Netta's Place

It has been a beautiful day on Needmore Acres. The leaves are beginning to fall as they change colors. Fall reminds me of change. I don't always like change. Those of you who know me know that to be true. I don't like changing jobs, houses, cars. I don't really like to think about my girls growing up and moving out and on with their lives. I know it is necessary and a good thing, but I don't have to like it. Our family has gone through change in the last couple of years - several of them. I don't like it. I will be the first to tell you that. I don't like any of it, but it is what it is and I have to adjust. My father told one of my sibs that I would have to adjust.... and that made me so mad!!!! but what kind of Christian would I be if I didn't adjust? I have been praying about my attitude as well as other family members regarding the latest change and He has touched hearts. Let us just say that I am trying to do what He has called me to do with a servant's heart. But down deep inside, I don't have to like it, do I? Of course I do....... so I am asking that you pray for me. I don't ask that very often -- I usually request prayer for my family members or our group as a whole. But I am asking for prayer for me. I know He is working in my heart, but I have to let go of bitterness. And if you know the Garretts (which I am a part of) we don't do that well.... Do we?

With my Mama, I tried to do what I needed and wanted to do during her illness that would leave me without regrets. I want to do that with the other parts of my life as well. Thanks so much for taking time to read my wanderings.

Blessings!
