Matthew 6:33

Do you ever feel like you're falling behind? I don't just mean with the blogosphere because I don't usually feel obligated to post daily {by the way - I am so sorry for not having a Far Above Rubies post for today - I will explain further, later on}. I mean, with life. Do you ever feel like everything around you is moving so fast that you are falling behind? I feel like that right now. I feel like it's very hard to catch up because my mind is in so many different places right now. I know that there are certain hot spots in my house that need special attention right now, but I can't seem to drum up the attention to devote to them. I know it's bad of me, and I am sure some people are thinking "well, imagine that, Kristen has a messy house..." - I know there are those out there who don't think I put much effort into it, but they are wrong.

I wish I could let you all in on what is going on in our life that has thrown such a wrench into things, but I can't. While I am a strong advocate of Real Blogging, I am also an advocate of Censorship, because there are some things that just should not be talked about on the internet, especially if it can hurt other people. What I will say, though, is that things have been hard on us for the past week {and there have even been more things leading up to this that have been going on for a while - sort of snowballing}.





I'd like to ask you all to keep our family in your prayers as we are going through hardships. While I haven't felt as stressed as I am sure I could feel, it doesn't hurt to have extra support. I have continually told myself that God is in control - I know He is! Matthew 6:33 has been running through my mind a lot lately and I have been in prayer more and more each day.



God is good - always. But that does not mean that it will always be easy. We are trying to keep our chins up, our heads above water, our eyes on the goal {Heaven}.
