Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. 10That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.<BR/>(2 corinthians 12: 9-10; niv). <BR/>love,<BR/>danidanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09238327752920852333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8564587143098254879.post-5463367061646357282008-08-08T23:21:00.000-04:002008-08-08T23:21:00.000-04:00Wendy, thanks for sharing!

The fear of God's true heart towards me spurs a lot of self-doubt, and walls around my heart. And yet, it is what I need the most. <BR/>I have so many questions, and so many struggles. It is sometimes overwhelming, you know? <BR/>Till next time,<BR/>CathyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8564587143098254879.post-23780846331031144222008-08-08T14:30:00.000-04:002008-08-08T14:30:00.000-04:00Glad to be a fellow traveler on this journey with ...Glad to be a fellow traveler on this journey with you.<BR/><BR/>Three years ago on my knees at the altar I prayed and asked God for an insatiable hunger for His Word and He was faithful to do that.

And haven't I already won the prize of salvation, or is the prize that of perfection, or that of living the life God intended for me on earth? I wish Paul were around to discuss this all with!<BR/><BR/>This one thing I know, though; that Christ loves me, and His love ultimately covers all my imperfections, no matter how badly I wish I could measure up as the perfect mother and wife and friend and employee and and and.Mozi Esmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16078786257885681829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8564587143098254879.post-64028722316856969382008-08-08T01:41:00.000-04:002008-08-08T01:41:00.000-04:00This post is amazing!

It is really encouraging to see where the Lord has brought you. I'm not there yet, but I hope to be soon.Anne Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17445840562866653755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8564587143098254879.post-80413638308462314242008-08-07T17:31:00.000-04:002008-08-07T17:31:00.000-04:00I've got to get done with "Captivating" so I can p...I've got to get done with "Captivating" so I can pass it on to you!

I run away (or want to run away) and my Savior always pulls me back into his loving arms. Despite what I feel are baby steps in my growth, I know that I would be so lost without him, in this life and then lost to him after death. He is the rock that I cling to. One thing I struggle with is the fact that he loves and cherishs me despite my tremendous failings. He knows my deepest, darkest self and loves me just the same. I think that's whay I love the parable of the prodigal (sp?) son. I wonder how he can possibly still want me and he always does and always will...Amazing!<BR/>Anyway, thank you, thank you for sharing this post!<BR/>And thank you for the craft love...I do enjoy a good craft. And I do hope I am and will be a good Mama. It's such a massive undertaking, yet I love it.<BR/>Hugs to you!<BR/>Sarah :)Little Candlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12390524229618298316noreply@blogger.com
