My Girls

(Just wiped out an entry.  Grrr!)

My daughters are growing up and away.  I don't hear from them often any more, although I think of them every day.  That's as it should be, I know.  It is an adjustment!  I come home exhausted, and I don't get many tasks done in the evenings.  :(  Even as I sit here and type this, I know I should get up and do a load of laundry.  So I just did!

It surprised me that my allrecipes.com blog received comments!  Someone even said, "Great blog."  I am both proud and disapppointed by this reaction to my posts.  The pride is self-explanatory, I suppose.  The disappointment comes from now being aware that others are reading my writing.  That is why I keep this blog secret!  It's therapy for me.  May I be for myself what I want to be for my clients: accepting, nonjudgmental, wise, insightful, loving, understanding.

Lord, I titled this "My Girls."  They, of course, are important to me and perhaps two of the few most important people in my life.  I want them to be certain always that I am interceding for them with You.  I want them to be secure in that certainty.  Most of all, though, I want them to have an intimate, obedient relationship with You.  Will you grant my request?  Especially right now, will you lead YD to the right church in the big (bad) city?  I think that's my "worry" since I know how tempting it might be for her to become lazy in her faith.  Bless them both bunches.  In Jesus's name, AMEN!
