This blog is back with more truth pounding words!

It's been awhile. And with staying at home now some days I find I would rather sit down and write then get daily chores finished and better yet, I'd rather write then scroll through Facebook reading what other people are up to. I enjoy Facebook, mostly because I have so many close friends away and mostly I enjoy it for my family. But it seems it's another thing added to this world that can poison you.
  How many hours do you spend wondering what other people are up to that are not really part of your daily life except for this online world? Do you find yourself comparing what you have to what they have? Facebook can be a great tool but it can always pull you into a closed up path.                                                              But enough about that. I don't have things to vent about now with work but I have a lot to talk about and share with this journey I've been on with a new baby and a very very sick brother who means the world to me.  If you have been faced with a very close family member experiencing physical and spiritual battle wounds, who wants so badly to fight but their body won't let them, then you will be able to relate. And even if you have not God ties all our experiences into a way they can relate to you.
 The ONLY way I can wake up each morning with a smile on my face is because of God. And maybe that doesn't make total sense to you or maybe you don't really understand what a REAL relationship with God is like, but maybe you'll join me on this journey and agree with some things, see things in a new light and get a good laugh or cry and see that believing in God, committing to be in a relationship with him is not so different from our relationships here in this life with others.                                                                                            
So there it is, my introduction. Now from here on out I can get into the deep stuff, the good stuff, heartbreaking and joyous paths.  So for today I'll end with this.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                "A gentle tongue ( with its healing power) is a tree of life." Proverbs 15:4.
Maybe you'll meet me back here tomorrow.
