And
he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is
made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I
rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest
upon me.
I
am not a super Christian I fail daily. I am not a super Daughter, I
have done things that have hurt my parents
I
am not a super women, or a super wife, or super mom. I get tired, I
get discouraged and I cry out to God or yell or scream. My life
certainly would not be a fairy tale as you would imagine one but I
will live happily ever after.
I
am clay pot who was carefully made by a potter, but life has torn,
cracked and chip me but my spirit is happy, my spirit is whole.
Christ lives in me. So when you say I am a woman of strength what
you are actually telling me is that you can see Christ living in me,
because He is my strength.
I
do not know why God chose me for this journey. He has broken me and
put me back together so many times. He has washed my eyes with tears
and cleared my vision and showed me the right path. I wish I could
say I always listened. He has brought me to my knees. He has laid
me flat on my back where the only place I had to look was up to Him.
Psalms 23 He maketh me to lie down in
green pastures:
My
God has been my friend since a young child, who would swing and sing
to Him underneath a star light sky, to now as a women of 50, He is
the rock I lean on and my God is our
refuge and strength, a very present help in
trouble. Psalms 46:1.
There
are things I went through that I thought were severe storms or
battles in my life. As I look back as see that they where merely
“boot camps” preparing me for bigger battles.
If
we don't learn and help some others along the way, to keep them from
making the same mistakes, then all the pain was for naught. I will
try my best to take you through a journey of ups and downs, peaks and
valleys that is my life. Not all in order but as God leads and
brings them to my remembrance.
