group blogs only work when people blog on them! I want to know what are you learning! 

For me, a myriad of things, but a theme lately is this: 

the Lord has been good to me and my family. I will call on His name and give Him glory. I am learning to do things I don't want to do and reforming my attitude. Because the Lord has been good to me, surely I can give Him praise and ask what's His plans for me.

it's basic, yes, but true. And I realized while I was at Grandma's funeral yesterday that I want to have the same things said about me that were said about her. A gentle spirit, always accepting and loving, and truly loving the Lord and trusting Him for every need. My grandparents' lives have been blessings to so many people because the Lord has been their focus, their all. 

I thank the Lord for my family's heritage and their love for Him. He is good. 

So yeah, things have been getting a little confusing and difficult and everything is changing, but the Lord doesn't change. He is constant in my life, in our lives, and always loving us and taking care of us. I can trust the Lord. I want to make Him proud.

Lisa, be commended for your steadfastness in trust and love for the Lord despite hardship and unwelcome or unexpected change.

And, thanks for keeping us updated! Sorry for not being more faithful to posting...
