Hi There

I haven't been able to tap into my blogger friends sites and this is my second attempt to create an entry. I'm up in the mountains and using a cell phone's internet connection. I miss yall! Skiing is beautiful in these God-made gorgeous mountains. I'm here with my first (only) husband, and children ages 15, 13, 12 and 9. I completed a 4 hour continuing education course. I've been cooking dinner every night and it has been fun. I've been reading my Bible Study notes, "When God weeps," by Joni Eareckson Tada, re-reading parts of Blackaby's "Experiencing God," Oswald Chambers "My Utmost for His Highest," and writing in my journal. Oh yeah, going to bed early and sleeping in late!" I miss y'all and am looking forward to being able to communicate with you on your sites.
"Dear Jesus, You say 'blessed are the poor in spirit.' I am poor in spirit. Why am I ashamed to say that I need You, and that I long for Your fullness? It is true. You have blessed me so much and I thank You, but Your presence is my greatest longing. I am a fish out of water without You here bodily. Yet, You have blessed me so much. Continue still more. Amen"
