Need to Feed

As an extremely busy Christian woman, wife, mother, and everything else, there are times when I know I am hungry for more of God and need to be fed.  My spiritual gas tank is running low.  I try to keep it topped off but there are days when all I can do is whisper "God, help me."  So today and tomorrow I am attending the Women of Faith Imagine conference in Charlotte.  I am looking forward to sitting in God's presence, surrounded by women who worship the same God, resting in Him, and feeding on the Word.  If you are feeling hungry lately, then take some time for you and God, He restores us, strengthens us, and prepares us for the what we have been called to do.  


Restore us again, O God; and cause Your face to shine [in pleasure and approval of us], and we shall be saved!
Psalm 80:3

Beginnings...

When starting a blog, I know it is important to have a vision an understand exactly what you want your blog to be about and who your blogging persona will be.  So vision I have - it is always big!!!  Blog focus and persona though.... more difficult.  I know who I am but what do I want to share with the world?  There are so many times in life where I find myself wondering... "does anyone else feel this way??"  Often we feel that no one else could possibly understand what we have experienced or maybe we wonder if our children are behaving similarly to others out there.  So I would like to share my experiences and thoughts in the hope we discover we aren't alone.

What is so special about me?  Do I have it all together - ha! - absolutely not!!  Super Woman I am not.  I can't tell you how many days I walk out that door only to realize I never checked to see if my shirt was on backwards, inside out, or covered in mysterious substances only known to little hands.  I am human, I make mistakes, I have feelings, I love, I enjoy alone time, I love being with my family, I make dinner, I do laundry (a lot of laundry), I think, I learn, I read, I work, I pray, and I am enough.

My blog focus and persona is just to be real with you.  And to prove we experience similar situations in this life.
