Today is Thursday, May 14 and I haven't opened the book (yet). I do want to say that last night was a lousy night for me - and really, the last 7, 10, 15 days have been pretty yucky. In everything. Lots of work, not enough church or prayer or Bible reading. Too much bad food, too much alcohol, not enough exercise (if any) and certainly NOT enough QT with Doug... I'm miserable. I had mini breakdowns on Tues and on Wed. And again this morning. BUT, I'm determined to turn things around - starting with my 'healthy' breakfast of cottage cheese and a small coffee.
So now... I'll open Amy's book...
Psalm 78, v53 & v72 about God leading and guiding. She writes that God is a God of Hope, a God of Joy, and He will lead us with discernment and HOPE.
I need (and will try) to return my trust to the Lord!!!
Julie, I just read your post, and I can certainly identify.
But thank you for the nice dinner at your place on Sunday evening---I think it was just what the doctor ordered for me!
Although I do like cottage cheese for breakfast, sprinkled with a few walnuts, I am afraid I would have to opt for at least a medium coffee.
I have been reading about the lives of various saints, and they seem to have something in common---counter culture ideas.....and of course, a deep desire and need for lots of prayer which requires solitude. Sorry about your breakdowns. I didn't know you were in a bad spot. Call me!
