Hi Karin, Is that YOU in the picture???? I have a feeling it is... Great picture.... That statement is hard, isn't it????? My best friend and I are kinda on the "OUTS" now because she has made some choices and decisions that I disapprove of. I love her --but I can't change her... It hurts!!!!!
Betsy, it's not such a clear shot, but yes, that was me last Christmas!This was an anonymous quote I found and thought it was definitely necessary for me to remember that! God is still at work changing me - I can't seem to do it myself!
Through all the circumstances of life, the mountain-top experiences and the deepest valleys, I have found Jesus Christ to be the same. HE is all I need! As He lives His life IN me to achieve His Will, I am totally amazed that He can work THROUGH me at the same time. I want to be a shining example of His love and grace to others.
The love of my life, Peter, died in May of 2013. I am mother of 3, mom-in-love of 3, grandmother of 10, great grandmother of 2, sister, cousin, aunt, niece, colleague and friend. Did I forget one, lol?? I am blessed beyond expectation. Updated 2020.
What an honor it is to receive awards and tags from fellow bloggers! I'm grateful and thankful for all those who have sent one along my way. But, and you knew there would be a but, didn't you, I have deleted all those I have received and have decided to not participate in any more. I simply feel that it would be another thing with which I need to keep up - and that would be self-inflicted pressure I can't handle. I can't even keep up with writing and posting as much as I would really like. I love READING your blogs and sometimes making a comment, much, much more than I love writing anyhow! Thank you so much for your understanding, support, kindness, and bloggy love I've been shown! God bless! Hugs, Karin

I really like this variation of the prayer. I need to remember it every day.

Very well said.The wisdom to know that I am the one needing change is often not easy to accept.
