I too , get caught up in the " I " stuff in life . How come it's gotten so easy to put off the people we love/love us the most in life . . . and just let them know how much they matter to us ~ personally . To let them know how much their efforts are really appreciated and valued !<br /><br />Thanks for your courage in writing this post , Leigh ! You're always so honest ...even when it hurts or is not easy to push the "publish" button !

My Mama taught me manners - yes, mam, thank you etc. I sent out invitations to Chris' Graduation cookout last year. I go 6 RSVPs. But not knowing how many were coming, I prepared food for all those invited. We had a lot of leftovers!! It is only common courtesy to let someone know whether or not to expect you. As you know, I did let you know as soon as I got your invitation that I would not be able to attend. My Mama would be proud of me!! Keep up the good blogs.<br />We also rescued a puppy the same weekend you did. But we decided to keep the one we rescued. Great little dog. Can't wait for you to see it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8821902352475716451.post-5267277201157898912010-05-25T08:22:36.493-04:002010-05-25T08:22:36.493-04:00Guilty as charged....I did RSVP this morning even ...Guilty as charged....I did RSVP this morning even before I read this:)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12134333860661610567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8821902352475716451.post-23052762370796074472010-05-25T08:12:01.401-04:002010-05-25T08:12:01.401-04:00Geesh, Leigh...

It is hard when you don't know what the next test is going to be, what the results, not to mention the bills, getting off work, etc. etc. Noise my friend. Lots of noise.

And just when that began to settle down, I began showing symptoms of what they later pre-diagnosed as MS. Then came the tests, and the waiting, and the bills.<br /><br />And it's good to hear that God is still guiding, and still in control. I know it all in my mind, and others from my church keep repeating it to me. But hearing it from someone else who's "on the court" just like me... well, somehow it just means a little bit more. So far, He's been using this to pull me closer to Him, and it's a wonderful feeling.Megan Hutchingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17733415015261483354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8821902352475716451.post-90018916268618945602010-03-20T00:49:24.227-04:002010-03-20T00:49:24.227-04:00I know deep in my heart that we can't disappoi...I know deep in my heart that we can't disappoint God, but sometimes it really hurts to think we might have. I know it's satan...but it takes strong will to beat him back down to where he belongs. God knows what a bad decision I made and will make again (more than likely), and yes like WH said it is comforting to know that God knew what I was going to do and He had already figured it out for me. I just have to learn to let it go and count on His grace. Thanks for the wonderful post.

But, that same God who can't be disappointed is the same God who always FORGIVES AND FORGETS. :)<br /><br />He's done with it and we should be too... though I have some stubborn cobwebs to eliminate.
