Everything Estes: December 2008
http://everythingestes.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 06, 2008. This year is to me. Not just peeling back. The kind of pain that makes you feel your heartbeat. I shook my fist at You. I begged You to make it stop. I idolized the pleasantness of peace. As a last resort. I clung to You. Course through my veins. I saw myself as i was. So at the mercy of my own. And then i saw You. Not resenting me for my need. Not dragging your feet. But so unmistakably ready to love. And undeniably strong enough. With delightfully shameful reminders. So for...

Karen's Cares: April 2007
http://karencares.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 16, 2007. When something like the massacre that occured today at Virginia Tech happens, it can really snap you. Back into reality. We are not promised tomorrow. James 4:14 Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little. While and then vanishes. What motivation to get out there and share Christ with people! Let's keep the people of VTech in our prayers and keep our eyes focused on the cross. God bless! Sunday, April 15, 2007.

Karen's Cares: FEAR
http://karencares.blogspot.com/2010/11/fear.html
Saturday, November 13, 2010. This might seem crazy . but this is me! SOOOO its time to stop this crap and trust the Lord with my fears. It is time to tell people how messed up I am (I want to vomit just thinking about this). I want to be honest about my desires/feelings. Just putting this in writing took a leap of faith. Just admitting this . even to myself . brought out lots of emotion and tears. As much as I would love to say, Put on you big girl panites right now, I think you already did!

Karen's Cares: May 2009
http://karencares.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 18, 2009. Don’t I work hard and deserve a chance? To be admired, to be hired or just asked to dance. I never used to think that I wasn’t enough,. But getting a job, much less a man has been rough. Rejection, disappointment, and loneliness too. This is my life, and no one has a clue. Always wondering when I’ll finally be enough. Afraid that I’ll leave and never be thought of. I try real hard to prove that I matter,. But the stillness of my apartment only makes me sadder. I have to be enough.

Karen's Cares: July 2007
http://karencares.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 22, 2007. Ephesians 4:2 (NLT) "Always be humble and gentle. Be patient with each other, making allowance for each other's faults because of your love". How often do I let someone get under my skin. Its not usually that they do something wrong to me. Sometimes its just a personality thing. I get so impatient and my thoughts, and unfortunately sometimes even my actions, are anything but HUMBLE! Thinking I am better . again no humbleness! And what about gentleness?

http://karencares.blogspot.com/2008/11/i-have-new-song-obsession-by-kellie.html
Wednesday, November 05, 2008. I have a new song obsession by. It describes how I feel in this time in my life. I feel like I cant let anyone close to me, I can't trust someone to genuinely care for me. Scared to let someone in, Can't bear to get hurt again". The lyrics say. That is me. I am afraid to open up to my family, my friends. I am afraid to let them see me hurt, see my cry, afraid to let them see my imperfections, afraid of what they will think. And one of my biggest fears is. Jenn to the Bacak.
