Simply Put

I am at work today. I am a police/911 dispatcher. I don't know what I was thinking when I took this shift. I DON'T work Sunday morning; I want to go to church. Sigh, oh well. So before I left, I said prayer with my friend Alicia and her son Sean. They are missing church also to watch my son Liam. Anyway, I prayed, then Alicia did and she asked Sean if he wanted to say a prayer. Very solemnly, he said, "Yes. God please help us with this day, Amen." I think that is just about covers it!

Allow Myself to Introduce....Myself

I really want to be a good Christian. I want to know Jesus and have a strong relationship with him. God has given me so many gifts and blessings. All my life the path has always been so wonderful and blessed and yet sometimes, I still get impatient. I still just don't have the patience, or I don't "get it." Therefore, sometimes God seems to need to make it overly obvious with me. That's when I need Him to "smack me upside the head" with it, and He does. I love it. I am trying to learn to walk the walk, not just talk the talk. I don't claim to have all the answers, but I know where to find them. This is my journey and you are welcome to come along.
