The Lord is forever at work.  We had quite an experience with church camp last week.  We have been going to the Awana group and to the church for the last 5 yrs.  The group of people there is a little diff. because they can be VERY cold but other times be very loving.  A couple of families have decided to choose my eldest son as a punching bag.  They are our 2 closest family friends.  At first I thought they were just being overly protective trying to make sure that he made no mistakes.  Now I have found out lies they have told about him and he was treated very badly while at camp by one of the fathers.  I have found myself a little lonely not talking to my best friend in the Lord but also a good friend.  I just found out other lies tonight that really helped me to see that it is so important to have a strong family that serves the Lord and is not afraid to stand up for one another.  This faMILY RIGHT HERE REALLY IS THE ONLY THING THAT i NEED TO BE WORRING ABOUT.  Not what others may think or what they want to blame on others for their childs mistakes.  We all answer to God for what we have done not to man.  We have all been given the free will of making our own choices.  I cannot blame others for my eldests mistakes and I cannot blame others for any strife that may leak into the house.  Wiht all this said it seems the Lord is working on moving us out of here.  Either the church groups or to a diff. area all together.

I am torn, I love this house and the friends we have made.  This old house is in definate need of some upkeep.  We could use another bedroom and more animal room.  So anyhow, I am just praying and waiting on the Lord for the next step.  Rather it be moving, or just a new church we will see.

So anyhow!!  My lids are heavy and there's still much to be done before bed.

Blessings, Dawn
