Hebrews 12:12 So then, brace up and reinvigorate and set right your slackened and weakened and drooping hands and strengthen your feeble and palsied and tottering knees, 13And cut through and make firm and plain and smooth, straight paths for your feet [yes, make them safe and upright and happy paths that go in the right direction], so that the lame and halting [limbs] may not be put out of joint, but rather may be cured. 14Strive to live in peace with everybody and pursue that consecration and holiness without which no one will [ever] see the Lord

Thank you so much for your prayers and for sharing those scriptures with me. They are right on of course...everytime! I so appreciate your friendship!
Yeah....I've been feeling much better now that my life has kinda settled down some. I haven't been feeling as exhausted and have been trying to eat better (which is probably some of the reason for my fatigue...I eat a lot of fatty things!)
Oh and by the way, I'm reading a book by Nancy Le DeMoss (sp?) that talks about how we as women especially get too busy (volunteering at church, etc. all "good" things) but neglect our families and our homes. I love the quote that she says, "before saying "yes" to anything, you should always ask yourself if your family and your home are being taken care of properly. If the answer is no than so should your answer be no...even if it's "God's work." He first calls us women to serve in our homes, and that should always come first." I need to take this to heart more often.

I have to always be in check about that sort of thing. My first few years with the Lord, I believe I neglected Jaime. I think that her behavior is some reflection of that. However, I am not walking in condemnation. God did reveal it to me years ago, and so I am better to follow His leading about what I do for His kingdom.
Isaiah 40:29 He gives power to the faint and weary, and to him who has no might He increases strength [causing it to multiply and making it to abound].
