I'm writing this post when I'm smack dab in the middle of something. The only problem is I don't even know what that something is. It's just a feeling of being "out of sorts". There are times when I feel paralyzed and stuck. That's all I can say. By now you know (unless this is the first time you've stopped by here) I love music. I usually find a song that speaks to me. When I can't figure out how to articulate my thoughts there is someone out there with the right words. I'm grateful.
I know most people would rather read something uplifting and positive, but I promised myself that I'm going to be real on here. I also promise I'll be back to my old self in no time telling you that I was lost and now I'm found. :)
There are a couple of things I know I need to do when I feel this way. I need to get my little you know what downstairs and get on my elliptical machine or out for a walk. It's raining so I'm going down. I must light a candle and clean out my purse. For some reason I can think more clearly when my purse is clean. It's times like this when I find it difficult to find the right music that doesn't annoy me.
I also need to make a decision...

Already feeling better,

Love you sweet Sister! Lifting you up in prayer. I even posted a blog this week.
Love, Annette H
I think sometimes we get 'that feeling' when a change needs to be made. Maybe in something we are doing, or thinking about, or watching or reading...it could be anything. And, I think that's the Holy Spirit's job...to make you uncomfortable when something in your life is amiss.
Saying a prayer for you.
I too think the same as Tonja... that when we get that feeling the Spirit is nudging us...God is getting to move us, grow us... not sure quite what it is... but He will reveal is to us as we pray and seek His desire for this time. I too am in a "funk" so to speak just like you are. This song is what came to my mind as I read your post sweet sister... I will be praying for you.
I Will Listen by Twila Paris
Hard as it seems
Standing in dreams
Where is the dreamer now
Wonder if I
Wanted to try
Would I remember how
I don't know the way to go from here
But I know that I have made my choice
And this is where I stand
Until He moves me on
And I will listen to His voice
This is the faith
Patience to wait
When there is nothing clear
Nothing to see
Still we believe
Jesus is very near
I can not imagine what will come
But I've already made my choice
And this is where I stand
Until He moves me on
And I will listen to His voice
Could it be that He is only waiting there to see
If I will learn to love the dreams that He has dreamed for me
Can't imagine what the future holds
But I've already made my choice
And this is where I stand
Until He moves me on
And I will listen to His voice
i'm smack dab in the middle of something too and i don't know what it is. i appreciate honesty more than post that is all tied up with a pretty ribbon.
love to you!
Remember the song, "Be Not Afraid"? Focuses on Isaiah 43:2. This could so be my memory verse: "When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you." Claiming this for all found stuck in the middle of huge and hard circumstances-I hope this encourages you.
The verse that Annette gave you is one that I have clung to before and He brought it back to me last Fall...I highly recommend committing them to memory...they give such peace...His peace and will lift your head right up. May He be the lifter of your head....
Hello, I came to your blog via Over the backyard fence. I do so feel for you and know to a tiny point of which you speak. No one paticular verse in the bible that I can quote that you do not probably know. Just that we as believes do go through things and we do eventually find our answers. It has taken me 2 years but I did find some answers, I am still going through some patches but its much better. There are lessons and we have to seek and wait on the lord. Sometimes it can be a long wait but its for a reason. Just know you have folks praying for you and we are/have been in this one way or the other.
My prayers are with you.
