Missing You...

For the last two days I've been weeding or hoeing like crazy. It's finally getting HOT, which is a good thing, though it's been raining half the time, leaving you hot, sticky, and wet. Just a little uncomfortable, but things have to get done. His dad reminds us every morning, "work work work" as he mumbles out the door. : ) Pretty funny...

I've been thinking a lot lately, since I've pretty much been on my own. *giggles* It has been me, God, and Pastor Tom - via IPOD. It's really nice to have sermons that I know are credible and I enjoy listening to him. For some reasons songs just don't do it for me, I'm downloading new ones for this weekend. Did you ask the Holy Spirit to fill you at all today? I've been reminded that the "Christian life" is impossible, nor is it easy. We can't do it, not on our own. We need the Holy Spirit to get us through our day, it's not that we need Him for help... we need Him to do it. It's just up to us to make that choice and ask Him, to lay down our physical bodies, our intellect (minds), our attitudes, our addictions, our bad habits, our will, our emotions, and our personalities... He wants it all. And He promises to give us what we need and He knows we need the Holy Spirit, all we have to do is ask and he will fill us. Because we are so human, we need to be asking Him to fill us daily, not because He runs out, or because it's not enough, its mostly to remind ourselves that it is He who is living through us, not by ourselves we truly live. So.. did you simply ask?

As I was saying.. I've been working a lot on my own and thinking. It makes me think of what I'm missing back home. The softball games, the laughter, the FOOD, the workplace.. (those are in no particular order) But it is the people that make up those things that I miss. I really do especially tonight, because I've been working alone the last two days and I will be for the rest of the weekend. James was blessed to go on a retreat meeting with his church. I know it will be good for him. I was planning on going, but then I decided against it and it's turned out for the better. Now the weeds and grass won't grow on us and make more work out for us and the kids' program ends this Sunday so I should be there to meet them and introduce myself. I'm very nervous about that, I haven't been here very long and I was always with James when I went to church. I know that God is with me though, and that's all that I ever need! Point being.. I'll be feeling the "missings" this weekend.. so since "the boss" will be gone. CALL ME! ; )

Just know and remember:

I miss you!
