I can’t believe that it won’t be long until I have written a weekly blog for another entire year. As I sat here tonight, I pondered whether I had the energy, even if I did have an idea, to write before the end of this day. After all, who would care? Who pays attention anyway? Would anyone even notice, other than my husband, who I know would understand if I didn’t write. I thought of lots of excuses.“I am pushing through to keep my word and my commitments to the work at this site and remain steadfast to my promise.”

However, I am pushing through to keep my word and my commitments to the work at this site and remain steadfast to my promise. After such a long time of doing this, it sometimes becomes extremely hard to even find a topic about which I can write when all I see is such sad news on a daily basis from those who are so busy trying to divide us and and steer us down a path that I do not wish to travel.
The good part is that there are just so many good people out there who want nothing more than to help and support other in any way that they can at this time. And despite everything, we know that we can always pray to the Lord God Almighty to help others when we have no other way to do so ourselves.
Therefore, I am committed to be there and to do the work that has been assigned to me. And when I can’t seem to be inspired with anything about which I might write, I choose to turn to the Holy Spirit for help and inspiration and know that I will be given something when I just ask for it Maybe it will be tomorrow as I know that it will be in His time and not mine.
Just thinking about it makes me tired so I think that I will go to bed now and wait on the Lord as I begin my prayers and meditation before I fall to sleep! After all, it is so reassuring to know that I do not have to rely on my own mind alone or I would never, ever succeed. And I have learned from the past that an answer is always give to me, if I am just have a little patience. I think that patience may be the hardest lesson to learn but then again I know that practice makes perfect and I need to let go and let God!
