Dealing With "STUFF"

Gee, it's been ages since I blogged but have some pretty good reasons (or excuses). I've been dealing with a lot of stuff -- depression, etc. -- and even yet do not have a handle on it. However, I'm on a plan so maybe before long I'll be able to report victory. If you've never experienced depression, I pray that you never will. If you have, then you can relate to where I am and know that I need your prayers. I'm surrounded with family and friends who are doing just that for me and am so thankful God has placed them in my life. There's no reason I can think of that brought this on as I have a wonderful family, friends, job, home, automobile, finances, and all the necessities for living a good life. Maybe it's just a test God is putting me through to prune me for bigger and better things. When this is all over, I will be glad to use it for His glory if He so desires. It has rained all day today, so I've not been out of the house. I've watched TV, read my Bible, been on the computer, prayed, and talked on the phone to family and friends. I'm hoping I can spend the night by myself tonight without having to have someone come over the stay with me. I am on a mild antidepressant, but it hasn't had time yet to get into my system. Maybe in another week it will kick in and make a difference. So, between now and my next blog, I covet your prayers. Until next time, I love you.....Mom.
