as long as there is breath in my body...

Good morning and happy Saturday, I guess you could say I am "on one today", feeling really down and just a titch disappointed! I am not one to get down often, but it seems as of late my emotions have been all over the place, I pray, pray, pray for peace and for the most part I am able to find my place, I am able to turn the negative into positive and I am able to focus on others and their needs and lay mine to rest. Today I have not found my place yet and am really feeling chewed up and spit out....I just don't understand how a person can work hard, be honest to a fault, give one hundred percent while on the clock and still the one who is cheating the system comes out the victor. I don't understand how people make it in this world these days. We do not spend money frivolously, we do not live beyond our means, we pay our bills and have nothing left and when hours are cut like ours have been we find side jobs...but you have to have gas in your vehicle to go to said side job and to your regular job. Wayde's entire check this week went to bills, we did not even have enough left over for gas nor groceries. I can do without a few meals but we have to have gas to get us to and from work. grrrrr, grrrrr, and grrrr, again.

Okay I am sure you can best my mood, I am sure you are going through much the same as us, maybe not the same scenario but I am sure there are spiders in your web as well. Thank you for letting me vent, I might get down but I will never give up. To many times I have seen God, like a knight on a white steed, come in the last and final hour and scoop us up and take us to safety and I am standing and believing that he too will do this now. I will not be defeated, maybe beaten but not killed, and as long as there is breath in my body...there is hope!!!

In prayer this morning I asked God to bless each of you with your needs, to provide for you enough to bring you through your storm and to let you land gently on the shore with stronger knowledge that all things a possible through HIM. I asked for special blessings for the sweet baby we have been praying for that there will be a definite change in his mommy's health, that the doctors will be filled with more hope than they have been for her "wake up" and for this baby to feel the love of the multitudes who are praying for them. I asked special blessings for all who are struggling with health, finances, relationships, and addictions this morning, that God might cast a light that has otherwise been darkness, that God will give them hope where there has been none, that God would wrap his loving arms around each of us and cover us with his very robes to give us warmth and allow us to feel the Holy Spirit. Father God I come to you on bended knees this very day asking for blessings, favor, mercy and grace that only you can give. In the name of Jesus  Christ I pray. Amen. 

May your day be filled with hope, may your face be covered with a smile, and my your heart feel my love being sent out to you.
