Though I walk through the valley of death...

My sister has been going through some things.Things I do not understand. This makes some of her actions seem odd - if not strange.
I am powerless to address anything since I know very little. I do know that our dad loves and cares for her and wishes her only the best. She, I'm afraid does not believe this. What can I say or do?!

I pray that she will be able to open up to someone trustworthy and that she can be bold enough to deal with whatever surfaces so as to come through victorious and free.

Review

At the end of a busy week it is probably a good idea to review how the week went.
Due to a lingering cough and general lack of energy the week felt awfully long.
My dad went into hospital for tests which really didn't help my state.
He seems to be okay but it is concerning that the doctors haven't figured what is wrong - even after all those tests!!


I have decided to take one day at a time since I seriously cannot handle any more at the moment..


I survived the week but I definitely did not see or maximize opportunities  to speak about Him.
What a waste!


I pray I feel 100% and that  can change this trend!

Though the sorrow may last thru the night..

... His joy comes in the morning!


Just as the sun rises each day His mercies and grace are new and sufficient for that day.
Thank You Lord for giving us this life every day.

Bittersweet

Now there is an oxymoron for you - bittersweet. It seems as though everything these days has that bittersweet quality about it..


Take today for example. A beautiful day for a beautiful wedding. The bride looked stunning. The groom suitably nervous and dapper. What a celebration! (sweet)


The (bitter) pill to swallow is that I have never loved in that way and if things carry on like they have -
 I never will.
Maybe some of us are just not meant to get married.


Either way it was a lovely day marred by a short time of self-pity and an embarrassing exit from the church gardens. Everything seemed to overwhelm me. The fact that I haven't been physically well all week didn't help. But - it was more than that. A deep sense of rejection and of being  overlooked grabbed me and I just had to get out of there! I hate it when I loose it since I tend to do a good job of it! Thankfully I took a deep breathe and managed to pull my self together to return and later enjoy the reception.(Thanks to Lauren's coaxing)


They say God knows the right man, time and place. I so wish he would show me even 1 of these mysteries.
If  it is not to be I'd appreciate a clear sign for that too!
