God is Able

We are coming up on 42 years of Marriage--to each other. It has been

a hard slog, but divorce was never an option for either one of us. I was

38 and married ten years before I decided to grow up and take responsi-

bility for myself and my actions.Until then I was perfectly content to let

someone else handle my life including the training of my children. After

all what is the church for? The decision to grow up and become an adult

was a major turning point but change came rather slowly. I felt inadequate

on the inside as one who only had value to God, but who often doubted

God’s pleasure and acceptance of her. I was deeply into performance, but

things kept coming up to show me how poorly I played that game! The 

unfilled needs--holes-- of things like love, worth, acceptance, adequacy 

and security drove all of my relationships. Even though I have been a 

Christian since childhood, I only realized over the past ten years,

 WHO I AM IN CHRIST. He is the only source for getting my needs met.

This unfolding revelation is changing all of my relationships including the

one with Glen. God has been part of every twist and turn. 

My God is able!
