The sign on the door

What is the true test? When is it time to hang the sign on the door?
Is this the ending or a new beginning. Is this the tired writer trying to fit too much information into the last chapter before beginning a new one.

I am tired. I am on a roller coaster.
Some days start happy with a chance of joy.
Other seem gloomy with a chance of heartbreak.

Oh Dearest God, relieve me of this please bring back the focus and the ability to see good and happying things. Things of good cheer and success. I lay it all in your hand my most Holy Lord, Amen.

Observations and Distraction

As each of walks along this road of life, there seem to be many obstactles that we can encounter.

My obstacles are my own thoughts, sometimes the actions/inaction of others and then of course there are the traps of the devil.

I often get irritated when I have to revisit issues that I think are resolved. I think I am going on a trip to Stony Point or Albany at the end of October. Then I get an e-mail that makes it seem like I am mistaken. My disappointment of suddenly being put in the position of not going after I thought it was confirmed is quite severe. But, thankfully as I reassess my emotions and take a few minutes to describe them, I am freed from the limitations they can impose and I am able to embrace what other wonderful things God may have for me.

To God be the glory.

Brand New Day

Thanks to God, I am alive. I am smiling because I am also blessed!
My daughter called as soon as she awoke and I found out that I am getting a raise. Yes!!!!

Not every day is a good day, but I can remember to be positive and look for strength in God every day.
