Look What Was Waiting For Me When I Got Home...





...are they not BEAUTIFUL! I needed these so much. I have had the week from Hell last week. I had to make a personal and difficult confession to my manager and assistant manager at work. I had to apologize to a co-worker. I basically puffed myself up like a blowfish and had to wiggle like a worm. I have felt rotten about myself this week, and what I've realized is that every relationship I have ever had where I have cared for them in any amount I have hurt them is some form or fashion by my judgement. I am a judgemental person, God help me! I am! I totally react before I think it through, and taking it to God...please! It really kind of scared me look back on past co-depent relationships, relationships that I destroyed, relationships I could have destroyed but because this person loves me for who I am loved me enough anyway to say I'm sticking this through...I'm scared for Monday and what it will bring. I don't want things to be changed between these individuals and me, but somehow they already are...

...me and God had a conversation, well I talked He listened on the matter today...I'm rambling because that's me, but I just ask all of you to keep me in my prayers...I am smart, funny, pretty, and nice...I promise :) Just not always that good!

Edee, the person who sent me the flowers, is such my tether(msp?)...she holds me to the truth and encourages me in ways that maybe even a really close friend couldn't...her and God have a special connection concerning me. These couldn't have come at a better time!

I love you all dearly! Later!

They are indeed very beautiful flowers. Sometimes I read your post and it's like something I would say:) I too am guilty, but I'm learning and growing and it's ok.

Praying for you always!

Melissa, what a beautiful gift from a beautiful friend! And, at just the right time!

It's wonderful how the dear Lord puts those "tethers" in our life, isn't it?

If I remember correctly your last day at work is quickly approaching...I'm excited for you.

And, by your apologizing to your boss and co-workers, allows God even more freedom to work greater wonders. Remember He uses our errors also, to further His kingdom.

Let Me Share My Narrative With You (His Testimony!)

Well guys! Here it is! My testimony, or His testimony in my life! It is quite long...sorry...but I've divided it up in sections so hopefully it will make it easier to read. I hope that you will see Him fully reflected in this and that what ever ounce of me resides will be taken out I know this is long in coming, but I hope you enjoy.... Lord Father, this testimony is truly a testimony of You…it is not about me… What a deep and beautiful gift to be intimately known by the Creator of the Universe…let me share a narrative with you, a true love story if you will…let me share with you the moment the Lover of my soul captured my heart leaving me forever changed. I was born August 27, 1980 in Rome Georgia. I grew up Southern Baptist with a caring Mom and Dad and two amazing younger sisters that mean more to me than words can express. I was a very awkward child and struggled in my formative years with very low self-esteem and lack of self identity! Since I can’t take you through every sing...

Rantings of a Mad Woman!!!

I'm doing this is dark purple...oh yeah, cause I'm cool like that. I have so much running through my head right now that "Rantings of a Mad Woman" is the ONLY way I can share what I'm thinking. I have no idea where this post is going, but just please bear with me as I try to get through it. I spent the evening with Kat...sorry Gayla we forgot our cameras...next time! You know what she told me...that I'm INSINCERE...now before you go getting all bent out of shape it wasn't anything like a comfortation, in fact it was the most loving and truthful display of love and honesty that I've experienced in my life in a long time. She was just like Melissa when I first met you I felt like you got bored with me and the situation around you and I felt you were insincere in some of your actions. Well, she didn't know because I hadn't shared with her that this is one of the biggest things I've been struggling with in my Christian walk as of late...living ...
