Once again it's been far too long since my last post. But I've had good reason for not posting. Well, maybe not a good reason but a valid excuse. Earlier this week I wrote a long drawn out post about all my woes. It was quite depressing, which actually is fairly fitting considering my state of mind. I've been battling a not so small dose of depression as of late (which is the main reason for my lack of posting, simply no will). As I wrote all my problems spilled onto the page as I whined on and on about how my life sucks right now. But something happened as my problems were made definitive in black and white. They didn't seem to matter quite as much. Simply having my thoughts written out and organized seemed to clear my mind. And then something started to slip into me that I haven't felt in some time, hope.
No things aren't the greatest right now. I don't really have any more answers than I did at the beginning of this week. But I also know that things will not always be this way. This is simply a stage in my (our) life. I fully believe that God has some lessons for us to learn throughout all this. I'm not sure what those lessons are but I'm hoping I can figure those out quickly so I can move on to the next stage. Hopefully, that stage will have a little less turmoil or at least a semblance of a break from this deluge of issues with which we are dealing. I just have to hold on till we overcome this current battle we are facing. I must remember to turn to my God because he is my hope and my strength which I so desperately need because I honestly don't have any at the moment. I also can't forget to write most especially in the darkest of places because it always seems to alleviate the pain and makes things feel not quite as disastrous as they once seemed.
So some changes are coming soon around here. I've been working on something new and I'm hoping to reveal it in the next day or two. So if anyone is still out there, stay tuned for that. :) And I'll leave this post with my favorite verse.
"For I know the plans I have for you." declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future."
Jeremiah 29:11
