The week from the "hot place"

Have you ever had one of those weeks when nothing goes right? The kind of week that makes you ask what in the H*** am I doing and why am I doing it? Well that is exactly the kind of week I had this past week and I ALMOST let it get the best of me. I put the financial stuff, the stress of being employed by a church, and the day to day grind of being a single mom ahead of all of my blessings. You are probably saying with that list what on earth could be your blessings. Well I am here to tell you I have a lot to be thankful for I have the two most amazing kids in the world. I have a job I love that I don't have to leave my children with a babysitter to go and do. BUT the biggest blessing of all is the person I became going thru this divorce. When you hit rock bottom in your marriage and you realize that you are going to lose the person you stood before EVERYONE and vowed to love till you die, you begin to do some reassessing in your life. For me that was the AHA HA moment I did not like the person I was, I did not depend enough on my faith in God, I was selfish and was only out for me. You know what? I am not that person anymore I might not be as well off financially BUT spiritually I am so full. I finally realize I can do all things thru CHRIST and without Christ I am worthless to myself, my children, and the church I serve. So you see Tyler did me a favor thru all the turmoil I learned to depend on God and that's the biggest blessing of all.

Be Blessed
