Rainy Sunday Morning

Thank all of you for your comments on my last post....You are such a caring group of friends.  I guess I want to add a comment to further explain what I was trying to say....Relationships grow and change and sometimes you can find yourself wanting to change certain aspects of a relationship but find it very hard to step out of the comfort zone that has been established.  Many different elements can play into the hesitation such as concerned about hurting someone else, concern the relationship will not be as close, etc.  Maybe using the word fear was a bad choice because I know there is no fear in the Lord.  I am seeking His guidance on this issue but change and leaving that comfort zone is still hard.  I am confident He will give me the courage I need as I really feel this whole situation is of Him and that He is giving me a boost to step up and step out of the comfort way of relating that has characterized the past...I might add that this is a very long and old relationship that means a great deal to me....

This is the little country church where my sweet fisherman attended as a child until we were married and moved away.  His great grandfather gave the land and his family have been active members for four generations.  Of course this is not the original church.  They replaced the old one many years ago.

Hugs and blessings,

Flying Free

Do you dream of flying free in some area of your life...I do....I ask myself what is holding me back...is it fear, either of someones opinion or even failure.  Do I let responsibilities get in my way or do I feel selfish in wanting to fly free. This is not about flying free outside of my relationship with God, it's about preconceived ideas that we live our lives by...You know those old voices that have directed your life.  For example, when people continue making the same decisions because they result in a life that is predictable rather than risk the uncomfortable feelings and consequences of different decisions...Flying free from the safe and comfortable.....

This is my "ponder" for today...I would love your feedback...

Hugs and blessings,

Nancy
