Between

Posted By Tammie on May 4, 2010

Have you ever had something weighing on your heart that just won’t lift?  That has been me this past week.  Today I realized it has been my neglectfulness.  I cannot believe it has been so long since I have posted.  I am so sorry to be away for so long. Will you forgive me?

Life seems to be zooming by like my sewing machine on the high-speed setting (which, I might say has not been used recently either).  Spring has sprung and the flowers are so beautiful.  Everything is green outside my new bay window, and of course the dandelions are in full bloom too.  Enough to make dandelion soup (I keep threatening my youngest).  Who, by the way turned 17 years old in April.  My Nicholas is 17, the baby…my “Forever Five” child.  It amazes me.

God has been working in my life too and I hope in yours.  Strength is rising as I seek new directions in ministry, listen longer and harder for His direction and put into action those things that He has been telling me.  His strength is perfect every time.  God continues to etch new directions onto my heart, a phrase, a scripture verse, a thought.  He tells me that someone needs an extra prayer today, someone I haven’t thought of in years.  He reminds me that He’s in control…thank goodness, because I would just mess it up.  I’ve taken my hands off the steering wheel and pray daily that I don’t take it back.

I have only three more weeks in this semester at school.  Looking forward to a break and some summer fun and relaxation.  I hope I find time to be creative in my writing and quilting because in that I usually have the quiet to hear Him speak, and that never fails.

For now, dear friends, enjoy the sights and sounds of spring.  Enjoy the beauty of nature and the wonder it brings.  Enjoy the grace of God and may He bring peace to your heart overflowing.♥
