Oh Suz...thanks for the reminder and great video to back it up! I have been delibrately resting in God's hands for quite some time... with the moving and His provisions with a job, housing, friends, etc. and I am continually amazed at how He cares even for the details and grants me peace in the midst of limbo. I get teary just thinking of the journey thus far. But I'm sorry if I ever get you off track by my desire to help you in areas of decor. I will be praying for you if you will be praying for us in our quest for a home and God's will in all areas of our lives. I love you my dear friend! Now let's get you on skype!!!!! ~Jodi

Susan, thank you for being so honest. God never ceases to clearly show me the areas of weakness in my life. God never promised us that we would live an easy life after choosing to follow Jesus. We face the same temptations of life as a believer, but we have God's Spirit there to help us navigate through them. Again, thanks for sharing. It inspires me to think on the idols in my life and how I need to let them go.

How easily we can lose focus. Thankfully, He keeps speaking to us and wooing us back. Praise the Lord and His Holy Spirit that we hear. The Lord certainly spoke to me today through your blog!

Thank you!

It's amazing how God uses events to poke you in the brain and go "Hey! Pay attention to me! You don't need this!"

I've sent many prayers out for all of you.

Dearest Susan!
Thank you so much for your care and concern, prayers and friendship!

Keep your eyes firmly focused on Christ and you will have the desires of your heart! How's that coming from a woman whose husband has deserted her!?! The thing is that through this journey, and through clinging to Him, my desires have changed. You think you've got idols??? I've had idols. One of the worst: another person! Unfortunately, it took this drastic situation for me to recognize my state. God is soooo good. I know it. Marsha knows it. And you know it!

You are so talented and have such lovely girls. Just keep on glorifying the Lord! You are a blessing!! You are one of the few that has kept up with me during these many months and IT MATTERS! Thank you! Many blessings to you today! :)

Your friend in Christ,
Melissa

PS DON'T you DARE say we may never meet! I rebuke that!! :)
