Pity Party of one…
Pour out your hearts like water to the Lord. Lift up your hands to him in prayer-
Lamentations 2:19
Good morning. What a week. Whew.
Since writing is therapy to me, here goes.
God is good.
God is good.
God is good.
God is good.
Sometimes, many times, I have to just say those words over and over until they sink in.
His Ways are Higher…
Happy Thursday, sweet Rise and Shine friends!
Would you mind if I shared a little bit of my story with you?
As I am reading in God’s Word about the Israelites and idol worship and discontentment among the camp, I am reminded of areas of my own life that have mirrored our ancient Israelite ancestors.
For many years, I have desired more children. I envisioned a house full of kids with bookbags and toys and bedtime prayers rolled into a full and crazy day.
Don't get me wrong, my two children are huge blessings. However, I desired to mother more. I love mothering so much that I thought contentment would come if I had more children to love.
Good morning, Rise and Shine friends!
Seriously, I am on a roll with writing.
I am really trying to write more…because you know the old saying…”use it or lose it!”
So, here we are. :)

Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you.
Show me the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul. Rescue me from my enemies, O LORD, for I hide myself in you. Teach me to do your will, for you are my God; may your good Spirit lead me on level ground.
— psalm 143:8
