W...I...L...T...I...N...G...

Many days I feel like I am wilting where I'm planted.

All I can smell is fertilizer rather than the flower...the dung instead of the daffodil...the crap instead of the chrysanthemum...you get the idea!

A dear friend sent me a copy of "Jesus Calling" by Sarah Young. It's written as if Jesus himself were actually speaking the words directly to you, and most days I find it right on!

Two days ago it spoke about swimming upstream against the current of [God's] purposes. Yesterday talked about letting circumstances toss you this way and that.

Why is it so hard to trust when you grow up? I don't remember having trust issues as a kid. Now I have them all the time.

  1. Sorry it takes me so long to respond, but I am on vacation and catching up with correspondence! ...and I guess I have an idea...we have difficulty trusting because we have been disappointed along the way, never from God though! With that in mind, we need to snap out of it, let Him handle things.

    I'm sure this is way to late, but I need it now!

    God bless you sister and keep the blog going.
