More thoughts...

I wish that weeks and weekends were sometimes longer so that I could get everything done that needed to be done and then turn around and have ample time to spend with my family. 


I have a bad habit of not believing in myself. I sometimes set limits for myself that are ridiculous. I've never not completed a school project because I couldn't do it or failed horribly at anything. From here on out I have decided to realize from the get go that any and everything is very possible and that there are no limits.


I care deeply about things big and small that are important to me. I am also very sensitive regarding most of these things. I don't like to see or hear someone put something down if it means that much to me. I have made the comment to people before in certain situations that I care too much. I can't help it, it's just who I am. If I died tomorrow and people remembered me as a caring person, I think I would be ok with that.


I don't have a lot of free time but when I do I like to be with people that I care about. Sometimes I make time for them knowing the whole time that later on I'll be spending a sleepless night to make up for it. I don't consider going to church on Sundays as making time for God, it's already his time. If I didn't go I would be the one losing something. My sanity, my ability to take on everything that I do, or worse lose everything. 


 I try my hardest to be open minded about as much as possible. However when I know in my heart that something is right, I'll stand for that. I don't think closing your mind to somethings is necessarily always a bad thing, you just have to know what those things are and where you stand.


I am by no means a saint, but no one is. I try, not always hard enough, but I try none the less. I pray, sometimes I forget to bless a meal, but when  I do, I thank Him for everything. He is my saving grace.


That last line brought back the memory of a song that I loved when I was younger....
    "For grace flows down from above and faith requires a selfless love,
                 for a world that's dying to see the hope in you and me..." 


Point of Grace sings it and the name of it is Saving Grace.....I'm not sure how it fits in with what is weighing on my heart today and what I have written about. As Christians I think we should have it in us to care for people and issues. We should want to share the hope and grace that God gives us. People should see it in us.  Maybe me caring so much is my way of showing the hope that still exists....because it does and always will....


I have to apologize I know my blogs are usually  not serious like this, but I just had it on my heart.
I hope your Friday is filled with smiles and that your weekend is wonderful. My sister is a senior maid tonight on the homecoming court at her high school and I absolutely cannot wait to see her! I love her to the stars and back! I'll post pictures as soon as I get a chance! :)
