I am not a fan of Baseball. Sorry didn't mean to confuse you. But I was thinking about what is going on right now with our life. And I was looking at my blog and the header and I realized that I was thinking that God has given us a curve ball.
At the beginning of the year I posted that I wanted to dedicate this blog to serving God. I want to write things that are an encouragement to you. I want to post photo's and review books that are uplifting and encouraging or entertaining in a healthy way.
I want to share my life and my Home. And so I dedicated this year to the year of the house. My plan was to keep photo's of my house up and change my background when I get a whim. (I intended to do a Valentine background but I was sick for a couple of weeks and didn't get much done around here. )
Now with the curve ball of having to move I am confused and frustrated. I am anxious.
But I am leaning on and trusting God's word.
He says ". . . For my thoughts are not your thoughts . . . my ways are higher than your ways." Isaiah 55:8&9(paraphrased)
I Trust
He also says ". . . The Lord your God is with you, (even in the storm of life or when you receive a curve ball) he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing." Zephaniah 3:17.
I seek his love to quiet my spirit. I seek his delight.
I pray that all that I do and all that I am is a delight to my heavenly father. I listen to hear his singing.
And as confusion, fear and frustration sets in I lean on these words more and more
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding but; in all your ways acknowledge him and he will make your paths straight." I pray for a straight path.
I pray God will reveal his plan his short term plan for our lives.
Have you receive a few curve balls recently? Are you going through a storm and your wondering where God is in all this? Well he is where he always is right in the middle sometimes he calms the storm and sometimes he calms the child.
I am his child and I am calm. And he fills me with Joy

Amen, beautifully said.
Just what I needed to hear today. So many storms going on around me, in the lives of people that I LOVE and I am a "fixer." I always think I can take care of everything. I can't. But I know Someone Who Can!!! Thank God He is the calmer of life's storms! Thanks for the reminder.
I think trust within the curves and transitions is what helps us know whose child we really are and to fervently seek, hold on to, and live in light of our Father's true loving character. At least I hope to do so. Thank you for the honesty that we all need and the encouragement to trust.
I'm so glad you stopped by my blog for a visit. Both of your blogs are lovely.
Just continue to pray and trust that when the time is right, God will reveal what it is you're supposed to do.
Hi Everybody,
I've been trying to figure out a place to start with the Acai Berry free trial and was just wondering if anybody had any opinions on whether or not the stuff works for weight loss? So far this is the only [url=http://acaiberries.zoomblog.com/]article[/url] I've been able to read online that seemed real for what my goals are. Thoughts?
