I admit, that is something I struggle with. It just seems like if it's not one thing it's another, and I keep forgetting shouldn't stress. That God is big enough and faithful enough to pull me through even the stuff that seems incirmountable (hope I spelled that right since I'm typing to my english teacher :P). I'll try to keep that in mind the next time it feels like nothing more can go wrong...lol :)Hollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08775752467041283145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13590327.post-1162231196092019502006-10-30T11:59:00.000-06:002006-10-30T11:59:00.000-06:00Loved your post, inspires me to be a happy Christi...Loved your post, inspires me to be a happy Christian because I am so abundantly blessed and have NO reason to be a sad Christian!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07419020890623851354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13590327.post-1162223017515072292006-10-30T09:43:00.000-06:002006-10-30T09:43:00.000-06:00when we lived in plainwell we got a letter from an...when we lived in plainwell we got a letter from an area church inviting us to visit their congregation. they described themselves as 'friendly, happy people filled with the joy of Christ.' say it out loud. it's pretty funny. it made it even more hilarious to know that the pastor and his wife were not friendly or happy.mordyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10317314133939431416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13590327.post-1162180967792139232006-10-29T22:02:00.000-06:002006-10-29T22:02:00.000-06:00I think it's really weird that the post before thi...I think it's really weird that the post before this one is called happy blogger and i even use the word happy again in the dumb post! pathetic.Jeanniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14195076731575607511noreply@blogger.com
