Yay for Friday!! Time for the kind of writing where you open up your thoughts and let them all spill out on the page screen. No editing. No overthinking. Just let it spill out, and see what you get. The thing that makes it fun is that you can only write for 5 minutes. No cheating! ;) So let's see what you've got bottled up in that head of yours. Then hop over to Lisa-Jo's place. She's always got brownies, a comfy couch and lots of ladies just waiting to encourage you. Link up and make sure you take the time to visit a couple of posts before yours and extend them some comment grace. It's all about encouragement. We can all use some of that, right? Here's my five on DANCE.... Life’s a dance you learn as you go. Anybody remember who wrote that song? It has left me. It’s in the vault, I just can’t put my hands on it this morning.

Today I’m mapping new ground. I’m going two hours away with complete strangers. This is so far our of my comfort zone it’s not even funny. Don’t get me wrong. I’m no recluse.

Pray for me today, Tracey <>< Yay for Friday!! Time for the kind of writing where you open up your thoughts and let them all spill out on the page screen. No editing. No overthinking.

Hello out there! Anybody else out there fighting for their family? I’m in the fight, and right now I’m feeling pretty battered. I have a confession. For a while now, I’ve been focusing on MY time with God. I’VE been spending time with God. Time in His Word. Reading, praying, and communing. Your probably saying, “Yeah, so what’s wrong with that?” Well, the thing is, while I’ve been getting MYSELF in the Word, I’ve let our families devotion time go lacking. Ok, I’m being honest here, so I’ll just lay it out there and tell you that it’s been over a year since I’ve sat down and had a devotion with my girls. Man, that sounds a whole lot worse in print. I’ve talked to God about this and He is showing me how to reclaim family devotions….how to fight for my family. So we started last night. I had my devotion all ready. I even printed out a color sheet for little bit so that she could follow along. I got them all rounded up and ready. I started by apologizing to them for not up
