Moving...

Hey, I am still here. Just wanted to let you all know I may not post much for the next couple of weeks. I have to be out of where I am living in 2 weeks and I still need to get approved for where I am moving to... and find a job that pays enough to live on... and continue to deal with the emotional fallout from coming to terms with past abuse.... and I am a little fried, a little tired, and a little scared. Prayers would be appreciated. ;-) 


I will still check in on y'all fairly often - leaving comments here and there, but I may not have the emotional energy to post much for a little bit. Plus, in the process of moving, I may not have internet access for a bit.....


Here's a couple (or three) of my current favorites....

Pretty Amazing Grace - Neil Diamond


Wherever God Shines His Light - Van Morrison & Cliff Richards
(Couldn't find a live video...)



And....

Kyrie - Mr. Mister
(Kyrie Eleison = "Lord Have Mercy" in Latin)



Enjoy....

Katherine, I'll be praying for you. Even good things like moving still bring stress into our lives. I've moved enough to know!

May peace fill your heart during this time in your life.

Thanks ;-)

Erin said...

I wish you the best. Never in our lives do we think we have too much stuff until we have to move it.

Peace to you.

Jeannette Altes said...

Thanks, Erin. Over the last few years, I have gotten rid of so much - haven't had a home for 17 years. :/

But I do have a piano I'm trying not to have to give up. But I have no furniture... ah, starting over.... ;-)

I was just about to start praying when I felt I should stop by....

.. so if you feel your ears burning, you know that He and I are talking about you. You KNOW that I sympathise with the moving bit ick.

Katherine, I'm praying too. I'm excited about this new adventure you're moving into but I do know change brings a lot of stress at times. I hope you'll be back online soon. I'll miss your ecouraging posts and comments.

Katherine - I don't know your story, but I emphathize with you on many levels (abuse victim, the stresses of moving, having to start over). I'm adding your name to my prayer list.

What more sublime delight than to mingle tears with one whom the hand of heaven hath smitten! ...This world abounds indeed with misery; to enlighten its burden we must divide it with one another. --Thomas Jefferson

Hang in there.

Katherine,
Hello! I am happy to have found your Blog page off of Aida Carter's. I've also recently become a commentor on The God Journey Forum (www.thegodjourney.com). I have also seen several of your posted comment's on Darin Hufford's Free Believers site. I, too, have some of my own. I'm "AmyinSurprise."

I hope you have a safe and smooth move. I, certainly, have moved enough times myself to be able to relate.

In any case, I look forward to reading more of your posts here on your page. You have quite a lot of wonderful thoughts & ideas here!

When you get settled into your new home, feel free to drop me an email.
