one week while I left the island for the holidays and they flooded the unit causing the ceiling below my unit to start collapsing. Just the stress of the experience caused me to say I have had enough and I MUST SELL NOW to take care of this ladies ceiling and water dripping all over her lovely belongings. I sat back and thought after the fact, that I could have resolved this for about $1,500. yet I did not and the result was the loss of my dreams. Can anyone relate? I guess the moral of this story is to not make major decisions while under stress. Hebrews 13:8 says, "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever." It is better to be led by Christ than by our constantly shifting and changing feelings. Women especially need to heed this warning because we are more emotional than men and feelings are very important to us. We need to make sure we're planted in God's house and in His Word. Remember who you are in Christ instead of giving into insecurities and fear by making life-altering decisions without trusting God to give direction and guidance. Trust the God who "does not change like shifting shadows," as it says in James 1:17. Make your emotions the caboose, not the engine. This is my desire for my life which I will be trying to make really real next year. Letting God be the engine and me the caboose. Then another thing happened tonight by chance. I received an email from some stranger and noticed that he looked much like my first husband in many ways. I then realized than I was at the age of 19 and my is 17 1/2. I was married for 5 years. I got this crazy idea to google his name and low and behold I found a picture and also a resume and I was able to remember the exact events that transpired some 30 years ago. Sorta creepy, I know...but it happened. So much time has passed. He has two from his second marriage, I have been told. I have not spoken to him in years. It's interesting how the mind wanders at times. Considering my sons age and what I feel his maturity level is and how I felt at that same general age, it makes me have great understanding as to what road is ahead of him although he thinks I have no clue. I only hope that he gets glimpses of the lessons that I have learned, as I got really no instruction myself... sigh... I shall pray. Care to share similar experiences and create healing among us? ![]() (¯`•♥•´¯) ¤`•.♥.•´ ¤ (¯`•♥•´¯) |

As long as we are in this body of sin we will need to be constantly relying on the Lord...I do not trust my flesh as far as I can thropw it...![]() Nicole C. Mullen: Call On Jesus I'm so very ordinary Nothing special on my own I have never walked on water I have never calmed a storm Sometimes I'm hiding away from the madness around me Like a child who's afraid of the dark But when I call on Jesus All things are possible I can mount on wings like eagles and soar When I call on Jesus Mountains are gonna fall 'Cause He'll move heaven and earth to come rescue me when I call Weary brother Broken daughter Widowed, widowed lover You're not alone If you're tired and scared of the madness around you If you can't find the strength to carry on When you call on Jesus All things are possible You can mount on wings like eagles and soar When you call on Jesus Mountains are 'gonna fall 'Cause He'll move heaven and earth to come and rescue you when you call Call him in the mornin' In the afternoon time Late in the evenin' He'll be there When your heart is broken And you feel discouraged You can just remember that He said He'll be there When I call on Jesus All things are possible I can mount on wings like eagles and soar When I call on Jesus Mountains are gonna fall 'Cause He'll move heaven and earth to come rescue me when I call Isaiah 42:8 " I am the Lord; that is my name! And My glory I will not give to another, nor My praise to graven images."
