From handwritten journal August 7, 2017

Lord,

I am so thankful for everythinig I have - You, my family and friends, home, health, job. I thank you for giving me the desire to know You and serve You by serving others.

Lord, I pray for healing and better relationships with my precious children.

I am also praying that you would put a man in my life that loves me for who I am and that needs someone like me.

For those currently in it, regardless of whether they are meant for me as a mate or friend, I pray your blessings over them.

Forgive me when I stumble and fall short and as always, thank You for loving me anyway.

Lord, I know you know all that has happened.  It certainly wasn't what I wanted but I trust that You know better.  I am glad I found out the truth before I wasted anymore time or more of my heart. I know you know the awful things I said in the midst of my pain.  Some of it--they deserve.  And I do regret that I couldn't control my emotions or actions.  nothing excuses what I did.  And I'll do my best to make amends in time--though I doubt they care.  Right now they only forgiveness that matters to me is Yours for me and mine for those that hurt me.  I know You will deal with them.  I know that he didn't fit Your plan for my life.  I still need You to show me what Your plan is.  And I trust that You will.  Thank you for my family and friends that have stuck with me through this awful time.  Help me to stay off social media and anything else not meant for me to mend my heart, grow my faith or anything that takes my focus...

Day 1: Your family (Psalm 103:17-18)

Psalm 103:17-18 New International Version (NIV) 17  But from everlasting to everlasting      the  Lord ’s love is with those who fear him,      and his righteousness with their children’s children — 18  with those who keep his covenant      and remember  to obey his precepts. Lord, You know I have not done the best job as a mom. I like to believe that most of the time I did the best I could with what I had. I know I made MANY mistakes. I lacked patience. I focused too much on the wrong things. I wasn't the best example. But I did try. I loved them (and still love them) more than anything else. And almost every mistake I made came from wanting to raise them right. My prayer was always that they would have lives that were happy, well-adjusted and that they would know their purpose early and live for You.  I am so thankful that all were saved young and even though they aren't currently in churc...
