Gotta start w/this...Lynz and my's nite out on the Plaza seeing...THE Pioneer Woman and not only her, Marlboro Man and the Punks, well the boys anyway. We had such a good time and even walked down to Brios for dinner and this was 8 something at nite!
And today is this daughter's BD . Dara Danielle.......Born to us 29 years ago this beauty was...not the dress....the dress was designed and created by her now husband...their wedding this past August was beautiful and so is she.
Granddaughter Emma and I get to go out to see her the first w/e in December and plan on shopping then for BD and Christmas easing the idea of not having them for the holiday into my very being.....
So beyond the blessing these 2 ladies are in my life...the first thing I read this morning is a TWEET from @petewilson: Ps 16:1 Protect me, God, for the only safety I know is found in the moments I seek you. ....the whole idea of moving doesn't make sense but to not see if it's of You sounds even worse...we do/we are in this seeking You and feeling: 2 Cor. 7: 11-13
more alive
more concerned
more sensitive
more reverent
more human
more passionate
more responsible
These for the Corinthians resultant from Pauls letters calling them on the carpet...the whole TRUTH hurts thing and when it hurts, what do I do; no more running, no more quitting...do I stop fighting??
IN the fight the inevitable losing I have found so much GRACE...and GRACE is You and that leads to repentance.....to live in repentance and GRACE ...DRENCHED
2 Cor. 8 vs. 2 'Trial exposes our true colors'

Thinking about moving..FIGHT...my true colors are I am a fighter...I tell myself better than a quitter, a cut and runner...but is it simply the other extreme...
If it happens Abba, when it happens please drenched and infused w/Grace to be honest and.....to give myself like Abraham, unreservedly to You vs 5
vs.12 The heart regulates the hands. ...IF my heart is seeking You and Your will the hands - body w/follow right??
soooo...pretty much everything I read pertains to THIS situation...To simply rest in You're in it and follow seeking You every step of the way...because...Ps 16:1 Protect me, God, for the only safety I know is found in the moments I seek you.
And then another TWITTER.....Why would we need to experience the Comforter if our lives are already comfortable? -Francis Chan....I very much NEED YOUR comfort today Abba.... would love the comfort of people when I need YOURS.....
