I’m feeling out of sorts right now. Misunderstandings, mind games, breakdown in communication – it all bugs me. I hate it when it happens. I spend my time trying to figure out why I reacted the way I did or why the other person reacted the way they did – sometimes (perhaps most times) I overanalyse way too much. I want to learn from my experiences, but there is also […] Read More
It is so hard when the dreams I cling to are exposed. I’d like to think I’ve got everything submitted to God (all the important stuff anyway), but I don’t. I have imagined things would happen in a certain way and when faced with the reality that they may or may not happen, I feel torn apart inside. I so badly want to see those dreams come true. Surrendering my […] Read More
I read this in an article a friend emailed to me. It definitely rings true with the cry of my heart. “Worship is about a cry of the heart, not a slick production. Worship is about me coming to God and pouring out my guts, it’s not about having the latest sound or a hot new song. Worship is about receiving forgiveness and healing when I confess my sin and […] Read More
…I’ll be getting married. Wow!
“…we are no longer to be children, tossed here and there by waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine…” Ephesians 4:14 (NASB) A few weeks ago, a group of us took a look at Ephesians 4. We were studying how the body of Christ functions; what it looks like in the passage. When we came across verse 14, the phrase “carried about by every wind of doctrine” really […] Read More
Bare with me here. I’m going to try to use an analogy that popped into my head the other day about what I’ve been experiencing. Let’s say ‘the bus’ is a group of people who all meet together in the same church building once a week – a congregation of a particular church. Some of those people are on ‘the bus’ 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Each […] Read More
My sister’s wedding was yesterday. It was a long day, stressful at times (like trying to get to the church on time), but overall it was really good. I’m happy for my sister. Curtis (her husband) is a nice guy. It felt kind of wierd when he called me ‘sis’ but I’ll get used to that. My boys handed out bubbles and did really well during the ceremony and reception. […] Read More
Long day. Too tired to blog. There! News about me. 🙂
Sarah is now blogging at carebearsunshine.blogspot.com. I’m beginning to see more and more the benefits of blogging. My life has been so crazy lately I realized that I really haven’t spent very much time with my friends in the last while. It’s not that I wouldn’t want to, but other things seem to have crowded in. As most of my friends have now joined the blogging world, I can read […] Read More
“The very future of our country, and of our children and grandchildren, literally depends on whether we can preserve traditional marriage and the natural family in Canada.” – quote from Defend Marriage, Canada! Newsletter in reference to legislation legalizing same-sex marriages. I am not in favor of same-sex marriages. But this quote stood out to me. Is this really a true statement? What does the future of our country truly […] Read More
