Unforseen challenges

I usually post on Tuesday.  This week I was busy and I forgot.  I have encountered some challenging situation this week.  One thing I have found out is sometimes unless a item that is lost has some distiguishing marks or items attached to it you can not recover it.  I thought of our walk as Christians can others tell us apart from the world around us.  Do we have distinguishing marks or charactariztics that set us apart and allow us to be identified.  I can replace the item that was lost it will cost me some time and money.  Sometimes our walk with God is the same.  We may experience a trial that causes us to doubt or worry and we may seem to lose our way but with some time and effort we can recover what seems to be lost.

Taking Time Off.

This is my first blog in a few weeks.  My family and I have been busy settling into  our new apartment, and my husband and I went to Texas for a week for some missions training.  We had a wonderful time in Texas we went excited about what God had to show us and we learned so much.  After the move and just daily life taking care of the family it was good to have a change of scenery.  As I reflect in our walk with God sometimes we need to get away and have new perspective, put aside our ideas and just be still and quiet and let God speak to us.  I feel refreshed, renewed and energetic not just physically but spiritually as well.
