Letting go .....

... of things and letting God handle them is a hard thing to do. I'm struggling with it. I pray for relief from burdens and I feel fine for a few moments and then, it returns and I ask myself, "Why is this burden that I just prayed to God to carry for me returning?"

Someone said that it is because I am not focusing on God like I should be doing. That in those for moments when it is lifted, I'm focusing on Him so, He carries it for me. When I am not, it falls back on my shoulders. I'm having a very hard struggle with the whole "Let go, and let God" thing. I know that to some people my world might look at peace and put together but, its not. Those who now me know how my word has been turned upside down and rolled over a few times. I'm learning to hand things over to God. Its hard. In my struggle, I am having to constantly ask God to take away this or that burden and he does ... when I keep my focus on Him.

Just as I am typing this a certain verse came to my mind. It is found in Isaiah 26:3. It reads: "Thou will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You" !!

That is exactly what I need to be doing! Trusting in Him!!! If I can just learn to trust God in ALL THINGS and not just in some things, I will be doing great.

Another erse just came to my mind!! Its is found in 1Peter 5:7. It reads: "... Cast ALL your cares upon Him for he cares for you"

You know, there is no use in fighting God in what he tells me to do! He tells me to trust in Him and to cast ALL (not just some) my cares on Him. All because he cares for me!!

Sorry (although not really) to have been preachy! I sure did need to write this out though and there was no better place to write it out then on my blog!! I feel so much better!!! I hope that someone has been blessed by reading this!

I'm posting this song because when I heard it, it was like it was meant for me and my life personally and I just wanted to share it


You hold my every moment

You calm my raging seas

You walk me through the fire

And heal all my disease

I trust in You, I trust in You

I believe You’re my Healer

I believe you are all I need

I believe

And I believe You’re my portion

I believe You’re more than enough for me

Jesus You’re all I need

You old my every moment

You calm my raging seas

You walk me through the fire

And you heal all my disease

I trust in you, Lord I trust in You

I believe You’re my healer

I believe You are all I need

Oh, I believe

I believe You’re my portion

I believe You’re more than enough for me

Jesus, You’re all I need

Nothing is impossible for You

Nothing is impossible

Nothing is impossible for You

You hold my world in Your hands

Nothing is impossible for You

Nothing is impossible

Nothing is impossible for You

You hold my world in Your hands

I believe, You’re my healer

I believe You are all I need

Oh, yes You are, yes You are

And I believe You’re my portion

Lord, I believe You’re more than enough for me

Jesus, You’re all I need

Jesus, You’re all I need

You’re my Healer

The Art of Letter Writing ~ Courting Customs in America

Imagine a young couple, very much in love and living miles apart from each other. In the era before the invention of the telephone, the only means of communication was letter writing.

Letter writing was considered a form of courtship. It was a manner in which a suitor would try to secure the respect and consideration of the person whom he corresponded with.

The rules for letter writing included proper regard for composition and naturalness of expression.

LETTER WRITING RULES:

1. Write letters often

2 Wait for a response before dashing off another correspondence

3. Keep the particulars to a minimum

4. If you are 'familiar' with the corespondent, openly but properly express the feelings

5. Pay attention to whom the recollection of the heart be garnered


** While there were certain exceptions, correspondence was to be conducted only with the consent and approval of the parents **

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As a rule, the love was to be very guardedly written. Ladies, especially, were advised to be very careful to maintain their dignity when writing them.

No man, who was declared to be a gentlemen, would ever boast of his love conquests, among companions or reveal to others the correspondence between himself and a lady

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When February birds do mate, You wed nor dread your fate
