Dear Lord Jesus,
This week has been one of careful meditation and endless intercession.
Thank you for your clear direction, your steadfast love, and a peace that truly passes all understanding….
I don’t know where you will lead me in this place but I know the Joy you have given me to see me through and I trust You.
With love and appreciation,
Always…
Your little Girl

God,
I have no idea how I got here…
And I can’t seem to find my way, I don’t know what to do.
How much do I tolerate before I am stuck?
How long do I bite my tongue before I completely lose my voice?
How hard do I fight before I just give up?
How do I know when to throw in the towel?
If he thinks I deserve better than why doesn’t he start treating me better?
Why do I feel like I don’t deserve better?
I don’t know how I am still hanging on…. I think it’s because You haven’t let me go… I hope you’ve got a tight grip because I don’t know how much longer I can keep up…
Lord, I am listening….I am seeking…. I am here….meet me here. Show me your ways and in this seemingly insignificant part of my life please give me clear direction.
I just don’t know what to do….

1. I think part of a best friend’s job should be to immediately clear your computer history if you die.
2. Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you’re wrong.
3. I totally take back all those times I didn’t want to nap when I was younger.
4. There is great need for a sarcasm font.
5. How the heck are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet?
6. Was learning cursive really necessary?
7. Map Quest really needs to start their directions on #5. I’m pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood.
8. Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died.
9. I can’t remember the last time I wasn’t at least kind of tired.
10. Bad decisions make good stories.
11. You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you know that you just aren’t going to do anything productive for the rest of the day.
12. Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after Blue Ray? I don’t want to have to restart my collection…again.
13. I’m always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten-page research paper that I swear I did not make any changes to.
14. “Do not machine wash or tumble dry” means I will never wear this – ever.
15. I hate when I just miss a call by the last ring (Hello? Hello?!), but when I immediately call back, it rings nine times and goes to voice mail. What did you do after I didn’t answer? Drop the phone and run away?
16. I hate leaving my house confident and looking good and then not seeing anyone of importance the entire day. What a waste.
17. I keep some people’s phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call.
18. I think the freezer deserves a light as well.
19. I disagree with Kay Jewelers. I would bet on any given Friday or Saturday night more kisses begin with Miller Lite than Kay.
21. Sometimes, I’ll watch a movie that I watched when I was younger and suddenly realize I had no idea what the heck was going on when I first saw it.
22. I would rather try to carry 10 plastic grocery bags in each hand than take 2 trips to bring my groceries in.
23. The only time I look forward to a red light is when I’m trying to finish a text.
24. I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger.
25. How many times is it appropriate to say “What?” before you just nod and smile because you still didn’t hear or understand a word they said?
26. I love the sense of camaraderie when an entire line of cars team up to prevent a jerk from cutting in at the front. Stay strong, brothers and sisters!
27. Shirts get dirty. Underwear get dirty. Pants? Pants never get dirty, and you can wear them forever.
28. Sometimes I’ll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not know what time it is.
29. Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car keys in a pocket, finding their cell phone, and Pinning the Tail on the Donkey – but I’ll bet everyone can find and push the snooze button from 3 feet away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed, first time, every time!
30. My check engine light has been on for three months now and nothing’s happened. I’m starting to think that my car is just attention deprived.
31. Sometimes I pretend not to remember details about people because having a good memory apparently equates to creepiness.
32. My GPS says “Estimated Arrival Time.” I see “Time to Beat.”
33. Whenever someone says “I’m not book smart, but I’m street smart”, all I hear is “I’m not real smart, but I’m imaginary smart”.
34. My keyboard needs a removable crumb tray like my toaster.
35. What would happen if I hired two private investigators to follow each other?
36. I wish it were appropriate to say to a complete stranger, “Excuse me, would you like me to show you how to discipline your child?”
37. I never understood why the Lions and Cowboys always get to play on Thanksgiving. Shouldn’t the Patriots play the Redskins, and then steal their stadium afterwards?
38. Double-Stuffed Oreos should just be called Oreos, and regular Oreos should be called Diet Oreos.
