A little trouble...

This really hasn't been a very good week. Or a very good few weeks.

There are lots of things going on in my mind today, none of which should really be discussed via the internet. But one of the biggest things weighing down on me actually has to do with God's people. I've been hugely disappointed and embarrassed by the way some people are acting about things going on in the world. Someone almost convinced me that I should be worried or scared, and that maybe my "moral values" are being compromised. I really struggled with this. I honestly prayed and asked that God put nervousness or discomfort in my heart if it was how I should feel (dumb, right?) But, go figure, He never did. So instead I have begun to pray that the same comfort and peace that I feel - the same trust and faith I have in this huge, mighty God - would take over the feelings of fear and doubt in God's people. We have not been given a spirit of fear, right?

On a lighter note, one of the highlights of my life so far is getting to be married to the most level-headed, honest, and godly man that I have ever met. I can't imagine anyone being a better spiritual leader ( though I know there are more, ladies. isn't this how we all feel about our men :) I can't believe that the guy I started dating when I was 16, would be the man I would grow old with! How could I ever be more blessed?

Ouch...

So not being able to walk really isn't on my list of things to do! Stupid Wii Fit hula hoop. Though said Wii Fit did tell me I lost 2 more pounds, I still could do without the leg/butt spasms! The hubby is out getting my medication as we speak, so I'll be much better soon!

Larry Don and I are trying to make some big decisions. I think that's all our marriage has been - one big bag of decision making. Sometimes I wish God wouldn't give us other options! Though I know that's a little bit silly. Christianity, and life in general, is full of options. It would be nice if God would spell out the answers for us, though! I keep opening my Bible, hoping to see the answer right there. The funny thing is, all I keep seeing is this funny word - "faith." Last night, I opened up to: "Through Christ you have come to trust in God. And because God raised Christ from the dead and gave him great glory, your faith and hope can be placed confidently in God." 1 Peter 1:21

Hmm...okay God. I will trust in You.
