sealing
Seeing as I kept seeing the parallel to my life in the flooding in MB, I am glad to say they are now sealing the controlled break that they made last week. I am feeling better about that :) I appreciate your prayers Jordin.
Leaking
Funny that my life seems to mirror the flooding river in MB. Yesterday one of the dikes walls started to leak. And I feel so did mine!
Also looking forward, when the waters recede there is going to be a big mess to clean up!
When it rains it pours
An update on my friend from the Aug 31st post (not that anyone would remember) but in late Aug she was in a relative crisis situation in her life. She got through this and again was doing much better and now it has circled around again and she is in a very similar crisis. One can think here we go again. Why are we stuck in the cycle of life? Why can't issues be relsolved for good? Wishing freedom could be a permanent state! But I understand that life is a learning process. And so we learn. And so we grow. And so hopefully setbacks can eventually help us progress. But sometimes it doesn't look like that!
Breach
As I watch the news about the river in Manitoba, I see a parallel to life. That at times the pressure can build up so much that maybe you need to break down a wall to relieve it. And you may not be able to tell beforehand if it will work. If it was the right place to make the cut. I feel that one of my walls has been breached. A controlled break or uncontrolled I do not know. A number of old wounds have resurfaced and feel fresh again. Time to heal again. Time to rebuild the wall. Restabalize. And hope that this break has taken enough pressure off to let balance return.
Preparing slowly
I woke up about 1:30am this morning with these words in my head "Preparing slowly for my brother's ambulance".
I really didn't know (still don't know!) what it meant but I prayed for Pearl.
I was glad I had written it down at 2am because by morning I couldn't remember the words anymore. Now I can ponder them some more and see if I can understand if they mean anything.
Seeing the end of crazy
March was a lot of upheaval and April had the crazy of exams so I am hoping that May is going to see things level out.
I have a meeting tomorrow that I've been a bit concerned about and at Church today I was thinking- what good can come from this? And we talked about faith in Church and I left feeling that it may go totally badly, but then it might not. But that I was doing the right thing and God trusts me. I'm sure I've written before that I don't know why He does that!
