Isaiah 48:17

This is what the Lord says-your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: "I am the Lord your God, who teaches you what is best for you, who directs you in the way you shoud go."

Detour!!!

Well, it has been some time now and all I can say is "We have moved again!"  Yes, nuts, crazy, out of our minds....I am too old for this moving stuff.  This is the house that we started from three years ago and I hope that we have learned something while making a complete circle.  There is a lot going on outside of the move and I have to remember to stay rooted and grounded in Christ or I get angry, sad, depressed, frustrated, or fearful very quickly. 

I have been thinking that maybe I should change the name of my blog, since I really don't always make a good "Road Sign to Christ".  But, if I keep up with the blog, maybe instead of trying to be a road sign, I can start to see how God directs my life and  uses it as a road sign, or NOT!  "To be or not to be?  That is the question." 

I will close for now by asking for prayer for a friend of mine, Cindy.  She has terminal cancer and has not been given much time.  I have only known her for a few months, but am grateful that the Lord brought her into my life.  We just had a Celebration of Life party for her this past weekend and it was great to see so many people from her life celebrate with her while she is still here with us.  She is strong in Christ, extremely humble, and brave.  I cannot complain much about anything knowing what Cindy is dealing with everyday.  I pray that she is strengthened when she is weak, that she is given peace when she is fearful, and that she is loved while she is with us.

Hopefully, I will be blogging more often, (since we are 7 weeks from finishing school) so I can look back and reflect on God's grace, mercy, love and kindness in my life.
