Newsflash: new motto installed, edited
I've been going over some stuff lately.... It's been hard and I haven't had much creative energy left for blogging.
But just to keep some of you dear ones in the loop: Here are my results.. if you like.
My struggle... has been with depression,
disappointment with life
(no matter how idyllic, it never turns out the way one visualizes),
change of life and hormones (ick!)
and with aloneness (even in the midst of many)!!
My conclusion...
Because God's gift of life depends solely on Himself,
His power to redeem, His grace to forgive us, and His energy to fulfill our lives,
I can say He is always and only Enough. And I can say that
He will hold on to us, even when we feel like giving up. PTL
My new motto for life...
Micah 6:8
Do what is right,
Pursue kindness,
Walk humbly with your God.Blessings!!
Edit: A love song that means a lot to me!!

You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Love Switchfoot.
Great motto.
love and hugs.
Keep the Faith... He WILL be with you...
That is an excellent motto!
I'm so sorry that you are going through this
Blessings to you too. When I feel down I like to read Psalms. I'm sure that David battled depression.
Interestingly enough, Micah 6:8 is the verse which speaks most to me out of the entire Bible.
(hugs)
nothing ever turns out like I want 90% but when I wake in the mornings I thank God for seeing me safely through another nite and at least I can still get vertical and I'm still breathing and some days that's all I can say...I always try to look for the good in my days, even when it is a really down day like going through the pictures in the trunk, they are all sorted in their seperate piles now and back in the trunk...I cannot deal with it even yet...so I pull away from things that get me down...I like your new motto...it is a good one...smile
You always post the good songs, songs that I have forgotten over time. Good to remember them again. He is all we need, and He is always with us. I do wish we could feel his arms around us more often, but he send hugs in other ways. ((((hugs)))))
