It is amazing how our needs are met not when we think we need them met, but when God knows we need them met. Thank you Jen for creating this blog and pouring your heart into it even through your busy mom life that we can all relate to. Moms are supposed to hold it all together all the time and the reality of it is that we need a safe place to feel eachothers emotions and that place is here. I miss you my friend, I miss our chats over starbucks or mexican food,I think of you all the time and pray that you are loving life and embracing every second like I know you can. Thank you for your friendship, strength, and words of wisdom in this crazy world of chaos and questions!Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06698816211417343387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5287164671697142345.post-75133976939743566832011-03-25T08:48:41.201-05:002011-03-25T08:48:41.201-05:00Thanks for this today, Jen, and thanks for sharing...Thanks for this today, Jen, and thanks for sharing. I have been reading "Angry Conversations w God" (as recommended by Carrie Ward Dils) and this fits right along with it. <br /><br />An in your face message to me? hmmmmmm.......<br /><br />And yes, Mumford & Sons has struck me as something new and entirely different, something to be interpreted by the listener (obviously not new) but tho none of the songs are overtly "happy" per se, all seem to have a feeling of strength, hope and redemption. I'll keep them with me as long as that is the message that I am getting =)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04078363145467938113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5287164671697142345.post-78494811837885786782011-03-25T08:47:02.441-05:002011-03-25T08:47:02.441-05:00Way to be transparent, jen.

I cried through my adjustments at the chiropractor, and through my rehab. Sure, some was because of the pain, but most of it was because I am so angry at how everything is going. I have spent time on my face crying out to God lately, yet I feel like he is not hearing me. My crying stopped when mommy adrenaline kicked in earlier after a call from the school nurse, but it is still there....waiting. Thank you so much, I really needed to read this. I will carry on, and get my kid to his baseball game. The laundry and house cleaning will still have to wait, because it all hurts too much.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17660898161134762991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5287164671697142345.post-22057231718150325612011-03-24T16:58:56.401-05:002011-03-24T16:58:56.401-05:00oh girl, have I pounded my fists on the tear stain...oh girl, have I pounded my fists on the tear stained floor before?! Thanks for being real, showing us that we aren't out here alone, that it's normal... okay... and that He will pull us up :) Thanks for being so brave to show your weaknesses, we are so hard on ourselves, feeling like we have to be strong, all on our own.... from the words of Gary Allen...life ain't always beautiful, but its a beautiful ride. "He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end."

Thank you for allowing our Father to speak through you to my heart. This was exactly what I needed today, and to think I almost didn't read it b/c it was going to take more than 10 seconds... but I did, and I am blessed. (You should have seen ME, about 30 minutes ago, crying over my dirty dishes b/c my 3 yr. old is fighting me on EVERYTHING and being defiant every time I turn around! :( ) I am holding on to these precious words from our Lord these days... I need to write them on a note card above my kitchen sink. :) *Hugs* ~TammyTammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17384165489509893444noreply@blogger.com
