Crossroads
Posted
The song above brings back many memories.....When I here many of Don Mclean's songs I think of my Dad. In his study listening to music and reading books.... I am taken back to the time after my Mom left my Dad and visiting my Dad and brothers during the summer or Christmas. Both joy and sorrow penetrates me as I listen. Good thoughts of my Dad and Gods goodness in him. And then the pain of brokenness.
Recent visit from my Dad brought me back to the days back when....the ups and the downs...To now. My relationship with my Dad the back and forth blame of the divorce going on within me through the years. Then our beliefs and different realizations. It is OK if I don't see everything in the manner that he sees them. It doesn't make him or I any worse of a person. We all (children of God) have our journeys that we travel different roads take us different places and God can actually be guiding us different direction but yet together with a common goal. My Dad is such a beautiful person, As an adult it use to pain me if I found that I viewed things different or if he found he viewed something differn't than I. I am learning to let go of that and continue to travel as well as continue to learn from him in so many ways. Also learning to listen to God soft voice in where he would have me go on this journey we call life with my children as a mother and wife as well as child of God. Yes the voice is soft many things of this world crowds it out....Where Lord would you have me go today??
Today I feel as though I am in a Crossroads. Choices, which way to go?? Do I continue to home school my children or not. Where do I go with carrier and home life?? What is the best for my children?? What should I do?? Can I do it?? I believe God is putting a lot of things in my life to help show me the way as well as give me the strength. Much uncertainty right now, taking one step at a time. One goal for sure for me right now is to get my house in order, me in order (seek God in all things) and my household. Get organized, de-clutter, get in better routines and help the children do the same. By this summer I intend to have much of that accomplished...And maybe by then or before then I will know what road to take on different things. Hope you will join me as I travel and may we travel together where ever that road takes me or you.
Thanks for stopping by R road we travel!
