My creative abilities, my serving abilities, my silent abilities. What if I declared myself present in them and refused to let sloth, fear and greed (or any other "corporate" behavior of mine) remove me from this one life of mine?Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05147416487171740144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3907440527168314545.post-52099856378085123242011-12-22T03:04:16.510-05:002011-12-22T03:04:16.510-05:00Patience?

The operative word in a life after loss, or surgery, or anesthesia, or any other big change. (Or, in your case, all of the above.) My word has been "endurance", and that has taken me 3.5 years, and I may not be done with it yet. <br />I loved catching up on all your life stage Christmases, and seeing God with you through it all, gradually creeping into your consciousness as you grew. What a gentle, polite friend He has been to you, yet fully there with big arms to enfold you when you needed Him most. <br /><br />You sent some new readers my way yesterday. Thank you for your sweet words about me and my post.<br />Much love, dear Robin. You have been such a help to me...<br />Praying healing and peace over you. <br />Karen EASTAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3907440527168314545.post-62541129352421587642011-12-21T00:08:00.252-05:002011-12-21T00:08:00.252-05:00Robin, patience is a good word for 2012.

It reminds me of Psalm 46:11: Be still and know that I am God.<br /><br />It is especially important that you be patient with yourself and remember that if you need to rest, it is an opportunity to be still with God.<br /><br />God bless, LyndaLyndahttp://metanoia-mrc.blogspot.com/2011/12/patience.html#comment-formnoreply@blogger.com
