Ain't gonna find, no place to hide, but in You my God!

I am enjoying this place so much today. I wonder how I will ever leave the complacency.

Oh how I love these kids. I miss them. I wish i was talented.  
TROUBLE WON'T GO
Timothy Floyd Thornton, Aaron Strumpel, Robin Pasley

Trouble won't go, peace won't stay 
Oceans roar, levees break
Trouble won't go, peace won't stay
Bridges fall, earth gives way

Ain't no refuge, but You my God
Ain't no safe place, but in Your arms
I'm gonna be still

Trouble won't go, peace won't stay
Land mines wait where children play
Trouble won't go, peace won't stay
In this old world, no safe place

Ain't gonna find, no place to hide, but in You my God!

Wake up, God, move yourself,

Today has been an interesting day so I figured I needed to remember the good.

I love when...
Noodle says he's mine.
My friends call me Bethy or Amanada calls me Any.
Noodle thinks he knows how to do some thing.
Ra tells me her stories that have no point.
Bacon talks about balls.
The brother stands next to me and stands as tall as he can. Yes he is quite a bit taller then me.
Sis tells me how to take care of her babies.
Noodle mimics what I say esp the tone. I have taken to screaming things or saying things like a crazy person when he is around.
I get a day off to drink tea and hang out with the buddies.
I get a day off to drink tea and be alone.
The boys are at my house.
I actually have time to throw dinner parties.

These days I feel a bit overwhelmed and ill-equipped. The promises of the LORD are true and He will prove faithful.

Psa 18:30 As for God, His way is perfect; The word of the LORD is proven; He is a shield to all who trust in Him.

2 Sa 22:31 "As for God, his way is perfect. All the LORD's promises prove true. He is a shield for all who look to him for protection.

Phl 1:6 being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ;

Dying or killer immune system?

So here's the thing I work in this hospital where people die. They get better and live too but the definitely die.

I am pretty sure I am either going to die of some incredibly awful and gross disease or I have a super immune system and will live forever.

Nurses are gross and should be avoided...


Just saying.

Oh how heart wrenching.

"This love is not sentimental but heartwrenching, the most difficult, and the most beautiful thing in the world" -Shane Claiborne

I once thought I knew how to love. I actually thought I was pretty good at this thing called love. But only sometimes I don't fail. The message from the beginning is that we should love each other. It shouldn't be this difficult. Do I even rememeber His love?

I am practicing being and not just doing.
