Lets Get started again!

   Hi ladies,  I have missed you!  Ready to get started....again?   RE-START.   Begin again.   I always need new fresh starts.  I know we all do. I'm gonna try to make this short.....so you can read....and then post your wonderful verse for the month!!!!!

  I am tempted to sometimes  look back on how things used to be .......and then grieve the loss of the good things of the past that are no longer a part of my present.  Missing old friends, family who are no longer here .....just a plain old.....

                                 "Those were the good old days".....mentality.

I work to push those thoughts out of my mind and heart.  And try to focus on the awesome work of God present in my life.   ........ I know that we all struggle with those thoughts from time to time ( and especially after great loss of some kind.)   We wish it could go back to the way it used to be when,  ....." my health was better,  or I had more free time.....or a that same job ,   before my friends moved....or I moved or when "so and so" was still living."                   And the list goes on.

I have a great verse that reminds me to live in he present....in the moment.....in today.  With lots of Hope for the future. (It's the one I have been trying to learn since school started for Miss Emily and Amy......but now I get to do it with you girls and "get-er-done!!")

                           So my verse.......

                      " Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past.  See, I am doing a new thing!
                          Now it springs up: do you not perceive it?  I am making a way in the wilderness
                            and streams in the wasteland."  Isaiah 43:18-19

Love His promises.......!   So glad I have you to do this with me......to keep me accountable too!  Place your pretty 3x5 cards in your car.....kitchen counter....on your desks and lets let HIS WORD dwell in our hearts!  Don't forget to post your verse!
