There's something about Sunday that's so peaceful and so relaxing. It's a day of praise and worship, a day of replenishing and refreshing. It's a time to talk to God and more importantly it's time to listen to what He has to say to you. Other days of the week are so hectic, it's hard to take time to listen.
A good Christian friend of mine used to complain about not finding a job, a man, her health, a life and anything else she could find to complain about. I had to remind her that not having those things was God's way of speaking to her; telling her there was something else she should be doing. Recently she moved to help her elderly parent who had health issues and although she has complaints about that, it was what God was telling her to do. So much time is wasted when we ignore God's word.
We have to listen, we have to be obedient and we have to freely give to those who have less than we have. Remember Matthew 25:40 tells us "The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'
God speaks on Sunday morning but He is talking to us all of the time, we just have to listen.
Be blessed today and more importantly, be a blessing. Have a great Sonday!

Change of Plans
Much to your delight and my (I think) my post on this blog will not just be about adoption, finding my birth mother, being angry etc. Since my recent illness, I have decided that life if much too short to dwell on those things you have no control over. I have opinions about everything and knowledge about a lot of things. So I'm expanding my horizons and talking about other things that are on my mind.
Today my thoughts are on the people who use "I've got plenty of nothin' and nothin's plenty for me" as their theme song. They have nothing and they want nothing. That's not the song I want in my head all day, I hope it's not the song you're listening to.
That's it for today.
(Maybe L. Sleigh will start looking for me)

Another Productive Day!
Thank God for feeling better. I've gotten so much done in the last few days. Maybe it's because I'm not doing Facebook! There's something to be said about a social network that is so addictive you find yourself on it most of the day. Life is too short for that.

It's Been Awhile!
Sorry I haven't posted anything lately but I've been in and out of the hospital during the past three months. Happy to say I'm feeling much better but have a long long way to go to get back to normal. Pray for me. I will start posting my thoughts again soon. I promise!
