Wow........it's been absolutely ages since I've been on here........you know how sometimes life just jumps right up and you have no time for anything else, well, that's where I've been.
My darling nanny spent the best part of 4 months in hospital from late march until early July, I tried to see her as much as I could, help look after my grandad too and only gave myself some weekends off for church and functions at church.........my younger sisters baby was born at the end of June and 3 days later my nanny died........we had a church conference booked, a trip away, the funeral to attend and I had to do a reading, there was a health scare with my husband and I came close to losing him.........we attended the youth conference where we served and had to camp (i don't do camping usually)........my daughter went off on her rock climbing holiday.......we visited friends who had moved away as they were struggling in their marriage.........and then we had to get ready for my daughters return to school - shes started her last year and its the big one!!!!!
But through all this, the one thing that has kept me strong and together is God. He is the rock on which i build my life......no matter what i face, there is nothing too big for God, events in life may overwhelm me, but my God is solid and with myself firmly rooted in Him, I can borrow his strength to carry me through the tough times.......
The Wise and Foolish Builders
"Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house;yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash."
