Dear Heavenly Father,
I am so blessed.  In all these obstacles and hurdles, beacuse of you, I know there is a door.  With you by my side, I know I will find the knob in the darkness.
Amen
Thank you to everyone in my life...especially thr last couple days- K, C, and PM.  Each of you are above amazing and I appreciate the support. Sometimes there are moments it all seems too much and then I am reminded of how each struggle, each climb, each overwhelming moment, makes us learn a little more.  I am so grateful for the reminders.  As this week comes to an end, I am grateful that 13 years later, we have not forgotten.  I am grateful that my faith gets stronger every minute.  It is such an amazing feeling to feel my faith and belief getting stronger.  Over the years, it was just never clear to understand.  I am so blessed I found the courage to reach out.  I certaintly never thought I would have the courage to be an assistant let alone give a blessing with PM right there.  The encouragement is so overwhelming, thank you!!!
<3 Jen

Please pardon my delay in sharing my gratitude... I am so grateful to our Lord for giving me this amazing opportunity to live my life in a way that will Glorify and serve our Lord... I am so grateful and although do not always feel the "writing bug"...  I do each day and night remind myself of my attitude of gratitude.
Right from work, I was given the opportunity to watch Mackenzie in Karate action and see my son laughing and enjoying himself when asked to assist the younger group. (Later his group went and he earned his white belt) I am so proud of him!!!!  It is great to see them both enjoying this!!! Once that was over I was once again given the opportunity to look deep inside and find out more of what makes me who I am.  I may not respond well to this initially, but I really do appreciate the moments of clarity.
"What does nurturing mean to you?" Wow why is that so difficult to answer? "How do those words make you feel?"
Finally I was able to answer,
"Being given the opportunity to feel you matter to the person who is "nurturing" you". HMMM yeah, thanks C..... It was a good thing that HT's Healing Service was right after...  Dear Heavenly Father,Please look out for those who are in need, all who are returning to the classroom and especially help to calm the fears.  I know you hear all the prayers whispered in your ear and I ask that you provide me and those who are in need of answers, the guidance down the right path.  Amen
