It’s Been 8 Years… Already?

I’ll be fully honest in sharing that I’m wearing a bit thin on the passion for words, of late. It is always darkest before dawn, God gently reminds me.

In the midst of the chaos of homelessness, came the anniversary of this website… 8 years!?

Since I had nothing to offer for today’s post anyways, I thought perhaps a look back might encourage my heart… and surprisingly, it did!

I found my very first post for this site, and decided to share it for anyone who might be interested in reading it. I realize that it isn’t thanksgiving yet, which is surprising, given that I struggle to know what day of the week it is, without looking at the calendar. So, consider the well wishes at the end of the post, sort of like an early blessing to you and your family this season.

While there is much that I’m choosing not to disclose, for your sakes, regarding our current situation… know that I am safe in God’s arms. Though my writings, of late, have been rather disjointed and somewhat fragmented, I’m eternally grateful for your loving support. They say that writing is extremely important in processing and handling our thoughts and emotions, and I couldn’t agree more at the moment! No matter what, I need to keep writing… anything really, as long as it is edifying and with loving intent.

You may not realize it, but the time spent on this site with all of you is so very important to me; your posts, your pictures, and your stories… they bring me comfort!

For this I thank each and every one of you, my sweet friends, for Journey With Me wouldn’t be worth the doing, if it weren’t for you!

God Bless you, all of you, and know that I love you with the love of God… and also with cookies!

  1. Being on a rightgeous path is not always easy. I remember times when I was living in a squat or sofa searching. I appreciate a bit of what you are going through.
    But you have a good relationship with the Boss, have a solid husband and new future in the offing. You are wealthy in comparison to people who have not woke up!

  4. I pray that the Lord gives you a breath of fresh air. I pray for prayers like that for myself at times. We both know we have those times in life. Especially dealing with our specific situations. I pray that God heals you where you need it. Also, for you to feel His comfort. He’s got you in the palm of his hand. I love you! Hugs
