Wow, it has been 11 months since my last post. And on this Memorial Day I sit and reflect on my life and those in it. And I start where I left off in my last post "Everyone in my life is either part of my process or will be continually be on my path.... That is up to Him. Some are just seasons others help me weather the storms and are still there to stand as we feel the warmth of the sun on our faces after the storm.... Thank you all of your part!.....
Ephesians 2:8-10
God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.
A conversation about surrender and letting go and letting God, hits home when I realize in my "controlled chaos" I continually try to "control" unmanageable situations. I cannot control anything except how I act or react to something or someone. I am always reminding my kids about this when they get ticked off at each other or someone at school, especially reminded of this, this past week when Merry dealt with a "friend" being awful to her. Praying constantly and giving the situation to God helped me see his power, and the power of prayer. I pray for her each day, and give her to God. And each day someone or something happened to help her, including a random visitor on Monday morning before school to help remind her of the tools needed to make it thorough the first difficult day of the week. God is good....all the time, all the time!
Lord, please continue to give you the opportunity to do good in my life. Surrendering to your will, your way, and please continually give me your words. ~Amen
