I can tell how long I've been gone by how many messages from RoboOp are in my inbox, lol. I can also tell it's been forever,, by hw far this thread went without me. Don't you know you're supposed to wait for me to come back before you make the thread run away again? Jk.
Anyway, I got rid of the mice (yay for having a cat that I actually like for once in a millennia). It's October in Wyoming, meaning that we're freezing our butts off at night, because we sleep through the wood stove burning out. I'm doing really great as a life coach, but it's been hard to keep up with it and school. I got a new car too! That was a HUGE blessing. So, my life has been awesome lately. Just n case y'all wanted to know.
I love you guys!

One of the hardest scriptures to live by.... :/
2 Corinthians 12:7-10
even though I have received such wonderful revelations from God. So to keep me from becoming proud, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger from Satan to torment me and keep me from becoming proud.
8 Three different times I begged the Lord to take it away. 9 Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me. 10 That’s why I take pleasure in my weaknesses, and in the insults, hardships, persecutions, and troubles that I suffer for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

Thus, you are asking for prayer, and even encouragement ... we all need that! So, let me encourage you girl!
"For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus." (Phil.1:6).
Abi - I pray this will be an open door to show God's glory in and thru you in how you continue to deal with the circumstance. I am confident that you have vested your life in Christ, thus just keep it up Sista! God's grace is the beginning and the end; man and woman's cooperation lies in the intermediate process linking them together. In laymen terms, "This ain't nuttin' but a thang in Christ Jesus! Trust your relationship with God that the painting you paint will be His painting for all to see, and just flow wit it!" Be encouraged Abi to just keep moving onward and upward as you rest in Jesus, He's got this from beginning to end, thus you got this from beginning to end!
(Philippians 2:12): ...The Voice (VOICE)
Paul describes a community where every person considers the needs of others first and does nothing from selfishness; it pulls together rather than pulls apart, and it is a body that knows its purpose and lets nothing interfere with it. It is an extended spiritual family where others line up to become part of this sacred assembly and to make it their home because they feel encouragement and know they are truly loved. So Paul urges the Philippians to strive for this radical unity and fulfill his joy by having the mind of Jesus who humbled Himself, became a servant, and suffered the death of the cross. Jesus becomes the example of humility and service, leading to the kind of unity Paul imagines.
12 So now, my beloved, obey as you have always done, not only when I am with you, but even more so when I can’t be. Continue to work out your salvation, with great fear and trembling,
