time to share - going to be blatantly honest

at times in our life we get discouraged, disappointed and struggle  with things- well I  am no different - just like all the rest of you- I go through those times and sometimes it just the overwhelming of life - being a mom- being in ministry - being the head of the household, working full time.
you get disappointed when people don't get you or don't understand where you are coming from- you get disappointed in people when they do things you don't expect- you get discouraged by things not working out the way you want- you struggle with things that you thought were not a problem-


so honestly-
have you ever been disappointed with people and did not know how to handle it- yep that is me- I thought or expected a difference but I guess I was wrong- no need to go into detail of what or who here- that is not important and I am sure I have disappointed people in my life as well-

 I have been discouraged by a support group I am trying to get off the ground and have gotten no responses until recently- it is my hearts passion to help those parents who have children with behavioral challenges- letting them know they are not alone- I want to be there for them, and show them there is an up side. I know the parents are out there- I know they think they are alone- I went through the same thing- how do I get help? where is help? how can I change to help my child?
Speaking to friends they are like it will come keep going after your dream your passion, some don't want to admit they need help or have issues.
struggles- I have a struggle that I have been working through- thought I was over it thought it was not a big deal-its not a horrible big deal just a struggle right now in which I know I will overcome- just at this moment its a little difficult and I am working through-  I often get teased or picked on about it- and I know people don't mean to hurt with there words but they have no idea at this moment in time its a struggle- I will overcome- its not as bad the struggle is getting better- so no worries
why in the world an I sharing well- you see all 3 of these things I have been dealing with for about a month or so and it was just piling up on me- you keep going you keep functioning but then it begins to take its toll on you - you begin to become undernourished, feeble, weak or as it was said this weekend dehydrated. Facing dehydration is not fun- been there physically and do not like it- pretty close emotionally and spiritually recently pretty close- wanted to walk away from it all- being honest here. nothing crazy. just stop the support group - stop being involved in ministry -oh I would pray and read the word but there was something missing- and I found it this weekend His presence. His presence is so powerful, so nourishing, so rejuvenating, so refreshing.
To be in His presence was the message last night and so thankful for it- to be in it to be refreshed by it.
Today's message was about the favor of God and the blessing of God- I so want His favor - not giving up on the dreams planted in my heart - no way-
So excited for what God has for me as an individual - my life- my family- my ministry - my heart
So excited for what God has for our church- God is going to do amazing things in the lives in which we come in contact with- I can not wait to see it all unfold in His timing.

I want to be overcome by his presence
