Build your life...


It was the summer I turned 50. I wasn’t excited at all about this season, about turning fifty, about passing middle age and sliding down the slippery slope to senior citizenship. I wasn’t excited about my place either. I felt stuck and I was angry and bitter about being stuck. As a wife and as a mother, as a grandmother and as a pastor’s wife, if felt like my whole world was affected by others and their decisions and choices. I felt tired, hopeless, used up and dried up. I was consumed with resentment over people and circumstances that I couldn’t change, and I was convinced that because of my circumstances there was no hope for a vibrant future for me.... (join me here for the rest of the story. This week I have the privilege to be guest posting at Diane Bailey's.)
