Hey all-I tried to mobile blog this am & it failed miserably!!! I cannot figure out WHY it keeps "wing-dinging" it for me... here I am... so this was what I WANTED to post this morning...
Good morning (afternoon now) on this rainy Friday! Since a blog is a place to share what we are pondering... here goes! I hope you're ready =) "Don't let discouragement dull your faith or procrastination steal your opportunity. You've go to decide whether you're going to accept what God has for you now and move forward OR return to 'your house'... because unfinished business can cause you to miss God's best (as can waiting for others-see John 5:70 NOTHING is more important than what God is saying and doing IN your life right now: NOT what's going on in your house, NOT the actions or opinions of others. What matters is being ready"-READY FOR WHAT GOD WANTS for you. What do you need to let go of OR leave behind in order to be ready for God's best?
There ya have it~what I am pondering today. Will you ponder with me? How do you let go of what is holding you back? Feel free to share in the comments below. I would love the tips and will gladly pray for ya!

Tears & laughter
As I sat down to check e-mail, update my facebook and maybe chat with a few friends on line this morning, one e-mail caught my eye. I had a comment on one of my blog posts. So here I am...
It was on my laughter post... something I desperately needed to be reminded of today. I've had a somewhat tough week. Not as tough as some people by any means, but tears have been shed this week for many many different reasons-all too personal to share-but heartache none the less.
In the midst of all these tears, this morning I woke up and just wanted to crawl back under the covers & stay there all day long! In fact to be totally honest I got online this morning to watch a nice depressing music video cuz I just need a really good cry. :'-(
Life is like that sometimes, last night a piece of flair on facebook struck me (one that is on my board but I had forgotten). It reads: Crying....what makes things feel better when nothing else can. How true that is! The one thing I love is that I am free to cry-I wish it was easier to do, but I think as we become wives, moms, career women we feel that we shouldn't let other people see us cry. Is it seen as a sign of weakness? Should it be seen that way? Why do we let ourselves see it that way? Am I the only person who feels this way?
I feel as though I am rambling this morning for some reason. Maybe because I am just not sure how to feel today. I still have heartache to deal with-so there is a heaviness in my heart and tears in my eyes. Yet re-reading my post on laughter makes me want to just move on. But I'm not quite sure I'm ready to laugh yet... Why is that so hard sometimes too?
The thing I am most grateful for in all of this... My Lord and My God who is forever there to let me cry, yell, scream or laugh, giggle, chuckle with Him even sometimes at Him. And never once does He walk away, stomp off in anger, forget what makes you who you are or say hurtful words back. He is there to comfort me when I need it and laugh with me when I can.
Thanks for stopping by-I love to hear from you! Hope you have a blessed day! Tears & laughter-sometimes they just go hand in hand.
