Light and Dark

This past weekend was awful. I've never had a worse weekend. I will not share details, but suffice it to say, I had a hard time seeing any light. We are not out of the "valley of the shadow of crap", as a dear friend called it, but I can see God's grace. Huge amounts. Enormous.

Here are some thoughts... I really can do nothing without Christ. I could not have spoken, could not have stood, could not have even breathed without Christ.

I have no right to pass judgement on anyone, anything, anytime. Ever.

Prayer is not the least that I could do - it is the most amazing thing to be done for anyone. It has been the most amazing thing to be borne up by the prayers of those who love me and my family.

My God is bigger than my problems and should be treated as such.

I am not an addict.  I had always feared that when really bad things would happen, I'd turn to food or alcohol for comfort.  I have not.  Praise God.  Addiction runs in my family, so I'm so thrilled.

My homeschool scheduling/curriculum needs to be portable and assumable by anyone who is watches my kids.
