I woke up today with a terrible headache. So much was on my mind. But after Church and a nap… I’m good. I went to the movies on Friday, but I stayed in the whole weekend. Glad I did too. Plus I caught up on some much needed rest. Sometimes its good to just relax on the couch, to watch a movie. I never do that. I’m not a TV person at all. This winter I’m going to detach from the computer and just relax on the couch. I have to tell myself its okay. I never talk on the phone, so that’s a PLUS. You’d be surprised that the most I talk on the phone is less than an hour a WEEK. I hate talking on the phone. But I can write your eyes off. LOL I spend a lot of time with my friends, siblings and parents, so in person I gets my talking in. LOL

Tonight I found out one of my kids ((students)) in school is being charged with MURDER. I’m seeing these kids DIE or GOING TO JAIL. Everyday last semester I would find out that he was in trouble and would hem him up in the corner and tell him if he don’t stop being bad, he’s going to end up dead or in jail. This last time, we talked for a good 10 minutes, he didn’t want to hear a word I said, but he listened anyway. Promised that he would be good… but it was something in his eyes that told me different. I loved him because if he could just get that “life” out of him, he could be a good person. He always listened to what I had to say, and he always, always respected me. I can see that day so clear, like it was yesterday. Every time I saw him, I had a urge to get him in the corner and talk some sense into him. Its so hard seeing your kids going out like this, especially when you can see their future either way. So sad. Here is his story…. he’s the one in the middle. We have to KEEP on our kids. Even in passing and seeing teens on the streets…. speak life into their lives.. no matter what you see in their eyes. Speak life and pray for the best. So sad. CLICK ON THE LINK BELOW.

Paul suffered greatly during his lifetime– shipwrecks, beatings that left him near death, abandonment of friends, imprisonment, and eventually, execution. Scripture teaches us that all of us face  various forms of suffering in our lives. How can you withstand suffering? One way is to ask God to help you have Paul’s attitude of confidence that earthly sufferings cannot come close to comparing to the glory you will one day see.
