Wow, it's been way too long since I have blogged. I was in Arizona last week for a conference with very minimal internet and then did not feel well yesterday, I know, excuses do not make up for it.

I had a lot to catch up on and I think about how much there is to say but I will keep it short and simple. God's word is so amazing, his love for us by teaching us what to believe and how to interact with the world, living as Jesus did. Something we continue to strive for, but always fall short.
Through my daily interactions, I observe so many people. There are those who say they serve the Lord, but through their actions do not demonstrate this. Then, there are those who flatly deny the Lord and do not feel the comfort and glory of our God. The former people frustrate me when I interact with them, but I realize that none of us are perfect and it is not my job to be concerned with their behavior. The latter people break my heart. It is so sad to me that there are people who question the Lord and do not know him. I cannot imagine what I would do without him.

I pray that those who know the Lord grow closer to him each day. I also pray that those who don't know him may learn about him and see how they could have a better life with the involvement of faith. I also thank him for loving me regardless of my many imperfections.

  1. Hey Liz! Glad to hear you made it back safe and sound! We were praying for good, safe travels for you! But not too happy to hear you're not feeling well! It seems like everyone is getting some sort of bug! :( I know that tends to happen this time of year, but ugh! I'm sorry - feel better!! Tea and R & R! And no worries about some time "away" from the blog - keeping a normal schedule is tough while travelling, especially when there's no Internet! Your heart is in the right place - God knows you desire him! I'm trying to remember - and relearning again and again - that this blog was created to be a place of peace, and women being themselves, NOT a place of guilt and pressure.
    Hope you have a great rest of your week! And hope to hear from you again soon! You always have such nice things to say! :)
