"There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power."
Washington Irving (1783 - 1859)
"Jesus wept"
John 11:35
PS. I have temporarily opened my comment box if you would like to talk to me. I would love to hear from you, I don't want controversy though because what I am posting on here, for the most part, is my bleeding heart. I'm working too hard starting over and I don't need the added aggravation. BTW, do not write PM's because I do not have access to the e-mail connected to this blog. If you want to write to me privately please write to prisonerofhope1953@yahoo.com. Love you all, POH

i've been hearing not so great things from your sector. I know their all drilling you pretty hard...I'm so sorry. I still can't believe what all is happening. I love you Connie. Always will. I could never, ever forget about you.
I am so glad that you have turned your comments back on - Your strength is amazing - God is doing wonderful work in you life. You may not see it yet - but He is completing "YOU".
You have grown so much and I know that some growth has growing pains - and after you have time to look back on it all - you will see that it was worth it. Grow my friend and flex your God given power to be "all that you can be" - never let anyone - and I mean ANYONE - ever - limit you or tell you that you can't do it unless it is God.
Trust Him and your natural knowing that is His Holy Spirit - and you will never be wrong. That doesn't mean we won't make mistakes - but it does mean with mistake we all grow stronger against the devils influences. YOU GO GIRLFRIEND - SPRED YOUR WINGS AND FLEX YOUR GOD GIVEN POWER.
In my strong moments I know that what you say is true. That God is doing this spectacular work in my life. Teaching me.....growing me up....and comforting me all the while. In my weak moments I say, like I just said to Caleb......'why?'......'why?'.......'why?'
I cannot imagine rejecting someone I don't even love for doing something I don't agree with, let alone rejecting someone I purport to love. I don't understand....and the the fact that they won't communicate with me hinders my understanding. Without the understanding it hinders my healing.
I am moving on, Lookin', but I'm broken in a way that I've never been before. Thank you so much for your solid support and communication, even in this incredibly busy time in your own life. You are a dear, dear friend and I love you.
Thats all...
I agree with Caleb... nothing hurts more than to discover that the ones you loved - didn't truly love back. You, being a Mother knows what the meaning of "Unconditional love" means - That is why you still grieve - and why they don't ...
But You are the one ahead - because God loves you just that way and maybe that is why they don't understand that either - they don't know what it means to love
No one dies of a broken heart - that is a proven fact - Right?
I am happy you are accepting comments again. I have been reading your posts without an opportunity to comment.
In regard to today's post:
He who knows not and knows not that he knows not is a fool; avoid him.
He who knows not and knows that he knows not is a student; teach him.
He who knows and knows not that he knows is asleep; wake him.
He who knows and knows that he knows is a wise man; follow him. (Persian Proverb)
I've had that exact quote in my journal for a couple of years after having it on my refrigerator even longer. Thank you for reminding me.
Lookin' asked me to open my comment box so I did. The last time it was open though it was a firestorm over here so that is why I closed it I have to go to work in a minute so I won't be on for a while.
I know that many people consider that meeting people on the internet is a bad thing.....sometimes, when one is as enclosed as I was in my life, it is the only way to know people. I consider you my friend, Whit, and I thank you for being such a good one to me.
