I am blessed by God

Its been awhile.....a long while, almost a year. And what a interesting year it has been. We have had many, many blessing this past year and I can see the Lords hand in it all. We've also had some financial difficulty that I thought was behind us. Well, its still here. Were trying to figure where God wants us in the big ol' world. Im trying to stop being such a control freak and let my husband take the lead.

Honestly though for some reason Im afraid that when he does lead it will cost me the most. It will cost me my (false) sense of security and my comfort zone. Probably some material comforts and possessions as well. But ya know what? I have a beautiful healthy family, and nothing else should really matter. In the big scope of life our houses, cars and possessions dont matter, just people. And my kids will be happy no matter where we are.

I have watched a number of ladies that I am blessed enough to call friends go through heart breaking losses of thier children. That really puts things in perspective. I have all my children here with me. Its time to stop sweating the small stuff. I am blessed

In this new year I am going to stop sweating the small stuff. And everything is small stuff.
