Good morning, Lord. Another birthday. Thank you for giving me these 28 years of life.

I'm still in bed. Jeff and Cammie arranged so I could sleep in. The fan is blowing, and the sheets are smooth and warm, and I just noticed that there are pretty pink flowers on the bathroom windowsill. :)

I want to reflect on the past and look forward as I ( Read more... )

My husband never pursues me and could care less if I am around, and it makes me feel worthless.

He chose eating in the office and watching youtube over a date night with me. And then he yelled at me for being hurt.

Lord, I am very frustrated and tired. I am just tired of dealing with the never-ending drama with Jeff's job. I am angry at all of his superiors for being so illogical and mean, and I am even angry at him sometimes for fighting so hard. Why can NO ONE just be humble?? Why is everyone so obsessed with being right ( Read more... )

Good morning, Lord. I just want to say thank you for opening the door for me to get my photography business going. Though my faith is a bit shaky these days, I'm choosing to see the fruitfulness I've experienced in these starting weeks as Providence. Thank you for equipping me and for providing clients. I have been so encouraged these past couple ( Read more... )

Good morning, Lord. What a beautiful morning. I feel good. A nice jog with Bo, a chai latte, and the laptop on the front stoop in the shade and breeze before the sun shifts around. It smells fresh and warm and alive out here ( Read more... )

Hey Lord. :) Thank you for a string of beautiful moments today. I am sitting at Starbucks feeling a miraculous breeze and watching a baby bird (maybe a nuthatch?) flutter impatiently while its momma desperately gathers tidbits of food from cracks in the sidewalk. I can relate -- my own baby bird shares the same persistent fluttering impatience.

Hey Lord. Forgive me for my expression of hate. Forgive me for sending those negative vibrations rippling out into eternity.

I've been reading the Genesis trilogy by Madeleine L'Engle, and I think it is the right book for this season of my life. Thank you for your hand in that; I will choose to see that as your Providence. L'Engle emphasizes again ( Read more... )
