Slipped Thru His Fingers.... This Time

Have you ever wondered why the Lord allows certain things to happen (or not happen) in your life? Do you ever feel like nothing is moving around you? Like everything is at a standstill and all you really want is results from you fervent prayers?? Not that you are questioning His authority or power, but just wondering how come that particular lesson didn't get caught before it got to you...

**** Jenn thinking ****
I know for a fact that alot of what could happen doesn't because the Lord knows His children. He knows how much we can handle while calling on His name. I do know that "this too shall pass" in whatever season or which test I am in....

Father, I come before Your throne Oh Lord to cast my cares upon you. I don't know the outcome as of yet, but I know that You got this.... Show me how to let go and give You that last piece of baggage before I take off to my next destination of growth. I can't go to the next place with it. I have to leave and mean it. Your word says to give everything to You and let You handle it. I surrender, Lord. I surrender to You every single plan, thought, action that pertains to self glorification. I choose to follow Your word, I choose to follow Your heart when it comes to what's best for Jenn. I love you with every breath I breathe...

In your precious Son's name I pray, Amen....

Ms. Ma'am First Day of School...

Ya know in the midst of venting, I got side tracked as to why I was truly going to blog today.... My five year old big girl had her very first day of school yesterday and did such a good job. She couldn't stop talking about her first day of kindergarten !!!!

She came in and she said, "I have do my homework so I can pass kindergarten, mom." My teacher is nice, she wants us to work hard and do a good job. That made me proud because she is starting to understand that everything that her daycare teacher and I were giving her for schoolwork is what she will be working on in school... :) And you know I took pictures right?? I will post them soon.

Now, honestly I didn't want her at the school where she is at first. But as it would turn out, she is where can be monitored and cared for. Plus I am more at ease with her being close to her family. I am not in any shape ready for her to ride the school bus at 5 or walk home from school. I heard on the news this morning that a five year old little girl got off the school bus a stop too early and with other kids and walked home by herself. Thats scary to me..

Amen for people surrounding my little mama willing to stretch themselves for her and for me..

Love ya,

Jenn
