This Week and Knowing I’m Not Alone

We had a wonderful weekend. We spent time together, I met up with some new girlfriends, one was a blogger that I have been following since I first started this blog. It was a true delight. Sunday was had a beautiful Sunday at church, we spent time with people we love and we felt good.

Then Monday hit. We felt a hit on us that we were praying wouldn’t hit. One had to do with me and a job I really want and another was with finances. We felt the hit and it was not pretty.

I felt hopeless and useless. There was nothing I could do about either situation and it killed me. All I did was cry. Myke sat there with a look on his face that killed me even more. I felt the plan that we had been hoping for slip away from us. I sat on our bed crying and Myke came in and sat next to me grabbed my hands and we prayed. We prayed, I cried, and prayed some more. Our problems were not solved and probably won’t be solved for awhile, but I cannot tell you the weight that was lifted after we prayed. The power of prayer is a powerful thing.

The next day our problems were still there in the back of my mind and there were moments of the day when it came into my mind. That is where the new Hillsong album, Empire came in handy. Blasted that in my ear for an hour and focused my energy on my work and staying positive made it more bearable. Reminds me that I’m not alone.

One of the things I’m really hoping this blog will be is a support system for people who feel this way. Somewhere to know that we are not alone.
However one happy thing that happened is I tried the s’more Oreo. I’m hooked. Get them while you can.
