Everyone feels your frustration. <br /><br /><br />Mandy AndersonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-136519859792558682.post-11609818172519054392011-04-15T18:41:46.633-07:002011-04-15T18:41:46.633-07:00Kathleen,
I certainly don't know what you are ...Kathleen,<br />I certainly don't know what you are going through, but I have have a *inkling* of how you feel with wearing all kinds of hats. I will pray for stamina for you, and that God will provide rest for you when you need it. I love Isaiah 41:10 that says *...I will uphold you with my righteous right hand..." When I am weary, I like to think of God's hand holding me up, literally. We are still following the updates and love hearing of the new things Cale can do. <br />Much love,<br />ChristinaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-136519859792558682.post-49625412078867751932011-04-15T13:40:18.293-07:002011-04-15T13:40:18.293-07:00Thank you for your honest feelings Kathleen...I kn...Thank you for your honest feelings Kathleen...I know you are so busy changing hats that you do not have time to breath deeply at times...you have to press on...the LORD will lead your path for you...one day at a time. Trust his faithfulness as you have been doing. We all admire your strength so much... What helps me focus when I am frazzeled, is to try to live in the ordinary everyday moments that others take for granted...when I hear Dennis come through the door after working all day...he hangs up his keys...then I hear the coffee kettle filling up and I know he is home to stay. Those little things mean the world to my days...<br />You are both constantly in my thoughts and prayers...MISS PEACH ~(^.^)~https://www.blogger.com/profile/09477572706387339613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-136519859792558682.post-84216364245820180772011-04-15T13:00:03.036-07:002011-04-15T13:00:03.036-07:00Just wanted to tell you I love you and will be pra...Just wanted to tell you I love you and will be praying specifically for you.Krystlenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-136519859792558682.post-78592077411389447572011-04-15T09:11:57.133-07:002011-04-15T09:11:57.133-07:00Kathleen,

You are a very strong woman and God will continue to walk with you through this journey. <br /><br />Please continue to post your feelings and do not bottle them up inside.

I love you and love you and love you!! ...Kathleen! I love you and love you and love you!! Yes, my situation is NOTHING like what Father has given you, but I HAVE had times when I've just wanted to go home...uh, yesterday Lord. I (not you) have whined and complained. I even told Father I didn't think He was going to change my situation, and if He wanted me to change my attitude, He was going to have to do it, because I didn't care if He did or not. You know what, He took it with a smile, gave me the peace that passes all understanding, and wasn't the slightest bit put-out that I told Him what I thought. I guess what I'm trying to tell you, let Father know exactly what you are thinking, He loves an honest, open heart. I am asking Father give you a SPECIAL touch of Himself when you are doing what's before you. I love, BUT Father loves youMORE!!! Hugs, Marion I think you are right, it's easy to say a few weeks isn't bad, when one isn't doing the ins and outs of a thing. Another thought, Yes the weeks are short, BUT the DAYS ARE LONG.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-136519859792558682.post-29801168078589367242011-04-14T20:18:01.154-07:002011-04-14T20:18:01.154-07:00Yes what Reenie said ....what an example...I don&#...Yes what Reenie said ....what an example...I don't know the purpose but may His grace be enough to sustain you. For His glory. I often think to myself I cannot do this one more minute Kathleen and then I find myself just drawn here and then I read how much you have endured and I know His grace is sufficient enough for me...Praying it is enough for one more day, week , month year for you my darling..<br />We love you..<br />Charlie and JeanThe Bensonsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-136519859792558682.post-12183807376506870022011-04-14T20:10:25.711-07:002011-04-14T20:10:25.711-07:00Oh Kathleen I hear you and I feel so much for you,...Oh Kathleen I hear you and I feel so much for you, just because you chose to obey doesn't mean obeying is always easy( rarely is it) - there is a special joy that comes with it,that no one can steal, but it is a hard choice to put yourself on the alter day after day. What a beautiful sacrifice you have become, and the incense of your prayer is an auromatic fragrance for the Lord to breath in straight from your heart. Can't you just see Him leaning over the insence bowl and the fragrance lofting up to Him ...ahhhh how beautiful your life is ! You have become the dwelling place of the Most High and your walls are ever before HIM - He is in you - guiding you, teaching you, allowing you to cry and being there to hold you .... All that you do for Caleb you do through His strength, He is ever present always there in times of distress and suffering. You are not alone, and I believe he is even at this moment preparing someone to come and to lift up your hands (so to speak),because this battle is YOUR VICTORY. Caleb is the focus of your physical life - but girl you are fighting a spiritual battle that you have already won ( again Hannah's song - take courage my love you've already won - you've already won the battle - keeps popping in my mind!) I don't think you are complaining - Not one bit when faced with the Cross even Jesus prayed " Father take this cup from me , but not my will, yours be done." Why do we think we must run to embrace the pains of our personal death.... It is okay to know we are laying down our lives, we are dying - and to recoginze that it isn't our will but HIS that we want.I think it is okay to acknowledge this is hard, brutally hard stuff. Girl I look at you and I am so proud of who you are in Him, you have been honest about your hopes, your dreams, your faults and fears - You put it all out there and you are still STANDING - now when you have done all that you know to do Stand. Hold fast to the promises he has given to you ! You are walking out that verse: "For ME to to live is CHRIST and to die is Gain" - I see it here on your blog daily , I see it in your smile as you cherish your husband and friend, I see it as you consistently choose His Will over your own idea of what this should all look like . I love the example you are to many a young girl reading this blog and all us old girls too!!!!! :) love you !

Of course, if that were possible I'd be standing in a really long line of people attempting to make things better. I love you and am following the blog daily and praying for healing, wisdom, encouragement, strength, joy, rest, peace, girl time, Cale's contentment in your home, etc. Have a wonderful weekend!Kathy Beckettnoreply@blogger.com
