Decisions...???

Today I made a decision.
Well actually, God has been nudging me for quite some time....
Whispering to me.....is it really important? 

So this morning, first thing ....I signed OFF my facebook account for awhile!  (I know, I know...how will I ever know what is happening????)  I think that's just the point of it all....WHY do I need to know what is happening in everyone's lives???  WHY do I spend an hour a day just reading other people's business???  WHY is it so compelling????  Of course, I have rules about going to my facebook page...like NOT until I spend time in God's word and prayer....but, REALLY...do those rules matter when I still spend time there that I could spend elsewhere???

Most of all, I think lately my eyes have just been "seeing"....words that are posted that affect others, a constant lack of communication in person..because it's so easy to just update your life in a box, or send an I'm thinking of you instant note.....

SIMPLICITY
Family
Quietness
Time

All these words have over & over again come into my heart.....and over & over again I think I should of lived in the 60's.....  :)   I Love simply being in our home, cooking in the kitchen, spending time sharing a meal with family and friends.....the quiet early morning before life gets out of control, time to be IN HIS presence.........time to make this LIFE count  :)   

And, I really MISS coming here....hitting keys and sharing my heart, stories, life.....

I truly am LOOKING forward to seeing what God reveals to me during this time....to see how I USE my time, and hoping with all that I am it GROWS me in great ways!!!  

So, maybe, just maybe you'll find a written note in the mail from me now,  or a phone call, or maybe I'll even have you over to our home for dinner.  But, most of all.....I'll still be wishing everyone a New day filled with Sweet blessings!

I am sooo glad you posted this! I miss reading your stories, etc. And I need to do the same thing.

I have not posted on my blog in ages. And also feel the need for some 'real' conversations.
