When It Goes Up, It Must Come Down

It has been a really long weekend! If you go back to my last post from Friday you will see all the amazing blessings God gave me last week. This usually happens. I have some great things happen and then it goes down hill from there! How do you stop that? I have been praying earnestly about that and for God to give me patience and strength for my busy week ahead. I’ve got to pray more!!

Saturday I had to work from 8:30-3:30, then a birthday party and not home until about 9pm. Yesterday was church at 8am until 11:00. Then a birthday party at 2pm and after that VBS decorating. I feel like I have not been home at all! I did not walk into the door until 9:30 last night and went to get the dishes out of the dishwasher and the dishwasher is broken! So I pretty much went straight to bed. Although I didn’t sleep well at all, tossing and turning. And here comes the personal party… I woke up this morning at 5am with my not so friendly friend! The side affects of this has been getting worse and worse since I had my tubes tied almost 4 years ago. I didn’t need that today!!

Anyway, by 5:45 this  morning my hubby and the kids were in the car on their way to Grandma’s, so that I can go to work. They are not staying over night because we have VBS this week (ours is at night not during the day). My friend that I work with is picking me up at 7:30am and I won’t be home until 5pm. Then it’s rushing to get to VBS by 5:30 because the Youth have to be there early. And not home again tonight until about 9pm. Whew… it is going to be a long week!!!

The new site is coming along well, I just don’t know how much time I will have to work on it this week. I was also asked to do a review for a great friend and I have not sent it to her yet because I am unsure of myself, really. I’m not sure if it’s good enough, I’m not sure if it is right! It’s my first one too, so unfortunately I am very unsure of what or how to write it. As of right now, I am only working today and tomorrow but if they need me anymore this week I will definitely be doing it. I will try to keep a post up every day!

So really I guess I wrote this for you all to say a little prayer for me to get through this week. Last night, at church of all places… I could’ve snapped on someone but I bit my tongue. Not good! I would really appreciate it!! I am human and have my days too! Oh and sorry for the timeline, I just thought that would help you see how busy I am already! And as a good friend says, busy is not of God…it’s the Devil.

Have a great Monday!

  1. Christians are just humans, and we are so prone to failures! I certainly have my moments when I don't keep my attitude under control. Ugh.

  4. ok I tried to comment last night..guess it didn't work...now I have to remember what I said!! :)

    There are times in life when you just can't escape "busy". Just don't let it comsume you. Its just for a short period of time. Remember, God is still blessing you. That's what faith is all about. Trusting God even when life gets hard. You can do it!!
