I have contemplated whether or not we should or shouldn’t do a lot of things lately. Truly those are personal decisions. Although our choices always can effect those around us, we aren’t in the business of forcing our ideas on others. Faced with missing out on special times I love and missing my friends and family it isn’t easy to choose to isolate. I was looking for a Bible verse to try to get some clarity. I actually asked for an out loud Gideon sign and got one. It was clearly a “No.” Reading Romans just reminds me that we need Jesus to help us because we cannot understand God’s will on our own. Sometimes the “No” we listen to is really important. I can still remember the loud whisper when I was young. I tried to do something foolish. God clearly said,”No.” But Roman reminds us nothing can separate us from His love.
I am starting my own blog to reduce my boredom and give me a place to put my thoughts. Recently some people I know put some very difficult words out for all the world to see. I have been chicken to do the same and now I want to set the record straight. I didn't talk to people from high school for over ten years. It seems so silly now. I found out recently that I'm not the only one who grew up in college and beyond. We aren't kids anymore so the past is just that the past. I'll admit some of it I don't want to remember, but we did have some fun times in high school. The truth is something happened to me that I was not at all ready to talk about so I just avoided people. I got married in 1998 to a really great guy I met in college. We were giddy and in love. We decided after nine months of bliss to have a baby. Why not? I was bored and we wanted one. That sounds terrible to say that, but it is true. Boom one month later I was expecting. Three months later Jo
