yea though I walk....

I haven't been blogging as much as I would want to, not that my life has turned out the way I want to...but here I am, feeling as if I am still in the valleys...Well, maybe topographically the ground has heightened slightly, maybe it isn't that dark anymore, but I know I am not out of it yet.

A few nights ago, I thought to myself as things got worse between me and my adversaries...they were not on the offensive, maybe that is what gave me more foot on the ground, just that communication is down to almost zero. Its as if the valley does not hurt anymore, just that the weather has changed, it was getting colder and uncomfortable.
Why is it that 'change' is taking so long, why is it that God merely gave us a little eye-opener (the little light at the end of the tunnel) why is it that God still haven't showed us the job that my husband would be given or as a bonus, the house that we yearn for?

But God opened up a verse for me:

Psalm 4:3-8

"see how the Lord has made great his mercy for me, the Lord will give ear to my cry.
Let there be fear in your hearts, and do not sin;have bitter feelings on your bed, but make no sound
Give the offerings of righteousness, and put your faith in the Lord
There are numbers who say, 'who will do us any good? the light of His face has gone from us'
Lord, you have put joy in my heart than when they have when their grain and their wine increased.
I will take my rest on my bed in peace, because you only, Lord, keep me safe."


God, numb me from pettiness and give me a thankful heart to trust You. Help me keep my peace and spread it, heal me from the pain of bitterness and disappointment, renew me with your joy....amen
