Life Changes...

Humphrey the hummingbird loves my flower arrangements!

Kyle on his roof, Darryl in the window keeping him company.

Veg burger and steak fries I made.

100% Vegan dinner at Chive Kitchen in Farmington Hills.

Individual quiches; one of the things I made for our 4th of July celebration.

Flowers for Humphrey.

In my last post I talked about leaving my church, and my worship role there.  It was a very sad time for me.  Leaving a church is no fun.  

At the same time I was feeling sad about leaving my church and losing friends, I also lost my daughter.  She didn’t die, but she chooses to be dead to me, and she told me after a barrage of "hate" text messages to never contact her again.  With her goes my grandson.  A double stab to the heart.  

I’ve definitely lost a lot lately.  Church.  Friends.  Family members.  

Life changes, but God doesn’t.  I’m writing a new song about it.  God is getting me through these life changes, and through the sadness.  I’m still so sad, but He is giving me peace to get by.  

This month should be interesting for me.  Darryl is going away again for the whole month, just like he did in April.  I hope I don’t go crazy; no church to go to, no friends to talk to, no songs to practice for worship…

God, it’s just me and You this month.  Keep me close.  I’d really like to finish my song and make it beautiful.  I’d really like to find healing through the music and words.  And maybe someday it can help someone else through an emotionally trying time.
