Wow! I have been so busy lately. I have not had time to write. There is so much going on, but at the same time I feel like I'm getting nothing done. Even though I am. There has been allot of outside distractions, and some confusion setting in along with some stress. I know none of this is from God. I have been trying to stay full of Word and praise and worship. Still no release. The phrase keeps going through my mind... "what are you building". I have no answer. I try to see the outcome of what I am doing ... but I'm not real sure where it is all heading right now. I feel like there is something I'm missing. I'm praying and seeking God. But there has been so many distractions, that I cant seem to be still long enough to hear Him. That is my prayer today above everything else, is that I can be still to hear Him and to hear Him clearly. I really need to. So 'What am I building today". Strength and wisdom to know where to start in the building process. It all goes back to prayer and being quite. Thank you Lord for that gentle reminder.

I hope sharing my thoughts will hit home with whoever reads this and is a reminder that you are not alone, no matter how busy, or how many distractions there are in life. But most of all that you are not the only one who fights these things in life. We are all human and have daily struggles no matter how big or how small. But God is still there just waiting for us to be quite and listen.

Jeanie, without you.... where or how would we have turned out? Don't even want to think about all of that. You have been a major building block in our lives. I look at where God is taking the girls right now and I'm amazed that Scott & I had something so wonderful to do with them.. but without you checking Scott out first ( you had my back).. and then talking me into giving him a chance... wow! Yes you do and always will hold a specail place in our lives!!
