This is where you discover me...and then get to know me...all for FREE! The beginning of this blog, up until date 4-7-05, was geared toward Writing.Com and was a journal before the site gave us the blog option. Thus, it may not make sense. But I ask that you forge through and meet the strange characters and happenings that make up my daily life, my trials and my joys.

Found Lady

Sorry.

I am fully aware that it has been, oh so long, since my last post.

But, two days of Lady missing found her back in the yard safe and well. She has developed the ability to leap our five foot fence, honed it, actually, into a fine talent, and escapes regularly. Too regularly and so now she is bound indoors and let out for monitored potty breaks but she's back.

I had wept and cried out to God, pleaded with Him, that I had to know if Lady was home or not before we went to Disneyland the next day. I cried and cried and begged and begged and I felt Him reassure me that she would be home and all would be all right. I didn't want to believe that, though, because I didn't want to seem like I was sure of something that wasn't God but was me trying to comfort myself.

It was God.

My brother called at six or so in the morning and let Mom know that he had gotten home from work and that Lady was in the yard. I had fun in Disneyland, secure in the knowledge that my pooch was safe and sound, that God had heard my plea and had answered me in the moment and that my friend Dawn would be feeding the pooch over the weekend (she was SO worried, too, and did a great deal of searching for the little runaway!). All in all, it was a lesson in loss and trust and believing in His words of comfort and reassurance no matter what.

It's all for His glory either way!

Cheers!
