I'm only three weeks away from turning 45, yet I wonder how much I have spiritually grown over the past five years. Thank you for your ardent research and pouring out your authentic self into this series.angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00688991209865856563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-15052700827736362142016-03-28T09:15:15.569-04:002016-03-28T09:15:15.569-04:00Oh friend, you have really touched me with this po...Oh friend, you have really touched me with this post. When I read this part: "It is time to spend time focusing on the truth, if I say I'm not ____________ enough then I am saying Jesus is not enough. Because if I have Him in my heart - God sees His enough-ness when He looks at me. It's time for some truth telling, friends." I orginally read this last night and I had to stop, take a deep breath and have a long conversation with Chuck. I have a huge battle with the I am not good enoughs and the thought of telling Jesus he isn't enough stopped my in my tracks. I fell asleep pondering your words and am still pondering them this morning. Thanks for speaking the truth!!<br />Wendihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02547001714523524390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-88205992128610455562016-03-28T08:35:22.173-04:002016-03-28T08:35:22.173-04:00Ooh, Monica, I love this! Not because you're ...Ooh, Monica, I love this! Not because you're struggling, but because I know I have thought in the past that you have it all together. I heard that song this morning that the chorus goes something like, "I don't need my name in lights, I'm famous in my Father's eyes, make no mistakes, He knows my name." It is the second part of the song that I just love. He does know us, love us, we are enough! All the other junk is just lies from the enemy. I had to talk myself out of a pity party yesterday because a missionary family came in town for a funeral, and I am going to get to go and serve with them this summer, so I went up and tried to talk to them at church and so many other people kept coming up, so we got interrupted. Eventually, I walked off, because it felt uncomfortable just standing listening to others' conversations. I started feeling sorry for myself, but I had to console myself with the fact that they weren't there to see me, and that the people who kept coming up, they already had relationships with, etc. It helped me to see that it probably wasn't personal, but I did let it set my day up for frustrated feelings, and hurtfulness. I don't even know how I got sidetracked with all of this, other than to say I think it's good sometimes to share our struggles. You are not alone...<br />Elise Elisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00669663704444452161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-69689297593459864082016-03-27T21:59:54.160-04:002016-03-27T21:59:54.160-04:00Wonderful, Monica!

I get it, we often compare and think in our own heads she has it together or fill in the blank. You are honest about what ever your struggling with and that is what I LOVE about you. It is refreshing. Often Satan works on my mind at night when I am trying to sleep and it is a real struggle for me. Jesus loves Monica and he choose you to tell your story and minister to others. Don't believe Satan's lies, you are loved and enough friend. His Grace and Mercies are yours friend.

I've had to make difficult decsions (one to send my boys to Christian School in the fall)...and how much pain and illness I'm I willing to live with... I hung up my running shoes...and replaced it with going to bed earlier...I have to guard sounds coming into my head so closely, that even church can just be too much... these were lessons a long time coming... God's knocked down idols only to have me set them back up... and now, I think he's just asking me to stop..rest..stop trying to dust them off and set them up again...and TRUST Him... these will be great messages! Happy Easter! He is Risen!!Leannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01976256840483823480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-13918939769096190982016-03-27T12:51:04.183-04:002016-03-27T12:51:04.183-04:00Monica,

I love the way you are planning to address this, and hope to see God's truth in my life as well. I am thankful for your transparency as I see how fun your blog seems, yet I know you are a mom who struggles with life the same as I do. May you be blessed and bless others with this series. I look forward to seeing how God will work in your life (and mine) as you address this! Thank God that Jesus is enough! Happy Easter!<br />Terri S.Terri Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07726436041193936516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-34209858022429931562016-03-27T08:05:49.787-04:002016-03-27T08:05:49.787-04:00Dear sweet daughter - what a perfect theme verse f...Dear sweet daughter - what a perfect theme verse for this year of your life!
