Respectable Sins

Our Wed. night ladies group is currently doing the Jerry Bridges "Respectable Sins" bible study... WOW...what a powerful, raw, difficult, convicting, awesome, painful, insightful and wonderful study... I've been taken down a peg or two by the Lord... a much needed peg or two... I would recommend EVERYONE read this book and do the workbook!!

Camp Shiktehawk

2 more day's and we are heading to the annual women's prayer summit... such high expectations... such anticipation... such emotion... I know God will meet us in a mighty way... I know God will use every element of the grounds, the people, the food, the fellowship, the quite time, the schedule, the speakers, the worship, the river...every element he'll use to touch, mold, shape, teach, convict, stretch, bless, heal and restore...

Lord I pray we are a group of ladies that enter into all you have for us this weekend...

Waiting on the Lord

I find the longer I journey with the Lord the easier it is to wait on Him..I am typically NOT a patient person... and praying for something specific and waiting on the Father is all new to me...but He's been so faithful to remind me in many ways that His timing is perfect...and mine is limited and flawed...

I've been waiting and praying for a prayer/accountability partner for quite some time. It's a relationship that I've wanted to have for over a year.... but the Lord has just kept that door closed... I'm still waiting... and praying...and trusting.

2009

Wow... it seems like it was just yesterday we were celebrating the year 2000!!! Time flies by too fast... New Years Day always has me reflecting back on the past... good or bad... This year as I look back over my life, and all the changes, I find myself thanking God for all I have...all I've been through...and all that is to come.... I've walked through some very dark times... and had some wonderful moments of joy... some journies of deep saddness... anger...hurt... and plenty of times to rejoice over... times of plenty and times of want--- but the thing that sticks out to me this year is something I've learned... God has always been with me, never left me or forsaken me... He knew each step of my journey and knows what the rest of it holds for me... I find comfort in that... I find joy in that... and I find that is something to be thankful for! Happy New Year!!!

Santa Clause has come to town!!!

Well... Christmas is over...for another year. I have been reminded once again how lucky, blessed and spoiled I am....

I must have been a very good girl this year!! The presents were endless.... and the love was bountiful!!!

Snow Storm !!!! Love um...hate um....

I am a lover of snow... don't mind winter... if I'm cold, I just add more layers of clothes... I love having white Christmases... and enjoy the obvious differences in the seasons in Aroostook County... my problem is with "snow day's"

Today we are having a 'blizzard'... it's a Monday morning...and I can't get out of my driveway... I feel guilty that I'm not at work! Should I have bundled up...gone outside...shoveled my driveway and tried to go to work?? The battle that goes on early in the morning on day's like this... I flip between the weather channel and the local news and cancellation lists... I keep looking out the window...(maybe hoping the snow will magically be cleared from my driveway and the storm stopped)...I usually call my sister, or she calls me and like this morning.... debate together on if I should travel from Fort Fairfield to PI...and she from PI to Caribou--- we both decided to stay home today... but if I would have been able to get out of my driveway... I most likely would have tried to go in to work... crazy??? maybe

Is anyone out there???

I've not blogged in a while... does anyone still read this?
