Laura Story - Blessings


so this morning i was having a bit of a pity party for myself. i've been dealing with intense dizzyness off and on since november. i had finally found that therapy was working and had a week of feeling "normal." due to finances and insurance nightmares i had to stop the therapy. this week the dizzyness has slowly returned to where it feels crippling yet again.
this morning the drive to school was hard. the lights and busy traffic make the dizzyness worse. i had just dropped the kids off and was heading back to town to do a few errands before going to work. this song played - by verse two i was in tears! just had to share
and i will cling yet again to this:

Isaiah 41:10 (from the Message)
Don't panic. I'm with you.
There's no need to fear for I am your God.
I'll give you strength. I'll help you.
I'll hold you steady, keep a firm grip on you.

the "calling"

okay - so it's been awhile since i've ranted...and it's time! it is beautiful outside and i'm sitting inside my makeshift office at the church. i am lucky enough to have a door that opens to the outside so it is wide open and i'm loving that. but as i'm working here today i feel the need to rant so enjoy.... being in my position i often have to ask people to help out. you know, volunteer to teach or work in the nursery or teach or hang out with the kids, you know - volunteer! i love all the responses i get. i am particularly fond of the "i don't like kids one" - it doesn't go over real well with me when they have 3 of their own. hmm??? but the one that really gets my goat is the "i don't feel called to that." argh...really!?!?!!?!? well, i didn't feel called to wipe my kids bottoms either, but it is a good thing i did it anyways. surprisingly, everyone feels called to the waterpark though! now, let me back up a ...
