You know the feeling when you've worked so hard at something and you set your expectations way too high and then you start to realize that you shouldn't have done that? Well, that's where I am right now. Not sure if I ever want to do another Fundraiser again. This is wearing me down. It's hard to see so many "No's and unanswered RSVP's. I know it's a busy season and times are tough, but I'm tired and I just want this to end. Brent tells me all the time that we are blessed to have so many friends that care about us. I wish I was stronger. There are people attending our Fundraiser that we don't know very well and I cry when I see their names on our RSVP list. I look at our growing list and touch the names of those attending and ask a blessing over everyone. I am overwhelmed by their support. Our Fundraiser is in just a few short weeks and I'm scared, excited and nervous all at the same time. I know God will provide the funds...I know it because He said it. The evil one tries so hard to put doubts in my head, but I can't look at the "No's" on our list...I have to stay focused and look at all the friends that have said "Yes". As I write this my heart is starting to feel blessed. Will I have times of sadness? Yes. Will I have times of gladness? Yes. It's what I choose to do with my life that will make who I am. I choose "JOY".
Thank you to all my friends who are supporting us on this Journey. I am looking forward to the day that you get to meet the little ones you helped bring home.
May God Bless you.
