Coping With Change
God is with me to guide, direct
and sustain me through all life's changes.
This is true, and I am experiencing changes already. With my son going to High School, becoming more independent, farther away from home, worries about his safety, I'm dreading when he starts dating, which is not too far away. As I get older, I find myself worrying about my husband's health and safety, more also. My own physical changes. The only way to cope is through God.
I want to take better care of myself because I want to be there for them. As a teen, I grew up in a tough neighborhood and I went to a tougher school, I must've had about five fights with other girls or group of girls in the first two years of Junior High School, and my mother wasn't always available, physically, for me, she was battling alcoholism, diabetes, and heart problems. Her answer to all of this was to take me out of school. I was the one who pursued my GED and later Business School on my own. I want to be there for my son if he ever needs me, both physically and emotionally.
Whew...all those thoughts triggered by a little morning message.
