Standing The Ground

 Recently these past few days there has been a lot of intake. There has been good but also hardship. As I thought about what my next blog would be. I thought in current status I could relate to the question, " How do I respond the status quo of relationships?" This can be one of the hardest places to stand. From Facebook to our peers we're  challenged in this area of singleness being viewed as a curse or blessing.

I have definitely felt those shoes. As I mentioned my younger sister just got married. And it has been a ride. I have felt the struggle how to respond when people have good intentions to words that are look at as casual conversations. It has definitely been shoes to walk in.  I even thought about enlisting some of things I've heard but I didn't feel that it was right. That has definitely been the area where I have had to learn that sometimes silence is better.

  At the same time one of the hardest things for me to face has not just been words but the wedding pictures that we're took.  I found it super hard to form a smile. And I felt like, " Why couldn't I compose myself?" Have you been there? I share that because when it comes to our status quo it can feel like we have to compose ourselves to what the world wants.

It is not easy my friend so as I write this I want you to know  the only way I have learn to respond is through pushing myself  to look at the " Little Victories in how God's moving." and when my emotions stir me up let them be what they are because God has given them to us. Still super hard for me to find balance in that too but  I thought that I could  leave us with:

Psalm 139 ( A classic but  it's God  who holds our status which is timeless)

Still learning to walk this Ladies but  may God use our stories!
