FELLOW SEEKERS:  Although I will end this post with a song from my heart, I must preface it with a cry from my heart.  For those of you who are spiritually minded, please consider the following and alert me if you "see" something that I might not.

• Our financial circumstances seem to be going from bad to worse.  Every step I take to improve things only seems to take us down further.  It feels like an out of control downward spiral.  It has seemed so for several years.
• I understand  basic spiritual priniciples and that we have a very real enemy.  I also understand that God is infinitely BIGGER.
• We are quickly reaching an impass.  The measures I have taken have been temporary fixes and it seems the dam is about to burst.
• Thank God - we are NOT talking life or death here, just finances!

Again, if you "see" a pattern, solution, response ... have a question ... ANYTHING ... please reply.  Thank you.

Someplace on this road it seems I've taken a wrong turn,

Peace is as illusive as a dream, 

Lord, I know Your hand is on us, yet I do not see,

How are we to live from day to day?

Someplace on this road it seems I've taken a wrong turn,

Fear and doubt assail me constantly.

Lord, I know Your hand is on us, yet I can not see,

What it is that You would have me be?

Open up the eyes of my understanding, Lord!

Help me see that I am where You want,

Lord, I'm Yours and You are mine for all eternity,

This I know, and none can contradict.

Am I where You want me, Father, please, I need to know,

I will follow anyplace You lead.

Still, it's hard to follow when all my walls are caving in,

Or is that just what You intend?

I will sing Your praises, Lord, today and everyday,

I'm so glad that You are in control!

All my days, my deeds, my needs are known to You, my Lord,

Can I trust You, help my unbelief!

I will sing Your praises, Lord, as long as I have breath,

Not just for what You've done, but who You are,

Your deeds are great, but greater still is knowing You are near,

Each and every step along this path.
