Glimpses

I love it when I have those precious and rare moments where I am blessed with glimpses of the BIGGER PICTURE. Special insights that the Heavenly Father sees fit in giving me to get me thru the moment or day! I know my Heavenly Father loves me...and He knows of my needs and I am His child...and I Love HIM!
I know that every person in my life is a gift from God and it's never random I feel when we gain a new friend or meet up with an old friend...and I treasure the grandeur of our relationships with eachother and with our Loving Savior and Heavenly Parents!
I have felt very humbled lately...aware of all my flaws and how my behavior affects those around me...namely my children but so in awe and grateful for the awareness of thier ease to forgive and move on! So the scriptures where we are asked to become like a child...meek, humble, full of forgiveness....is more powerful to me since I see that first hand in my own home and in trying to apply that to my own life isn't as easy, but when I try it the Lord has been good to me and my heart is learning and it gets easier to do as we keep trying to do it...
I want my family to know how much I miss you...lately truly yearned for your hugs...it's so easy to hear your love and concern for me and I feel that in my heart just want to be able to feel that in my being...miss the physical hugs!!!!
K...well I am going to go back to bed...I was able to see the chiropractor yesterday and he helped me feel a lot better. I got whiplash from the fender bender last Wednesday...I didn't feel the pain from it until Saturday evening and by Sunday evening I was nauseated and by the time I was at the chiropractor I was near tears...mostly cuz I couldn't wait for the relief that was to happen...I had a good night sleep too...very deep sleep...but just not long enough...so now I am ready to get more rest!
Pray that all goes well for the man that hit us as he is a Pastor and who knows how they pay for things...he wants to pay out of pocket without his insurance...and we never did have a cop show up...so I don't have a report that it was his fault. I do have the fire and ambulance crews that showed up able to vouch that he hit me and we spoke to the ambulance man who took our plates etc and said he would write the info in his report but who knows how that will hold up if we have to seek out the insurance people IF he fails to take care of it. I need to stop worrying though, and just trust this man and in his integrity, but am sure he could use prayers!
luv luv

What a sweet post. I am glad you feel better and I hope you continue to. It is great that our kids can be so forgiving when we can be such turds to them. Thanks for your words.

I love and miss you so much too Amy!! I so know how you feel being away from family. I just want to be with everyone so badly!! It is the pits living away from them all. I loved your encouraging words. I am so sorry that you got whiplash. You need to go get some massages too! I know that it will help. I wish I was there to give you one! I love you so much and I hope that you start to feel better too!
