I love that idea and I loved your prayer. I'll put my prayers in agreement with it so you can have double blessings and know what/when/how/where to spend and spend it to benefit the most from it. *hugs*

Well, what is really crazy, but NOT really because I know how awesome God can be is that I got a call from my sister very shortly after that post. I will have my money by the first of the week as soon as her check clears MY bank ! She was even nice enough to deposit it for me. YAHOO ! I wasn't as thrilled that I spent so much on my car this past fall since I have taxes to pay on my whole sum out of what I get. But, it is still a decent amt. and it came at the right time. HOORAY !

Now, does anyone have any idea at what % taxable income ihheritance is? I don't mean the portion that is on the estate itself but the portion that is my income.

OOOH did I 'forget' to thank you for the prayers ????? I am really sorry. Thanks so much Laura.

Love and hugs,

I will be frank and tell you that I know I need to nurture my spirituality. It used to be very strong and a great source of fortitude and humility for me but somewhere along the way I drifted from it. I feel an amazing resentment towards God. I know it shouldn't be there but I feel it just the same.

I am glad to hear that you will be posting your conversations to God. I would like to read them and maybe something will strike a chord within me and I can feel centered again. As much as I try to, it eludes me.

I hope I haven't offended you by this comment. I look forward to your posts and hope your words to Him might mean something to me sometime.

Hey there,

No offense taken. I think everyone feels that way from time to time. I certainly did. I can honestly say that it was not a building (church) that got me back on track, but a new respect for how I see my higher power whom I choose to call God. He isn't very different than the one I knew growing up other than he isn't all fire and brimstone from my rather strong religious upbringing but rather more forgiving and loving the way I believe he ought to be seen. A true heart can be seen.

Love,

Aly

I like your GOD notes a lot better than getting a gazillion e-mails telling me to pray or else I will be doomed!!

Really ... they are lovely ... and right now ...

Dear God ... I need help. Please give me the wisdom to know when and when not to say NO!!! Everyone is making demands on my time and when I say NO I feel guilty.

Love
Paula

PS ... I heard your answer already about knowing when to say NO ... WWJD? GOT IT!!! ... OK ... byt I'm still having trouble with the guilt ....

stlctyaly December 15 2007, 15:37:21 UTC

No, can be a hard word to learn how and when to use. I am getting a lot better at it. I found that more than guilt I was afraid of hearing other people complain and would just cave. No more. I am important too. What works for me is telling someone I have to think about it for a while. I then pray, think, meditate and let it go. The right answer always shows up.

I will love reading your conversations with God. I'm sure I'll be blessed by them. I pray that the Lord blesses you as you draw near to Him.

((((hugs))))
