Hi Group,
I have not been online much at all over the last year. I have been extremely busy with work and took on a new project that has taken up a great deal of my time.
My project is still ongoing, but coming to somewhat of an end soon. Actually, it will create a bit more work for me down the road, but it will be more manageable and less stressful, if that makes sense.
A lot has happened over the last year.
God is so wonderful to hear our prayers and grow us into He wants us to be. I am so very thankful and humbled.
I want to thank each of you.
Suzie
I have not been online much at all over the last year. I have been extremely busy with work and took on a new project that has taken up a great deal of my time.
My project is still ongoing, but coming to somewhat of an end soon. Actually, it will create a bit more work for me down the road, but it will be more manageable and less stressful, if that makes sense.
A lot has happened over the last year.
- I went to Israel for 10 days in February. It was a wonderful trip and such a beautiful land to visit. It was not what I was expecting. Although, I do not even know what I was expecting, honestly.
- I went with 54 other people so I met new people and got to know my pastor and his wife personally. They are such good authentic christian people. I really love them.
- I joined a small group led by a couple who was on the trip with us. I really like them a lot.
- I have grown as a christian so much....
- God has healed my heart from hurts from my ex-husband. This is a huge blessing as I truly believe I had a form of PTSD. I could not be around men who yelled or were loud. I heard a man yell at a woman once in a parking lot and it gave me so much anxiety. It was stressful because I carried this around quietly and did not discuss it with anyone. I no longer feel this way, but I do choose to not be around men like that.
- God has healed my heart from feeling unloved. I now fully understand who I am and what God says about me.
- I have 100% forgiven my ex-husband for everything. I wish him well and I pray for him often (used to pray for him daily). I pray God heals him and he is able to love a woman the right way God intended. I pray he turns his life over to God fully. I really want to see him blessed and I pray God will send him a wonderful Godly woman who will love him. I hope she has children will love him, too, so he can experience being a dad as a christian man. He never really raised our son. He was never around for him. I do pray his relationship with my son will grow. My son forgives him and loves him, but their relationship is a bit strained i think.
- God has Grown me as a leader in my office.
- My office bible club has been meeting for over 2 years, I think. God has really been blessing us and growing us together and individually. It's a blessing to have these people and friendships in my life at work and personally. We have all become so much closer. We started this book club so we could grow and our number one goal was to become TRANSFORMED. It is happening to each one of us before our eyes. It's amazing and we are all humbled by it.
- GROWTH GROWTH GROWTH... it's been an amazing journey of growth and deeper fellowship with believers.
God is so wonderful to hear our prayers and grow us into He wants us to be. I am so very thankful and humbled.
I want to thank each of you.
