Faith and Courage

I just finished watching Julia and Julia what an awesome movie. It is funny that sometimes you watch something that you see your self in. Cooking saved Julia, and my writing has saved me. This is movie showed how impossible things can happen even to those of us who doubt through times in our lives. Jesus said nothing is impossible with God. Lately things we have been going through, I have doubted God and myself, but I realized nothing is impossible, even when we think it is. I realized I have lost Faith in everything lately, especially myself. I realized now the things I most wanted to do all my life I stepped away from because it scared me, but God has wanted me the last couple of months to face that fear. He knew I could do it, but I doubted I could. Writing has always been my gift that he gave me. I have written for my family lots of wonderful little stories. With courage He wanted to face writing for a larger audience and that has scared me. Today, I found the pinnacle in my life to save my self, God's loving hand reaching out and I am taking it. It will start with this blog and I will work my way to that book He wants me to write, which will probably changed me and my life. Sometimes adversity and the longer road is the road that teaches us the lesson we need to learn to grow and change. What an amazing revelation into one's life when you look at it through the eyes of God's love.

Governor and Voting

I rarely put up political posts but today I will.  Today my son voted for the first time in our NJ primary for governor.  It has saddened me...
