Yeah, sometimes life is hard, no, that is not true, actually life is often hard. The singles feel like little helicopters hovering over green pastures wondering, "will I ever land?" while the married folks wake up one morning wondering, "is this it?" feeling a bit trapped. Tying the knot is in fact tying the knot. People with good health complain about the heat and how long the work day is and unemployed people complain that they have no work. People in the limelight pine to sit unnoticed in the back and people in the back are longing to be in the limelight. So where is the peace He promised? Complete unabandoned yielding. Let Him drive the car, let Him choose the destinations, let Him decide what's the best way of getting there. Yield. He never disappoints. Never. You've given your life to Him, He's taken it and He wants you to yield, to trust. He's a good guy and He likes you. I like you too. Hmmm… very interesting post.

I have wanted for many years to do that, but it hasn't come yet. Think of the things you *get* to do, not as though you *have* to do them. Sometimes that attitude can help you get through with a little more joy. May His joy be your strength in your greatest need. Oh, Louissa! You get to lead worship!

Thousands of numbers. Data entry was B double O Boring!! I had to put a sign up in my little cubicle that said "there is more to life than this" just to remind myself. Because it felt endless and monotonous and want-to-blow-your-brains-out boring! That's also where I received my first case of carpel tunnel ... and I saw you mentioned that the other day. Corning had an Ergonomic team come and check out my work station ... it was amazing! As soon as I adjusted the monitor, where the keyboard and mouse were ... the pain left almost immediately and I could sleep again at night! Thought you might want to check this out ... http://www.heal-naturally.com/ergonomics.html Hope you don't die of boredom in the season of life. It would be a horrible thing to have to write on your grave stone. Louissa - killed by a desk and a computer. :-) when I worked at Corning I sat for 8 hrs a day in front of a monitor and typed numbers. Thousands of numbers. Data entry was B double O Boring!!

I have felt that way before too. You know... in this time that you are in, or season... don't forget that you are effecting countless individuals with your worship leading on Sundays! You really do have an amazing voice and the way you lead worship is real, and everything that prophet said a few years back at your presbytery, that's all really true!! About the worship leading that is, it reflects the heart of God. Your entries are always great! -James' Great entry Louissa…
