"Lord... give me the gift of faith to be renewed and shared with others each day. Teach me to live this moment only, looking neither to the past with regret, nor the future with apprehension. Let love be my aim and my life a prayer." ~Roseann Alexander-Isham

Interesting Week

Wow, the beginning of the week was turned into an Us vs. Them type thing. That was because someone spoke out with the truth and stirred things up. Praise Jesus this finally happened. I even spoke out when someone was ugly and evil to someone else. Therefore, putting me in the outs more than I was. Because of this my one ally and support tried to push me out of their life, and though it hurt.....I was persistent. She was trying to protect me. I told her that I was 37 and old enough to do what I wanted. I would rather do the right thing than be a people pleaser and accepted into the crowd. I don't give up on people I care about and believe in.......so some of you reading this better remember that.

The end of the week had a whole different feel to it. We were also given our contracts for next year today. We have a month before we have to turn them in if we are staying. I know that two people were not offered a contract for next year....this may be a reason for the different attitudes the past couple of days.

I got to talk with a friend for guidance and though I am not 100% sure what I will do for next year, I am leaning a little more to one choice than the other. I am going to keep it in prayer.

The best part of the week was getting a package. It brought so much joy to my heart. My class said they felt blessed to see my joy. The drawings, cards, and pictures reminded me what I left back in Denver. I also got a Christmas card from another friend. I can't believe how much mail can lift your spirit.
