Mandy,
I don’t know what to say…..Thank you so much for bearing your soul to all of us. I am more excited about this even now than I have been. I can just see the Lord working…..drawing together in some cases perfect strangers, yet with so much in common. You are so right, when things are brought into the light, they aren’t hidden in darkness anymore. The enemy can ‘t lie to us anymore when we bring our weaknesses to our Father. I know it pleases Him for us to lean on Him and look to Him for our deliverance….I guess I could go on and on…..but I’ll see you tonight, God willing! You know how life is with a family!
Much Love and Blessings,
Launa
Amen to this Mandy and Amen to what Launa said! I am so glad to be able to face my sins and talk about it and learn through the scripture. I need somebody to show me and lead me … I am not new in my faith, but new in living it openly. So I praise God for having me brought to this bunch of wonderful women with whom I can share my deepest thoughts! Amen
I’m not sure if I am being impatient??
or having a ‘duh’ moment, but I can’t get the video to play. I see the image when I pull up the blog, but when I click on the ‘play’ button, the video part goes black, the play button changes to a pause button, but nothing happens?? The message bar in the lower left says ‘done’. Help???
ROCK ON! Thanks so much for being real, for showing your imperfections. Today I opened up an old incompleted journal and saw that I am emotionally in the same spot I was 2 years ago – frustrated at myself and children, feeling guilty for not being perfect or even near to it, etc. .. . I, too, am a broken record and it is through confession that I can be set free.
I will miss you all tonight, but will try and catch you another time!
Over Christmas, I had a real epiphany regarding disobedience in my own life, especially with regard for the yearning in my soul for complete–really, really REAL–freedom in Christ, and one of the verses that I really “got” for the very first time last week was Luke 9:23: “Then he said to them all: ‘If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.’ ” It seems to me that when we are manifesting some behavior that we know in our hearts is the very thing we don’t want to do, there’s a choice there that we have to make: to be willing to let go of whatever it is we’re holding on to and instead pick up the heaviness of our [addiction, default behavior, etc] and look to Him for the better way. Not for him to magically make it disappear but to experience freedom from it IN HIM. I’m even more excited about tonight after watching this, Mandy. See you soon.
Like others have said, I could see and relate in everything you said. Wondering why I keep doing things over and over. The last month I’ve been thinking about it, thinking about our families life, how to have more peace and work better together. I can so relate to having to admit that I have a weakness. That I need help. Help from him and admitting I’m not perfect. I’m so excited to join you tonight! Thanks so much for being “actual” and sharing your heart.
Love you and what you are doing!
As I was watching the video I was being constantly interrupted by two argumentative little boys fighting over one toy after another. I was beginning to feel frustrated and realized how much I need this talk tonight.I only got bits of pieces, but am going to watch it again later. I literally took a deep breath said a prayer and decided to turn it off for the sake of me and my kids. I have checked out the verses and look forward to tonight. I have some time to myself when Delvin gets home to sort out my thoughts!
My kiddos were acting up all day. Snow day and its so hard being stuck indoors. I thought i found a peaceful moment to watch the video, and thats when they started up again. Mandy, I feel like i am angry all the time. Its not just my kiddos but my husband too. I cry and cry because i want it to stop. I catch myself yelling and then i flee to my room for a time out. You are not alone! I look forward to the chat, and if im not there, would someone call me? ha! *hugs*
AAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!! It says video no longer available! Mandy? MANDY??????
@ Christy – Maybe just give it some time to load? It starts with a black screen.
@Deleise – I sent you an email. I’m not sure why it’s telling you video no longer available. You might try watching it directly from Vimeo. Here’s the link: http://vimeo.com/2802263
That was so good Mandy. It made me cry when you talked about Isaiah that he has “see our ways” There are so many times when I yell at my kids. Thank you sweet friend.
ETA: I was able to get the video, but did get the same message as deleise for a brief period this afternoon. Probably internet related or something (I was beginning to wonder if there was some spiritual warfare going on already!!) So, YEAH GOD! It all worked out!
I missed the video! It’s gone. =(
Nevermind! It decided to show up. That was a great, Mandy. You’re very courageous. =)
Agreed! Thank you for your humbleness and authenticity!
