The kids have been able to swim in our pool for the last couple of days;
my
neighbor gave me tons of rock so I can further plan my rock garden
backyard with a fountain (I just have to find and get a fountain I
like);Work is slooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwww and I’m afraid of
what will be, but with the efforts I’m making, God gives me a glimpse
of progress;I’m praying about the personal safety issue. There is a client that is dealing with counter-transference. He’s focusing some inappropriate feelings towards me (he thinks he loves me). Although I have addressed the problem, it’s something that has not taken affect yet and I need to make a decision quickly. Even with that, there are not enough safety features (cameras, lighting, additional locks, room alarm, another person/security) that I feel I need to be safe. Honestly it boils down to finances and setting things up. I can do it alone. In some groups, it’s just me and men. It’s not always unsafe, but occasionally I get this “feeling“. I know God is with me.
I’ve been approached to challenge the unfortunate
situation from about a month and a half ago. I’m seriously considering
it. What have I got to lose now?I’m still considering the move, and weighing the pros and cons (open to ideas);
Basically all my thoughts are about change…
I’m
begining by telling God that I want to be a productive, fruitful
disciple, one who cooperates with His plan (even if I don’t understand
or get it).
I need to ask God to use His Word to change the way I think. I need the Holy
Spirit to have free rein in my life. At this point there is no reason to hold anything back.Anyone
who reads this, what do you do when you desire change in your life? Do
you just let the thoughts run through your mind yet choose not to take
action? Are there areas where you need to stand instead of hiding in
your shell? Is it time to be assertive and take what God truly intends
for you?I clearly am projecting, but I often wonder if I’m the
only one who thinks this way. I like to process my thoughts and
feelings with someone and although I’ve been given the opportunity by
interested parties; I’m not so interested.So I guess sometimes I’m talking to myself here…It’s kind of lonely. I do know of my faithful few who read and respond. That gives me such a great level of comfort. Thank you so much.
God Bless.

Have a great Friday and a great weekend!

I wish I could go swimming!
I hope your work issue resolves itself in due time. Good luck!
When I desire change in my life, I figure out how I can get to that point where I want to be and immediately start working towards it. I’ve always gotten through changes in my life, whether they were undesired or desired, with minimal conflict.

Wish you luck with your current work issue and hope you’ll be able to find a resolution.
You cannot continue in an unsafe place. Listen to “that voice”!
Depending on what sort of change I desire will depend on how I handle the situation. If this change involves me alone I ponder and shut myself off from the world for moments at a time for maybe a week. By then I have figured out my plan and proceed. However, if someone else is involved I still ponder to get my thoughts straight but then I must talk with this person and listen and compromise, by then we put the plan in action. It is complicated and simple all at once.
Do not allow yourself to be in a space that is not safe.
Call me…

Please be careful. This is a disturbing thought that something could happen to you.
