Packages and Garbage


You would think that one would get used to taking out the garbage.  With all these years of practice it should come easy by now.  But some lessons just take time and this one just caught me by surprise.  If I'd known in my twenties that I'd be still cleaning dishes and hauling out garbage in my fifties...I would have killed myself....not really!    It's not the life I'd envisioned for myself with great financial wealth and security and retirement just around the corner.  God has this way of putting people in situations that seem incredibly challenging with no hope of success and we get to the place where we wonder if we really can...and then we find freedom...the freedom in actually realizing that I can't...but He can. Like I said...some lessons just take longer to learn.

PS  ...and as if you didn't know...I have wonderful friends who are quickly becoming the envy of all who visit the post office...who support and encourage me and lift me up on angels wings and show God's love to me in such tangible and thoughtful ways...God bless you Ty and Amanda...and I'm passing out your address to all my friends...you're loved and prayed for....
