too long….

it’s been way too long since i posted last.  and can i tell you that life has been a crazy whirwind of events?  they wouldn’t even make sense if i tried to post them all.  bottom line is God’s doing some odd things in my life and i am not sure what they mean or what i am supposed to do with it all.  and i keep trying to lose this stupid baby weight and i’m having a real hard time! i do have to say that i’m not really sure where my spirituality is these days.  i know a while ago i posted about being jealous of the apostles and wanting to be able to be with the Lord in person.  i realized that my desire was so strong that it stirs up intense emotions inside and reduces me to tears.  with everything going on right now, i just want to be with Him for a hug, a smile and to hear the words “i love you, everything is going to be fine”.  i mean, things are great right now, i do have a great life, but there is some uncertainty and some wonder, am i doing the right thing? am i being a good mom?  am i supportive enough?  i do enjoy reading the gospels and i have started doing that lately and the insights that i have meditated on lately have been things i have never noticed before.  like how many of the people jesus healed, sought HIM out, he didn’t seekthem out.  you always hear the stories of the sinful woman, the hemorrhaging woman, the paralytic man, etc, but you focus on the miracles that jesus performed, not the amazing faith it took people to humble themselves and say “if you want to, you can heal me”.  i was so moved by these thoughts that michael made last sunday’s session at st. anne about them and i got to write it and make up discussion questions.

anywho, i don’t really have a conclusion or a tie in for all of these things.  that’s just what’s been in my head lately.

I’m jealous

Patience

So I learned today from two parents of one of the children in my class that patience is the key to everything.  They asked me to continue to have patience with their child who is struggling in my class and to give her time.  I didn't realized how impatient I ...
