I'm not having a very good week with regards to the house and moving. Satan is trying to steal my joy and peace and I don't feel very strong right now. I've been praying for the Lord to restore the peace I found at my retreat. It's funny, too, one of the gals did a song from Steven Curtis Chapman called "The Mountain," about those great mountaintop experiences we have - but we can't stay there and need to take what we've learned and bring it down into the valleys. I'm in a deep, dark valley right now. The retreat was my mountaintop! I just keep wondering why, WHY, do these things have to be so long and drawn-out for me? I understand learning from the waiting, and everything having a purpose, but EVERY time I go through something??? It's getting old. I'm oh so tired. I'm mentally and emotionally exhausted. A year ago I was struggling with the camp search. Now I don't even really care where we end up, just as long as we get closure to all this soon! I can't even make any plans for 2008 because I have NO idea where we'll be! I feel like my entire life is on hold.

Make those 2008 plans, the kind of plans that you can do no matter where your at. But for now can you start something new that you have been wanting to learn. Winter is a time to regroup and it goes by real fast if you have something that will keep you busy.
Keep the good thoughts of your plans going.
Theres something very good coming and most important, theres something very good that you have now. hugs
Happy Holidays to you and your family
