Accusations and Comfort

It's been a long time since I wrote. I guess it's time. I don't really know how to start this blog. I've struggled this week with accusations that were placed on my family. I couldn't believe there are actual people out there that think they know my family better than I do. I was upset and furious. I felt I had the right to be. These people made me question my own trust for a certain family member that I've never doubted in my whole life. They got me questioning myself and my beliefs. I didn't know where these accusations were coming from or what they knew that I didn't. I was so angry along with a few other people. When I first heard this accusation all I could think was "God if this accusation is true, then please show me, give me a sign." "I don't want to be blind to this situation."
Sunday came.. WAKE UP CALL! I went to church and Keith Meece was preaching. I enjoy listening to him. His sermon was about strength. Strength to forgive. Not holding grudges, and confronting people in a Christian-like way and forgive for their faults. He would say you can tell someone to forgive, forgive, forgive, yet you yourself doesn't forgive. How can you want someone to do something that you can not yourself do? I was hurt and broken that Sunday and as he preached it was like he was looking right at me and my family. I knew God was telling me I needed to let it go. Yes the accusation hurt BUT God knows the truth. God wants us to live for Him everyday! I have forgiven these people and I pray that God becomes more prevalent in their lives....... Enough on that subject..
Here are some things I can catch you up on. I caught up with a friend last Friday night. We had dinner at Applebees and went to see Bride Wars, which was good. I enjoyed her company. We use to have our "date nights" all the time but I went away to school and we just got busy with life. She's a good friend that I know I can always count on!
I started school yesterday! YUCK! I left my house around 7:15 am and I got home around 8 pm. I was a long day. So today I only had one class and it didn't start till 930 so I got to sleep in a little bit longer than Monday! Tonight I worked for a little bit and then decided I was bored so I shut down early. :)
WO WO ..to all my bachelor addicts(my friends) wasn't last nights show awesome! :) random I know..
I want to wish Jim a happy birthday! I know he's not physically here but it's on my mind today! My dad went out to his grave today because Jamie had told him that she put some chimes on his grave. I bet they sound beautiful. :) Continue to pray for their family! I know we all miss him dearly!
I need to head to bed I have another busy day tomorrow with school, work, and the Y.
Hope everyone is enjoying their week.
God Bless!
