i was talking to a good friend this morning at church & she mentioned the blog & i told her i just can't update it when i don't have positive things to say. we've had a bit of a stressful week at the dillan house. between job issues, illness, doctor's visits, things breaking down & just everyday life, mama feels stressed. when i feel stress i don't want to blog. now you know my little secrets. if there are no posts, i probably am under stress.
however, i also feel thankful. earlier this week i had the privilege of speaking to a friend who is going on a mission trip to kenya in the next few weeks. he emailed pictures of where he's headed. as i viewed the photos & saw the poverty & destruction i realize what luxury we live in. a little stress about the dishwasher, garage door & computer breaking down are so minor.
God also sent people to call me this week or visit me just when i needed it. i can count 7 for sure that had just the encouraging word i needed & weren't afraid to speak the truth to me in love.
i needed those gentle reminders & hugs.

God is our perfect example of faithfulness. He meets our needs and lots of times it comes in the form of his obedient servants.
