Long story short, I was going to go to the secret sister dinner and pick a secret sister for the year... but became afraid of maybe I have put these women on higher ground because they love God..not realizing we are all people with and have things that occur in our lives. Sometimes I live in this bubble of sunshine and recipes... and do not realize we all have difficulties... but as a person who has been going to this church for 2 and half months, I do not think I needed to hear some of the things that were said to me today... I got scared..afraid that maybe the church is drama filled and I just want to love God...<br /><br />I really do not think that the drama is the case... I just maybe over reacted to the situation...<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6577089179468680634-3401934372011356148?l=luanne-thompson.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Luanne Thompsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18279185524553239241noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6577089179468680634.post-69069047670642334132010-01-08T04:36:00.000-08:002010-01-08T04:42:48.299-08:00I have come across someone in my life that has really shaken my spirit. Yesterday she had me so upset that I did not act the way God would want me to. So I went out for lunch and thought about what I needed to do. I prayed for this person...and will continue to do so...but I will no longer let her steal my joy. It is funny that I can let something so little and petty stand in the way of my walk with God. If you are feeling this way today, just find a quiet place and pray for God's direction.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6577089179468680634-6906904767064233413?l=luanne-thompson.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Luanne Thompsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18279185524553239241noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6577089179468680634.post-64971874102461893832010-01-07T06:15:00.000-08:002010-01-07T03:31:17.756-08:00As the quiet morning hours pass, I sit here and reflect on my adult children. I wonder where the time went. The best years of my life were raising my children. If you are a mom, remember this time goes by so quickly and you can't get it back. So little things like tooth paste in the sink, spilled milk and picking up toys.. are not a deal... Enjoy your children...don't try and hurry it away. God gave them to you to enjoy and not to stress over.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6577089179468680634-6497187410246189383?l=luanne-thompson.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Luanne Thompsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18279185524553239241noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6577089179468680634.post-31873544511930231582010-01-05T18:18:00.001-08:002010-01-05T18:21:21.234-08:00Today I watched my grandaughter. She is such a wonderful gift from God. I am still reading the new Joel Osteen book and learning to not live in the survival mode. We should not worry about tomorrow, for God has it all worked out before it even happens.... It should not be our will but the will of God's.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6577089179468680634-3187354451193023158?l=luanne-thompson.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Luanne Thompsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18279185524553239241noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6577089179468680634.post-37182264035229173262010-01-03T06:09:00.000-08:002010-01-03T06:11:03.634-08:00I am getting ready for church - I have been going to Emmanuel Community Church for close to two months now. I really like it there. I think Lisa and Lex may meet me there today. I am really making a committment to become active in church and meet new people that love God.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6577089179468680634-3718226403522917326?l=luanne-thompson.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Luanne Thompsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18279185524553239241noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6577089179468680634.post-315136658899295612010-01-02T19:33:00.000-08:002010-01-02T19:38:21.714-08:00Today I read Denise Jackson's book called The Road Home - It is a book about Footsteps of faith, hope and love. She writes, "When God leads us home, we experience new joy and purpose. We see our past redeemed and restored. We see old wounds healed and even our gravest mistakes transformed into a tool for God's glory."<br /><br />I am taking the year 2010 and restoring my walk with God... I hope that you will take this journey with me...<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6577089179468680634-31513665889929561?l=luanne-thompson.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Luanne Thompsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18279185524553239241noreply@blogger.com0
