Wow, can’t believe it’s been 6 months since I have posted to my blog! Sometimes life just doesn’t allow for things that you find commonplace in other settings of life. Reading back over my last post, I find that my battles today have taken on a somewhat different form, but are still there nonetheless. I have made great strides walking into a new place of rest in the middle of the storm. It doesn’t come easy, but it does come if we keep seeking. I am thankful today for the knowing that every day of my life is for a positive purpose in my shaping, both good and bad days. I learn something from every one and I take a few more steps toward that mark of the prize of the high calling…that Christ is truly formed in me. My joy is beginning to rise again. These last two years have been the toughest of my life, but that’s o.k., because the wisdom I have gained from them is embedded deep within my soul. I have reached a point that now I can begin putting my thoughts and inspirations on paper, so I hope by this time next year I will have some powerful volumes of wisdom to share with the world. I am thankful for true family, true friends and the ever-present love of the Father. Please pray with me for three little girls in my life. There is a prayer chain at 3:30 every afternoon that lifts them up, please join us if you can. Blessings to you as you travel your journey. I pray great wisdom and insight for you as well. ~Rita
