Mommy on a Mission. Why it’s worth it. I have articulated to people in church leadership that I struggle with the same kind of consumerism as other women when it comes to the church. I have made a conscious decision to battle it, though. I’ve been asked what compels me to be a part of a church when I’m drawn other places. Why is it worth it? Hmm Why is it worth it? This is us doing it half-assed. Seriously! One Response to “Why it’s worth it”. April 1st, 2013 at 9:20 pm. Links to Sites I like.

Mommy on a Mission. I have very little upper body strength. I struggle to even lift my foster son’s carseat to put in the base sometimes. I have wondered on occasion if I should really start using the P90X videos I bought from a friend almost a year and a half ago. Thus far, I’ve still decided against it. [.]. The Pain of Reality. Sci fi movies are stupid. Light Sabers, Ray guns and Stargates to other planets are just silly to me. But have you ever sat down to watch a sci fi movie? Links to Sites I like.

Mommy on a Mission. The Pain of Reality. Sci fi movies are stupid. Light Sabers, Ray guns and Stargates to other planets are just silly to me. But have you ever sat down to watch a sci fi movie? For folks like me, the ones grounded in reality that think that anything with pixie dust and creatures that speak like the Goa’uld. Elieve that God is bigger than that! I don’t like Sci-Fi movies. But I think I’m going to go watch one… just for the fantasy of it all. So I can at least fo...One Response to “...

Mommy on a Mission. I’m not quite sure why it’s hit me today. I’ve lived through this day 33 times and not felt quite the way I do today. Today hurts. Have you ever waited for a phone call and had that anxious, anticipatory feeling in your gut that is screaming “RING DANG IT”? I have that swirling feeling in the pit of my stomach today and I can’t explain exactly why it’s there. It’s Fathers Day. Today hurts. It brings me into uncharted territory though. I actually. Does he imagine lifting up his little ...

Mommy on a Mission. What are we fighting for. What am I supposed to fight for? What AM I currently fighting for? Do I have to fight for anything? I wonder why I was allowed to meet my brother, who I seemingly can’t help in a any way, shape or form. He’s stuck there, I’m stuck here and there’s not much that can be done about either situation. What was God’s plan in all of that? Is that “my” thought? Or is God calling me to fight for something? How do you tell? Ugh… what are you fighting for? So coming hom...

Mommy on a Mission. When I just don’t see. Afraid of the dark. I’m just afraid of what I can’t see. And I can’t see in the dark. I don’t move once the lights are off until I’m certain I’ve got my bearings. I don’t want to run into anything unpleasant once I do move. And sometimes, I just don’t move. I wait. Once, during a particularly hard time in my life, I was driving in a mountain canyon and I was scared. I asked my husband “Is there any way out of here other than this road? Links to Sites I like.

Mommy on a Mission. When God is Silent. Two hours later and I’m mad. There is nothing. Nothing at all. Crickets. I don’t get it. I’ve been crying and yelling, screaming and begging for some sort of *something* from God. “Why are you so silent”, I wonder out loud and in my head? And, really, when it comes down to it, why are you waking me up in the middle of the night for nothing? 8220;What do you want from me? 8221;, I cry out on the bed in frustration. Nothing.

Mommy on a Mission. To figure out why this “callus” was on my mind, like any brilliant person would; I googled it. In doing so, I learned that God was telling me that I had a choice in how I was going to deal with pain I’m trying to not let define me. What’s a Callus? 8220;Calluses can be a form of protection for the hands. Gymnasts who perform on uneven parallel bars and other apparatus often get calluses on their hands, which take a lot of abuse. Guitar players also get calluses on their finger...8220;...

Mommy on a Mission. Adoption tears & UPS Packages. Undedr: Adoption isn't for Wimps! We finalize our adoption next Friday. I’m trying to fully accept what this means. For her, for me, for the other girls. For all of us. So her last name is Barber… so what? Forever in my family could mean that I’m forever relying on God to give me what I need for today, and. Well – so what. 2 Responses to “Adoption tears & UPS Packages”. November 11th, 2010 at 12:40 pm. Congratulations to you and yours!
