    Thank you, Dianne. I needed to read these words, “…but take heart, I have overcome the world.” Soothed my soul and brought me to tears. Thank you for reminding me of this promise from my Savior.
    Also, I love it that you are trying to keep up with current vernacular. THAT struggle IS real! 🙂

    You’re so cute, MA. Yes, our Savior has overcome! The only way we make it. *hugs*

  3. I love the response you gave your friends, that if they wondered if God might be displeased, that they seek Him for an answer. While I don’t believe, by any means, that God is out to punish us, He certainly does allow consequences for our sinful actions, at times. There is such a balance to be found here. He is a God of love, and yet we are told that a Father disciplines those He loves. We can go too far in either direction if we are not careful.

  4. Great post, Dianne! We need to keep the right perspective in our struggles! Jesus has overcome!

  5. Dear Diane! I can feel your frustration! Life does get in the way sometimes, but you have to admit the Lord provided! Sometimes He has a sense of humor just to see our reaction. Pat yourself on the shoulder. You took it like a trooper!
