Returning back to Colorado after being with family for several weeks, is pretty difficult for me. Its not that I don't love Colorado and my friends here but being a Mom, leaving children and their families is so hard for me. Having the personality that God gave me doesn't help. (I want to fix everything and sometimes want to fix things that are really not broken) Sam and I miss being with family and especially the grandchildren. We are so proud of our children, their spouses and their children. There are so many wonderful things I could tell about each one of them, but getting back to the type of Mom I am, I have trouble sometimes taking things upon myself to do to fix instead of letting God. Yesterday's devotion in the book "Jesus Calling" that Sharon gave to Sam for Father's Day was meant especially for me. It begins by saying "Entrust your loved ones to Me; release them into My protective care. They are much safer with Me than in your clinging hands. As you entrust others into My care, I am free to shower blessings on them. My presence will go with them wherever they go and I will give them rest. Watch to see what I will do." Ephesians 3:20 says "Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine according to His power that is at work within us"
I was listening to the radio this morning and heard a song that I had not heard before which spoke to me and wanted to share the name of it and the artist. The artist is Mikes Chair and the name of the song is "Someone Worth Dying For". I would put it on my blog, but don't know how at the moment.
Thinking about Will, Ellie, Denise and Byrum as they begin a new school year. Can't wait to hear all about it!
